Scarface is my all-time favorite film, Starring Al Pacino as gangland mobster Tony Montana. His rise from the rough streets of Cuba to the top of Miami's drug fuelled empire. Tony Montana wanted it all wealth, power and control, he was living this life, which they call the American Dream.
This film is surely a true great. It's greed for wealthness would make you envious. There's always a saying for people like Tony, ' the person that wants too much from life, risk ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Scarface (DVD)
Advantages: Stacks upon stacks of extra features. Disadvantages: Unecessary inclusion of 4:3 ratio version.
Now, Men in Black was already a superb film. What has always been good about it is it's perfect suitability to just plonk yourself down and watch it on the spur of the moment.
With the incredible amount of extra features included on this DVD you will be plonking yourself down for a considerable time to come.
All of the features are perfectly matched to the style of the film. My particular favourites are the out-takes (an excellent one involving the out of control ball seen - without the ball) and the scene editing workshop. At least you can have a go at putting a film together.
My only criticism is that the whole DVD fills you with a feeling of greed and you can't help but want more. ...
Advantages: Impressve cast list, smith's previous efforts Disadvantages: Too much going on, doesn't work on my DVD player, may offend

THE STORY: -
When two fallen angels, Bartleby (Ben Affleck) and Loki (Matt Damon) who have been banished from heaven by God (Alannis Morrisette), find about about a religious loophole that will allow them to return to heaven, it is up to a band of mis-fits to try and stop them.
The good guys comprise of two stoner's Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith) as mis-guideed prophets who must help a women (Linda Fiorentino) get to the church where the Angels plan to ascend, the 13th Apostle (Chris Rock), the muse Serendipity (Salma Hayek) and now and again the voice of god the Mettatron (Alan Rickman) provides sagely advice to the group.
Opposing them is the Golgothan (a sh@t demon), a fallen muse Azrael (Jason Lee) and the sygian triplets.
The only thing the angels don't realise is ...

Plot
A Rodgers and Hammerstein classic revolving around a forbidden love affair between a native girl and a young American sailor on a Pacific island during World War II.

The musical follows the spunky Nellie Forbush, a World War II nurse stationed on a tropical island in the Pacific. Nellie meets a French plantation owner and falls in love with the mysterious man whose lifestyle is so different from her own Little Rock roots. Lt. Joseph Cable, a marine sent to the island with top-secret plans to spy on the nearby Japanese fleet, becomes friends with a local merchant, Bloody Mary, she brings him to the enchanted island of Bali Ha'i, where she introduces him to her daughter an exotic beauty he soon becomes enamored with. The lovely tropical location is the perfect backdrop to showcase Rodgers & Hammerstein's mesmerising score, which includes the classic songs 'Some Enchanted Evening', 'Bali Ha'i', 'There Is Nothin' Like a Dame', 'Younger Than Springtime', 'A Cock-eyed Optimist', and 'I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outta My Hair'.
