"Scarface" is a very strange film. It is waaay over the top, yes, but

it rings true, perhaps because the lives of men such as Tony Montana are strange!
I think the depiction of the kind of monster a man such as he must become was far more accurate: as I've mentioned before, having Al portray Michael as some sort of regular business-Joe that just HAD to take over Dad's murderous business isn't realistic and IS amoral.
Don't get me wrong, I find the Godfather films (the first two only, of course) immensely entertaining. But the nihilism is ugly, very ugly.
