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...

...towards the end when he realises that there is only so much that he can do to forge a brotherly relationship with Raymond.
I really enjoyed this film and it's definitely one that you are likely to want to watch more than once.
As the DVD I have is the Collector's Edition there are a number of extras that are all worth taking a look at. These include:
The journey of Rain Man featurette
The Fog: a look at the mysteries of autism
Audio commentaries by director Barry Levinson and writers Barry Morrow and Ronald Bass
Deleted scenes
Photo gallery
Original trailer
If you are into watching the extras I definitely recommend the first two featurettes.
The SpecialeditionDVD is available on Amazon for £5.88. It has a 15 rating and a running time of 128 minutes....

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....
