TV Guide Magazine
A beautiful, at times poetic exercise in excess from Brian De Palma.

Empire
Perfomances are excellent, and despite its moralistic conclusion, the film has since become de rigueur viewing for crack barons, who know a good shoot-em-up when they see one.

Say hello to my little friend! - Tony Montana Gracias Brian de Palma por esta obra
90
The New York Times
Scarface is the most stylish and provocative - and maybe the most vicious - serious film about the American underworld since Francis Ford Coppola's "Godfather."
80
Variety
Scarface is a grandiose modern morality play, excessive, broad and operatic at times.
80
Time
It is a serious, often hilarious peek under the rock where nightmares strut in $800 suits and Armageddon lies around the next twist of treason.
25
Boston Globe
It plays like a crude "Godfather" parody, the sort that might amuse as a 10-minute sketch on "Saturday Night Live," but curdles and collapses as a 143-minute film. [09 Dec 1983]

Chicago Reader
Brian De Palma dedicates this 1983 feature to Howard Hawks and Ben Hecht, authors of the 1932 original, though I doubt they would find much honor in his gory inflation of their crisp, 90-minute comic nightmare into a klumbering, self-important, arrhythmic downer of nearly three hours.

Esse filme é um clássico do cinema, é uma versão nova do filme de mesmo nome lançado em 1932, mas pela ambientação dos anos 80 agrega muito ao filme, a atuação de al pacino é um absurdo, não perca a chance de assistir!

The Dramatic aspects are lacking but overall Scarface is meant to entertain like any viable film. The direction is heavy handed at times, jumping between a firework Rambo spectacle to a much more laid back tone; that of which is comparable to Francis Ford Coppola.

Film dobrze ukazuje życie florydzckiego gangstera jednak nie uważam fabuły za interesującą lub w jakikolwiek sposób specjalną. To prosty film klasyk nie dobry nie zły.

Nothing more that mountains of cocaine, and never-ending violence. Scarface has absolutely no storyline. It is true that hollywood only makes movies with action, that have absolutely no meaning these days.
