@PAWG Life you know what a haza is ???? It's a pig that don't fly straight, that's you you white bytch loving Cockaroach NEGGED!!!
Carlito's way is "better" but it isn't as entertaining as Scarface. And I watch movies for entertainment
The part where Carlito has the chase scene in the train station is more entertaining than any scene in Scarface
Scarface is more popular and iconic but I definitely agree that Carlito’s Way was a better film.
The chase at the train station and the pool scene when he gets out are brilliant scenes.
I also like the prison escape attempt in the boat. Sean Penn was terrific in that role.
You have to take in consideration the time and era
Scarface was 80's excess, and De Palma's height as a bad boy of cinema or whatever, he was coming of Dressed To Kill, right? And Did Body Double right after. He was chasing those highs of violence, sex, in a word, excess. It was the 80's. The themes are greed, violence, capitalism, it's a swing for the fences movie. It's big, ugly, larger than life in every moment.
At all. Scarface's appeal ages like milk.This isn't a controversial or debatable take.
Might be Travolta's best movie lowkey.A little off-topic but I want to recommend De Palma’s ‘Blow Out’, which was done a couple years before Scarface.
I don't think anyone actually thought Scarface was a great film. Its like the white version of Belly or State PropertyRecently watched both these films back to back cause i've been going back and watching some of De Palma's films again
Scarface was like a b movie with unintentional comedy
only thing i'll give Scarface props for is the dialogue/screenplay Oliver Stone wrote for it, he was a great screenwriter in his heyday.
but Scarface reminds me of one those low budget ass movies you'd see back in the 90's on a Saturday on a non cable channel and you'd watch out of boredom
Carlito's Way takes a huge shyt on Scarface in every way.
De Palma and Pachino got it right with Carlito's Way; the screenplay (screenwriter Koepp), the acting, the setting and even the humor was on point.
Eehy dog has it's dayNegged for cokehead babble
Cool
however i realize it may not be a popular opinion since Scarface is the more popular film among a lot of people.
