Review of Scarface (1932) by Lavelle — 14 Jan 2013
Highly entertaining, but I still don't get why all those rap guys idolize Tony Montana so much. Sure he was a bad-ass, but what goes up must come down. Tony just comes down with a mountain of coke on his desk.
His over-the-top characterization and the feel of the sets and secondary performances really act to date this film, but what can you really expect from an epic written by Oliver Stone? This is fun to watch, but ultimately it's just a little silly, even when it's trying to be serious.
