Scarface

HE LOVED THE AMERICAN DREAM. WITH A VENGEANCE.

After getting a green card in exchange for assassinating a Cuban government official, Tony Montana stakes a claim on the drug trade in Miami. Viciously murdering anyone who stands in his way, Tony eventually becomes the biggest drug lord in the state, controlling nearly all the cocaine that comes through Miami. But increased pressure from the police, wars with Colombian drug cartels and his own drug-fueled paranoia serve to fuel the flames of his eventual downfall.

    The perfect blend of action, humor, and heart. One of the best movies I've seen in years.

    Way too long and dragged out. It had potential, but it lost me halfway through.

  • Lilith Hester
    Too much focus on special effects and not enough on the story. It felt like a missed opportunity.

    An emotional rollercoaster. The soundtrack was beautiful and really added to the experience.

  • Silas Butler
    The plot was full of holes, and the acting felt forced. I had higher expectations.
