Quick review of Carlito's Way (Enhanced Edition) (DVD)

The acting, dialogue, plot and beautiful soundtrack make this film almost perfect. I would say better than Scarface. ...

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 ...
...Puerto-Rican ex-con, Carlito Bringante, is released from prison on a legal technicality. He is seen as a legend in the criminal world, the same world that is shocked by his decision to go straight. He takes a job managing a low-life nightclub and even re-kindles an old romance but finds himself being dragged back by his past connections and the absurd contrivances of his lawyer and best friend. After several of his associates and even some 'wannabe' ...
