Everything about the 1983 remake of "Scarface" screams 1980s excess. The costumes,expensive cars, garish sets, and Oliver Stone's violent, profanity laden script is an obvious metaphor for the conspicuous consumption of the Reagan era.
Tony Montana (Al Pacino) escapes from Cuba as part of the Mariel Boatlift. Tony quickly finds work in Florida's massive illegal drug business and eventually builds his own criminal empire.
Scarface is Al Pacino's film all the way. Tony Montana is vicious and crude but always watchable.
