Probably THE best gangster movie ever made

Rating: 10/10 (10 December 2001)

Tony Montana(the never-better Al Pacino) along side his best friend Manny Ray(Steven Bauer) come to America from Cuba. They quickly rise to power and become two of the most powerful gangsters in all of Miami.

This is probably my favorite gangster movie with the underrated "Hoodlum" being my first. Al Pacino should have gotten an Oscar nomination for his awesome performance as Tony Montana. His portrayal is that of a person who simply wants to succeed in his life and escape his horrid past under communism. The only problem with that is that he's going about all the wrong ways of doing it. Viewers should also be warned about the excessive violence in this movie. I mean the famous chainsaw scene certainly is something. Brian De Palma really should have gotten an Oscar for Best Director for direction in this movie is slick. I would also like to point out that a lot of gangster rappers love this movie. Most notably rapper Scarface.
This movie also has some of the best quotes in movie history like:
Tony Montana -"say hello to lil' friend!"
Tony Montana -"this country is just like a giant p***y, it's just waiting to get f****d."
The "f" word is used quite a lot to.
10/10
