Well I finally decided to create my own reviews thread. I will be reviewing movies that are not well known by us here at MoFo or the newest junk i rent from the video store. I've decided to review SCARFACE as a warm-up to this thread so any suggestions are appreciated and here's my 1st review :
SCARFACE
Scarface is the legendary remake of the 1932 hit which starred Paul Muni as a prohibition era gangster. This time around Scarface benefits from the brilliant acting from Al Pacino. The film is set in the 1980s in sunny Miami, Florida where Pacino playing Cuban Tony Montana makes his way to the top of the Miami drug trade.
An excellent supporting cast surrounds Pacino in this crime masterpiece. Michelle Peiffer, Steven Bauer, Robert Loggia, and who could forget Paul Shener as Alejandro Sosa. The film depicts the rise and fall of an American gangster with stunning realism.
Written to perfection by Oliver Stone and superbly directed by Brian De Palma, SCARFACE easily scores a solid 10/10.
Well there it is folks, whadda think?
