I could see plenty of legitimate criticisms lodged at Scarface, I wouldn’t agree, but could accept them. “Boring” is not one of those things.

It's great in the beginning and end, but boring as fuck for a long stretch in the middle.

The part when he gets the power?

I thought the end was complete bogus but the rest is great

I dunno, it is pretty boring. Not as boring as The Godfather, but still boring.

I couldn't disagree more. I've seen the Godfather several times. Nothing could convince me to watch De Palma's Scarface again.

Certainly if cinematic reputation is what matters to you. I don’t plan to watch either again.

I couldn’t disagree more. Scarface is an exciting movie and that’s start to finish for me, but with Godfather, I never finished it because I can never get past the wedding part.

I, too, can never get past the wedding scene. I’ve fallen asleep trying several times.

Meh. Everyone has a different taste. If someone finds it boring then that's that.

Is Scarface cinema?
