Slow but still has intense moments. It’s dark tone and deliberate pace will lose some people but it is still a well made film about greed
Great acting and casting is brilliant. Story is as old as time itself. Really made me long for the grittiness of pre-2000 NYC.
Gangster film that takes the perspective of the businesses affected.
Oscar Isaac has a great performance in this movie
A slow, but engaging (and realistic) crime drama with amazing performances by Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain.
A film about a Latin Man whose worked himself from the ground up facing unseeable obstacles. A good performance from Issac and a good story.
You’ve got great actors and good production value but the script is pretty bland. Coulda been great, just good.
A great movie with an intriguing story, however it is a bit poorly paced at times
Well-acted and well-crafted, but I feel like I don't even remember what happened, just that I liked it.
What if De Palma's Scarface was actually a well-crafted movie and replaced Tony Montana with a compelling, likable hero?
