Is actually pretty sh*te.
For a movie that recieves such high praise in most video shops and reviews, it was shockingly bad. So Al Pacino wants to be a gangster, and it's a pretty cool character, but the story hardly needs the generous 140 minutes it takes. I didn't even get to the "amazing" end scenes, but frankly, I was so bored by that point I just didn't care...
Did it just strike me as being a pretty crap film or do you agree?

Also, for anyone who wants a good thriller with fantastic acting, you have to check out Leon... Jeon Réno is fantastic, seriously. Portman plays about as flat a character as possible, but, to be honest, even the annoying 13 year old girl can't ruin it.

It's good but highly overrated in my opinion.
My personal favourite Pacino performance would have to be Serpico.

You suck gorilla tities Coin. You know NOTHING.
Scarface was utter genius. It was made in the 80's so don't expect LOTR type CGI. Everything about it has a reason, from the clothes to the cheesy music.
Go watch some Spy Kids, fool.

Scarface is my favourite and the most awesomely brilliant piece of genius film-making in the history of the world ever.
So there.
So there.
And how did the Godfather rate it?

Nope, it's just you. It's one of the best films I've ever seen, I rate it as highly as The Godfather.

Whats a Gayby? A gay or bisexual?
Anyone who's looking for a good thriller ... or anyone who's looking for anything ... and hasn't found Leon yet, is a gayby.
