Review of Scarface (1983) by Jay K — 27 Aug 2013
The quintessential 80s gangster movie. Scarface is the suitably violent tale of Cuban immigrant Tony Montana's rise and fall in the drug world of Miami. From humble beginnings in a refugee camp tied to the real life Cuban crime wave, to the kingpin lifestyle that truly embodies the words "The World is Yours," Montana's own human fallacy of arrogance is a real depiction of how unforgiving the world is.
The action in the closing scene is brilliant (and Al Pacino's memorable quote is quite epic), and it truly makes for a deservedly entertaining finale to a classic movie. Do yourself a favor and watch this in an Uncensored format, be a use if you don't, half the dialogue will be bleeped out.
