Overrated and ignored

Is the 1983 movie "scarface" overrated?
This question is too difficult to answer. Because there are many people who overestimate it.
When most people hold the same opinion, is this opinion right?

Haha...
This is not a math question, so there is no standard answer, so this question has no solution at all.

Since so many people overestimate, or we can change a word, so many people like this film. Then they must have a reason enough to convince themselves.
Maybe many people like the role of Tony?
I guess so.

Who doesn't like those publicity roles?
Bruce Lee? godfather? Chen Haonan? Brother Ma? Rambo?
Such a role will often make a male hero quickly transform into a popular lover.
Maybe this world belongs to the weak who are waiting to be conquered. They wriggle in every corner of the world, dreaming of conquering the world. But I can never take the first step. And when the real strong swallows them, they will rejoice for the sacrifice of their companions.
Don't doubt, this world belongs to those rat generations waiting for others to sacrifice in a dark corner!
Among all their pastimes, their favorite is to appreciate sacrifices.
But please relax, they are not malicious, they are just stupid, so stupid that they will recover after eating human blood buns. If you want, you can take up a weapon and kill them at any time. Not only will they not blame you, but they will also thank you because they have some blood buns to eat. He didn't care about whose blood it was and whose knife it was.

In Pacino, or under the aura of Tony Montana, the one who was overlooked was the man behind the manuscript-Oliver Stone!
He is the screenwriter of this play.
This guy must be a preacher. I mean, he will swear.
Often the guys who say "this child will die" will betray their relatives.
And the guys who can curse people can win flowers and applause while telling the truth.

If you want to know how Stone swears? Check out these films. The films
"Field Platoon", "Wall Street" and "Born Murderer"
all deeply reflect on certain social issues. Moreover, these films are pretty good-looking.
Stone is a master at digging problems! He is also an artist with a conscience!

In "Scarfaced Man," Stone seemed to say something, and he didn't seem to say it.
Pacino said at the table: Why? Eating, drinking, fucking, oral sex, taking drugs... why?
why?
This question is very interesting. It was originally a remake. But this remake only continued to strengthen the strength of Tony's character, but gave up the pain of digging into the character's heart.
As for the 1932 "Scarface", there is a plot of incest with his sister. Has Stone ever taken it? Or did the director give up?
An unknown little pawn became a big boss, and finally fell. What kind of mental journey did you go through? In fact, this is much more interesting than "Boom, bang~dak~boom...". Look at the "Godfather" series, "Angry Bull"... just like this movie. That is definitely a work that can be remembered in history.
But it seemed that Stone had taken too much medicine and ignored this, and Pacino was the only one to pick the scene in the end.
Is this film an anti-drug teaching material after all? The drug lords will eventually be killed. And drug screenwriters don’t want to write a good book. Do you think Stone has become more powerful after quitting?
What a vivid textbook?

Is it overrated or ignored?
This scene is actually very interesting!

    After Tony gained power, his character began to become suspicious, and he was full of doubts about the people around him, even his family members and good brothers. Suspicion led him to gradually embark on a road of no return

    After escaping from socialism, he seemed to get rid of the centralization of individual control that he always despised, and ran to his own freedom road, but unknowingly spread the control toxins from his victimized body to everyone around him. He didn't know how to love others, he didn't know how to respect others, and he didn't even know how to love himself, so that he ruined everyone, his lover, his brothers, his family, including himself.
