The World Is Yours!

Rating: 10/10 (31 March 2020)

Now I may be a biased fan of the 80's over the top crime drama and action stuff, but I'll give you this as straight as possible: Scarface is up there as one of the best movies that came out of the 80s. It had everything from cocaine cowboys to Brian De Palma's way of showing violence. From Tony Montana's brash, overconfident personality to Robert Loggia and Michele Pffeifer's beautiful, lively acting.
Al Pacino really contradicted himself over here with the Antonio Montana character, compared to his other prominent role: Don Michael Corleone. And it really shows how much work he has put under his acting and accent to get things right. He has his own way of bringing life to a middle-aged cuban spic who most people wouldn't bat an eye on if it weren't for Pacino himself.
This movie also does the action sequences the right way instead of relying it all on CGI. The lighting is perfect and really sets the mood for the 80s. The music is fabulous and it is written by none other than the great Giorgio Moroder himself! No wonder that every time someone hears the intro tune, they instantly feel like taking over the world.
A very worthy 3 hour watch in my opinion. Also if you liked this movie, you might like The Untouchables as well
