Scarface: The World is Yours

Scarface a thriller, gangster, love, and betrayal movie directed by Brian De Palma is a great over the top film. It has lot of creativity from being in a hard core gangster scene to killing someone but ending it with a little bit of humor by Al Pacino saying a funny comment. Its rough, it’s bloody, and it’s is excellent.
Throughout the movie, one’s eyes are wide opened not blinking to see what will come next. Al Pacino playing Tony Montana is a likeable bad guy. He is a killer, a drug addict, but at the same time he is so great and so powerful that one just has to love him. The way he talks with his accent and with such sarcasm really makes a person enjoy the actor and respect him in a good way. Scarface starts out as a Cuban immigrant being able to be free, getting off in the ports of Miami. He talks his way into being let into the country. In doing some extra work he gets his green card automatically. As he starts out as nothing, Manny his co-partner, Steven Bauer, convinces him to deal and help out in the gangster life. They become big, Tony becomes the King of the yeyo and he gets the power, but he is confident and has too much of an ego . He gets the girl, the money, the drugs, and the liquor, but for caring too much about getting more of that stuff and the power he looses it all. Al spices up the movie a lot more with his Cuban accent, sometimes not even understanding half of the things he says but one is still there, one is still going along with everything he does and says. Scarface is a Bad Hero, but as much as he is hated in the movie and does bad stuff, when he dies the audience does not get excited and say, “Yes, they killed him.” Instead it is a “oh no! They killed him” Tony cared for the people, he didn’t want to kill anyone, but when things got out of control he had to. Scarface wanted the world to be his, that was his goal.
Scarface is very violent and is enjoyable to many, but at the same time it might not be pleasing to others. De Palma for many made this movie a success and really gave the audience something to talk about after the film. The movie is all so real, the love story, the violence, the drugs, and relationship between the people. Even the lines are memorable. This movie is for people who like real world movies, gangsters, Al Pacino, and violence. It is not for people who are not into seeing blood, hearing loud surprising gun shots, and annoying Cuban accents with cocaine. Other wise this could be one of the best films ever made for many and one of the most disliked films ever made for others.
