Ratings and reviews

Defecation, urination, expectoration - who'd have thought that Al Capone had so many bodily functions. He never went to the bathroom in any of the other movies, yet this film sets out to highlight that Big Al did, in fact, use the W.C. even when one wasn't available. Yes, if you thought there was much glamour to be had in this pic, any glorification of old Scarface, then boy, are you way off. I don't know what to add except that it would have been nice if the financiers tore up the script, and wrote a completely new one, with a new director, this time focusing on the part of Al Capone's life that wasn't given to turning people like me off their movie time snacks.

I wouldn't recommend this movie. However, towards the end a found a little appreciation for it. Leave this one on the maybe later category when its three dollars to hire and there is nothing better to do.

Absolute worst Tom Hardy movie ever. Although his acting was still brilliant, the story and scenes were atrocious. Definitely give this one a miss.
