From the director of 'Scarface' comes the critically acclaimed crime thriller 'Carlito's ... more
Way'. Oscar winner Al Pacino gives an electrifying
performance as former drug kingpin Carlito
Brigante, who is sprung from prison by his
high-powered attorney (Academy Award winner Sean
Penn). He stuns the New York underworld by vowing
to go straight from a history of violence, but his
plans are underminded by misguided loyalties and
an outmoded code of honor. In a life-or-death
battle, Carlito takes on the relentless forces
that refuse to let him go. Co-starring John
Leguizamo and Luis Guzman, Carlito's Way is a
powerful, action-packed ride all the way to its
explosive conclusion.

Full review

The DVD version I have of this has no extras but its one of those films that is just worth buying and watching although a special edition would be nice.

The film is a gangster film but is different to the usual films of this genre - it opens with Carlito ( Al Pacino) being shot at a train station and narrating the story of how he got there as he is wheeled down the platform by the medics.

Its set in 1970's New York hence Pacinos stylish leather mac and beard and tells the tale of Carlito Brigante - a legendary Hispanic gangster who gets sprung from prison on a technicality by his oily lawyer Kleinman (an exceptional and unrecognisable Sean Penn). Carlito is through with crime and has a dream of buying into a used car dealership with someone he met in prison. This would get him out of New York and down to the coast.

No-one believes him - especially the DA who goes to desperate lengths to get evidence that will put Carlito back behind bars. As a favour for an old friend Carlito agrees to run a nightclub as the current manager is on the take due to gambling debts. He agrees on the condition that everything is above board and he only stays until he has raised his cut to buy into his dream and then he is gone.

Nothing runs this smoothly though and everyone seems to be desperate to get Carlito back in - his first mistake is to go along with his young cousin on a routine drug deal as his cousin feels it will make him look good to go in there with a legend. This particular set-piece is brilliantly done and ends with everyone but Carlito dead.

This is where everything starts to go downhill for him - the only light he has is Gail, the woman he fell for before being busted, he never told her what he did or where he went as he didn't want her seeing him in prison. Hence her frostiness towards him when he shows up at her dance-class.

Soon everyone is wanting a piece of Carlito, including a young punk on his way up, "Benny Blanco from the Bronx", who crosses Carlito in his club and Carlito makes the mistake of not killing him....

To give anymore away would spoil a lost gem of a film made by people at the top of their games - Pacinos world-weary performance anchors the film and along with Brian De Palmas excellent and stylish direction, Sean Penns amazing performance and a brilliant and involving storyline this makes for an instant and underrated classic of the genre.

Review of Carlito's Way (Enhanced Edition) (DVD) by icarus_falls69

My favourite film of all time! this one has it all. Pacino delivers an amazing performnce in this De Palma gangster film. Pacino plays a heroine king pin in the New Your hispanic world of organised crime who is trying to get out. Sean Penn in support gives a great performance as the sheister lawer. The acting, dialogue, plot and beautiful soundtrack make this film almost perfect. I would say better than Scarface.

Review of Carlito's Way (Enhanced Edition) (DVD) by n4ballack

Advantages: great story, great actors, great lines
Disadvantages: none whatsoever

Pacino and DePalma reunite and the result is once again phenomenal. "Carlito's Way" is a tasteful combination of a great story told by a master filmmaker; astounding actors skillfully playing some truly fascinating characters; a wide range of flawless film techniques and some truly great one-liners. I would recommend this film to Scarface fans, Gangster movie fans and anyone with a taste for outstanding performances. This truly is a captivating and ...

DVD Description

Notorious Puerto Rican heroin dealer Carlito Brigante (Al Pacino) is released from jail on a technicality thanks to the manipulations of his sleazy lawyer buddy (Sean Penn). All he wants is to keep his nose clean and earn enough money to start a business in the Bahamas--and maybe rekindle romance with his old flame, played by Penelope Ann Miller. Instead he finds himself back in trouble as a result of old-world codes of honour and misguided loyalties. It all takes place in 1975 Manhattan, in and around a nightclub Carlito manages, so there's plenty of classic disco music pulsing on the soundtrack. John Leguizamo plays one of the younger generation of hoodlums out to prove something. Viggo Mortensen and Luis Guzman star as a couple of Carlito's buddies from the old days. Brian De Palma, who directed Pacino a decade earlier in SCARFACE, makes this seem almost like that film's sequel. As expected, there's plenty of elaborate tracking shots and suspenseful set pieces, most memorably a pulse-pounding chase through Grand Central Station. It's adapted from two novels by New York Supreme Court Judge Edwin Torres based on his childhood in East Harlem.
