Best film ever!

Rating: 10/10 (12 September 2002)

Scarface ,for me is more than a movie! Any film that can be watched 250 odd times and still enthrall has to go down as one of the best. Intense, operatic, melodramatic, overblown and frankly insane! More than any other film, it builds momentum from sceane to sceane, chugging forward from a slow start to climaxe with perhaps the most memorable ending in cinama history. Pacino is my faverout actor, by far, and its a testament to his performance that when I watch it I forget Im watching Pacino - as the tagline goes..."Al Pacino IS Tony Montana". He becomes Tony. He nails the role in a way no-one else possibley could have.
No film has ever had so many memorable quotes - every scene is taut, with such vehement tension - the acting, the script, the music, direction; everything has 11/10 writen all over it.
You'll either love it hate it. Nah'm sayin'?
