Has there ever been such a great movie that really has no business being this good? Realistically speaking, the accents used by Al Pacino and especially Steven Bauer (he played Manny, Tony Montana's best friend) are laughable and if they were used in a movie today would definitely be ridiculed. Also, the iconic last scene is quite ridiculous but everyone shrugs it off by saying "he was on a lot of coke". Despite all of this, I love Scarface and everything about it. It is solely responsible for 60% of all ill-advised purchases by rappers and pro athletes (watch any Cribs episode and you'll see this), the inspiration for one of the best video games of all time - GTA: Vice City (Fuck you Lance) and even an awful song by Future (the remix by Drake is bearable only because of Drizzy's verse). The one thing Scarface has done that I hate is it has let every single guy think they can do a Tony Montana impression. You can't. No one can do it but Al Pacino. Anyone else who does it sounds like a mentally challenged Latino speaking broken English. That's my mini-rant of the week. Hit the jump for the songs.
