 Scarface review (1983) Pacino - Qwipster's Movie Reviews

Scarface is most memorable for the incredible performance by Pacino, and as a whole, it's a well-crafted, if somewhat overlong, morality tale.
Brian De Palma's (Dressed to Kill, Phantom of the Paradise) updating of Scarface is one of those films that runs the gamut from "all-time favorite" to "worst film I've ever seen" among critics and non-critics alike.
