![Scarface (2 Disc Special Edition) [DVD]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91xEbABldFL.jpg)






Product Description This re-make of the 1932 Howard Hawks classic has up-and-coming gangster Tony Montana (Al Pacino) arriving in Miami as a Cuban refugee. With his friend Manny (Stephen Bauer), Tony carries out a hit on a politician, earning him the gratitude of drug dealer Frank Lopez (Robert Loggia). Tony rises rapidly in the 'organization', but courts disaster when he becomes involved with Lopez' cocaine-addicted wife, Elvira (Michelle Pfeiffer). .co.uk Review Brian De Palma's update of the classic 1932 crime drama by Howard Hawks, Scarface is a sprawling epic of bloodshed and excess that sparked controversy over its outrageous violence when released in 1983. It's a wretched, fascinating car wreck of a movie, starring Al Pacino as a Cuban refugee who rises to the top of Miami's cocaine-driven underworld, only to fall hard into his own deadly trap of addiction and inevitable assassination. Scripted by Oliver Stone and running nearly three hours, it's the kind of film that can simultaneously disgust and amaze you (critic Pauline Kael wrote "this may be the only action picture that turns into an allegory of impotence"), with vivid supporting roles for Steven Bauer, Michelle Pfeiffer, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, and Robert Loggia. --Jeff Shannon

Scarface Bluray:Cigar Box
Scarface The World is YoursThis seminal eighties gangster movie is both a product of its time and a put down of the industry that created it.All Pacino excellent in a largely repulsive role, he by his own admission plays Tony Montana in 'two dimensions',He is supported very ably a profane script (which no apology should be made for-if you can't cope with the 'F' word, don't buy this.His co-stars across the board are excellent-Michelle Pfeiffer, then a rising star, Steven Bauer, again on the rise.The older stars predominately working actors whom got given a larger audience through their exposure on Scarface.Mark Margolis as Alberto, Robert Loggia as Frank (Montana's sponsor), the late Paul Shenar as Alexander Soza , Pacino's friend and enemy. Mary Elizabeth Mastronatio as Gina, Tony's sister.Beautifully lit by John A Alonzo, edited and embroiled in controversy (much as Pacino's Cruising had been three years earlier), this gangster movie has grown in stature , after a critical hammering.After 1st seeing this movie on video, then wide screen video, and then DVD and finally blu ray.Which finally does John A Alonzo's lighting some real justice and Brian De Palma's direction justice.This cigar box set is worth buying if you are die hard Scarface fan, in a faux cigar box set-containing photographThis, a money clip and a Green card .Three versions of Scarface (blu ray, digital and DVD of 1932 original).Well worth looking out for but don't pay silly money for it.

A classic.
Not much to say that hasn't already been said about this film. It's a classic rise and fall gangster flick. Ive always liked it and wanted a bluray copy. With regard to the triple play set my digital copy downloaded fine (march 2013) even though on the card it said code may not work after Sept 2012.

The DVD is yours!.
Anyone who has seen this movie needs no description or introduction - I once owned the single disc to this immortal 80's crime drama, not much of an issue. But the bonus material (available on a second disc), was all the encouragement needed to purchase this "double disc" special edition, which provides the essential bonus material to an unmissable movie - 9/10!.
