Better than The Godfather?
Don't mind me, I'm just here to stir up debate.
shareIt`s not better - or worse. Has a greater rewatchability though.

damn , my thoughts exactly !
no it doesnt even compare to copolla's masterpiece , but it's awesome , i may like it more than godfather , but it's not better , it's more entertaining though (just not a full form of art and masterpiece)
More fun to watch for sure, and I do prefer it.

I agree that it is more re-watchable comparing to The Godfather Trilogy, considering it was more "fun" and faster paced. But comparing the qualities of those films, I don't think Scarface is nowhere near The Godfather Trilogy. The Godfather is an almost 10 hour long Trilogy, has much more depth comparing to Scarface. It has numerous unforgettable characters that will always be among the literature, like Michael, Vito and Fredo Corleone. Scarface is more of a one man show. But I certainly think it deserved the best motion picture Oscar aswell as the best leading actor.
shareSCARFACE: 8/10
THE GODFATHER: 7/10
No chance.
shareYep, that is correct.
sharei give both a 10/10 (i don't hand that rating out much either. about 24 times out of 1750+ total movies i have seen) and with that said...
in some ways i like The Godfather more but in some ways i like Scarface more. i can't clearly say which i like more but Scarface does have some laughs in it here and there which is a nice bonus and has a fair amount of memorable scenes and in that dept it's higher than The Godfather even though the movies as a whole are pretty close for me. but i think if i was forced to choose i might lean towards Scarface at the moment but it's not definitive.
p.s. i just finished re-watching Scarface as the last time i re-watched it was roughly 3-4 years ago (i know it was sometime before Dec 27th 2011 as since that date i been keeping track of all movies i watch) and it's still top notch.
