One of the arguably best gangster movies with Al Pacino Scarface. After years of diplomatic silence between the United States and Cuba Castro opens up the port between them. He lets the refugees immigrate to the United States and chase the American dream but at the same time he also opens up the over packed prisons and lots of prisoners in Cuba get into the United States. One of them was Tony Montana who makes it into Miami with his best friend Manny. They start working at some low paying job washing dishes but Tony has bigger dreams he wants money power and respect and he’s willing to do anything to get it. They meet gangster Frank Lopez and start doing work for him. Tony starts to quickly learn the game and is good at it. Soon he starts making his way up and Frank loves him because he is making more money for them. But that still wasn’t enough for Tony he wanted to make it to the top and be his own boss. He figures out that he can make more money on his own and that he was going to do his own thing. So he kills his boss and marries his mistress. He becomes a very wealthy man buying expensive cars and living in a mansion. His mom and sister also lived in Miami but his mom didn’t speak to Tony or didn’t even want to see him ever since he got locked up in Cuba. He goes to their house to visit his family and his mom doesn’t accept his money because she knew it wasn’t good money. This movie is a good movie and the actors did their part like they were supposed to. I would say this is the best movie that Al Pacino was in . His performance was at its best and he played the character Tony Montana like it was supposed to be played. His motivation in the movie was money and power. Tonys best friend in the movie Manny also played his part well. He wasn’t as crazy as Tony was but he went along with him. He fell in love with Tony’s sister and that causes some problems later in the movie. The main theme in the movie is just not to be too greedy and money can do some crazy things to people. Most people who watch this movie love it and watch it many times after that. This is the best gangster movie that I have seen and it is worth watching. If you watch it you probably will watch it many times after that.
