Scarface
When I saw this film, I had recently seen the original Scarface, so it was a little repetitive for me. However, I must recognize it has mythical scenes (the chainsaw, the last scene, some sentences)... Itīs a good product, and although some weak points, itīs a popular reference of all times: just see what members of Camorra say in Gomorrah...

What I liked most: the couple De Niro-Pesci (great Pesci, mainly at the beginning talking about the desert), also the role of Sharon Stone. Problem: as a lot of films from Scorsese, it is a long story about rising and fall of a group of criminals. So, not very original.

Just put 2.5 stars because of the end, if not, it would be just 2. Only for James Cagney fans. It doesnīt say you anything different of other classic gangsters films.
