    Al Pacino is Terrific!

    I love this film, best gangster film ever made, me and my 13 year-old son saw this movie together! and we both loved it! i'm think of showing it to my 10 year-old son, but it does contain extreme acts of violence (involving a M-16 machine gun, grenade launcher, pistols, uzis, knives, shotguns, and most of all a chainsaw) with tons of blood! There's not much Sex and Nudity, but there is one super quick scene of nudity (breasts, nipples, belly button, pubic hair, and vagina are visible in this scene) but goes by quick! and one implied sex scene, staring at women, and one extremely violent sexual scene involving a brother and sister (half of her breasts are scene, but you don't see any nipples, because they're half covered)! They're is a great amount of drugs and alcohol in this film (mostly drugs)! And to top it off a non-stop barrage of F-words throughout the film! Does have a good point though "Money, Fame, and Power will always some how lead to sadness and depression". Might want to watch this one with your kids

    Al Pacino is truly awesome!

    Really great movie! There is quite a bit of violence, and almost nonstop usage of the F-word but I think most teens can handle it.

    The movie with the famous line "say hello to my little friends

    Don't get me wrong, this is one of the greatest movies ever made but boy oh boy is this not a movie for kids. The movie has the most use of the word F and the violence is disturbing. If you get past the graphic violence and language, you could like it. I strongly recommend this for kids age 13 and up.

    The most pointlessly violent film ever

    At least the original had a message to it.

    I liked scarface but it is not for all kids my age

    Scarface was a very violent movie filled with drugs, booze and smoking. It would not be suitible for most kids my age. There is a little bit of nudity and sexuality but the violence just went over the top. There was blood and gore all over the place!!! Though i still liked the story. Pacino played very well in the film. Even though he was doing bad things, you still sort of admired his way. Great movie but too violent for kids my age.

    A Great ADULT movie

    I saw this film when I was 11 or 12. I thought and I think now. This film could probably pass off as an NC-17. I think the MPAA was easy on this film. Children should be hidden from this film till they're mature enough for sex, violence, drugs (a lot), and bad social influence in the same film. Anyways this is a great film for its time.

    Well...

    I am 10 my parents relly dont care but when scareface and outher movies of this sence i just say it is a movie i have no idea why people get all worked up by it. It is not just like a 5 year old is going to drug deal or have sex relly you dont learn this stuff by movies you learn it by you parents or by school i learned both ways i rember when i was like 7 i saw a bad movie they said the f word and i said " mommy what does that mean " and my mom said " it means it is time for bed " that is how it works in my book if parents read this i am not lieing if you a litle kid let the watch a R movie or a M game than take it away when they are ready talk to them about sex and then it wont be such a big deal.

    its cha boy

    alright scarface is not that great of a movie to start... its not even worth considering one of the 100 greatest movies of all time. its mediocre and its not that controvesial... the stupid conservative mindset of this cuntry is the reason why so much violence is condemmed because they are to afraid to face reality. this is the world we live in. you cant change that. this is merely a veiw of the state of the world at that time. nothing more

    classic

    everyone says how horribly violent this movie is, is there something wrong with me , kuz in our time, theres much worse (violent) movies than this!!! movie like sin city,kill bill.okay it is a bit adult but hnestly,if ur over 10, dont be affraid AT all. this movie is a pretty sweet action flick not intelligent enough. some moments can be pretty corny, but hey, if ur alone one day and bored , run out nd rent it , its a good movie, or even go out and buy it, its worth it.
