a classic

Rating: 10/10 (1 March 2005)

One of the classic movies of our times - Al Pacino deliver the uncontrollable and unpredictable Toni Montana in a way no one else could. A required movie for anyone who calls himself a "movie fan"... The movie is long but the story is gripping and you'll find yourself vary satisfied in the end. Brian De Palma does an excellent job directing this masterpiece and certainly deserved an Oscar for it (as well as old man Al). The special edition DVD also contains a good deal of detail on how the movie was made and I found it quite interesting. The storyline is also interesting from a political point of view given the time when it was made.
