Scarface

CriticsCritics: 71
AudienceAudience: 8.4

A Cuban immigrant arrives in Miami and rises through the drug trade, building a powerful empire through ambition and violence. As police pressure, cartel conflicts, and drug-fueled paranoia mount, his pursuit of power threatens everything around him.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy intense, stylized crime dramas about ambition and excess, especially GoodFellas or Heat; Not for you if graphic violence, profanity, and larger-than-life characters are off-putting.
