Review

this is the original scarface. although it’s good for it’s time and had some good comic relief, it doesn’t compare to the depalma/pacino version. pacino is far more convincing than whoever played tony in this version. the very beginning of this version was good – it cited the movie as an indictment against our government and it’s people for not having done anything to stem the crime tide. watch it if you are interested in seeing how “scarface” started.
