I used to love this movie a lot growing up, and then all these fuckers I knew started falling in love with it once the hip-hop community started referencing it pretty heavily about 8 years ago or so.
I can barely stand watching it now because it feels so cliché.
Why look up to failures.
You are only supposed to appreciate Tony Montana for having a shred of morals, and then realize that those morals is what gets him killed. You can't have it both ways, and this movie shows it. You can't be a cold-blooded killer 75% of the time and expect to make it out of the game.
It's killed or be killed and Scarface forgot that.
Look up to Sosa, a real motherfucker who handles his business correctly.
Come on pelican!!!
(Haha, that may be my favourite part of the movie when Tony says that though.)
Tony is appeals to the humane side of movie goers. They justify glorifying him because he lived fast, beat up on his wife and sister, killed people including his best friend but wouldn't kill kids.
