Why so much love for this pile of crap?

This is a really intense movie. I think some people have such a negative reaction to it because it is so intense, if you allow yourself to get absorbed in it and don't worry about what the *beep* it's rated on IMDb. Very few movies have ever come close to portraying a man with a dark side like this one. I am not big on crime dramas, but Scarface is one hell of an epic movie. In my opinion, it is even better than Goodfellas.

He's still lookin' goood, eatin' them sandwiches all the tiiiime.

I just finished watching it for the first time and I think it's an incredible movie.

I don't think it's overacted or ridiculous. Al Pacino did a great job. He brought Tony Montana to life in a dynamic and memorable way. He created an icon character with legendary bravado. That's what attracts people. Dynamic anti-heroes symbolize guts to go against the system and be uncontrolled. The movie doesn't glorify this wild outlaw. He loses in every possible way so, even those who admire Tony's guts surely must grasp his criminality and self-degradation.

The plot is good. I like the writing. The visuals and symbolism are nice. It's a well put together and structured film. Better than a lot of trash put out today.

I agree with those who said it's a classic. I think it deftly captures the greed, desperation and tragedy that befalls those who misinterpret the American Dream.

I would watch it again... and again... and again.

It's entertaining. And Al Pacino is mesmerizing. Not necessarily a great film (and it doesn't feel like DePalma to me), but extremely watchable.

It's like an R-rated B-movie.

The Tumblr generation all up in here...

The thing about SCARFACE is it's just really boring. That's the truth of the matter.
