I just seen Scarface for the first time today, and quite frankly, I cant see how it can be considered a "mobster movie". It isnt in any way related to The Sicilian or American Mafia, it is more involved with Cubano`s and Columbians.
Omerta.

Big Louis Costillo, last of the old-style gang leaders is slain, and his former bodyguard Tony Camonte is taken into custody. Since Costillo's body has never been found, the police have to release him, though they strongly suspect Johnny Loro paid Tony to remove Big Louis. Tony begins taking over the rackets in town with violent enforcement, and he becomes a threat to Johnny and the other bosses unless they work for Tony. Meanwhile, Tony's sister wants to be more independent, but finds it difficult to escape from her brother's overprotective grasp. The dissatisfaction of the other bosses and the relentless pursuit of the police push Tony towards a major confrontation.
All right, you are what you are. It’s your nature. You stay close to me. You don’t do anything. You keep your mouth shut, and your eyes open. And you do what I tell you. Understand?

I never understood how they compared Scarface to the mafia movies. Maybe because Al Pacino's in it, but I don't see anything at all. Scarface is about a cokehead that brings himself to dirty success, while The Godfather is about a family and it's mafia business. I enjoyed both movies, except for the way Tony Montana is an idiot throughout the whole film. While Don Corleone is a smart man that knows how to run his business and take care of his family, friends, and associates.
You know, we always called each other good fellas. Like you said to, uh, somebody, :You're gonna like this guy. He's all right. He's a good fella. He's one of us.: You understand? We were good fellas.

I never really viewed scarface(strictly drug dealers) as mobsters. always considered them gangsters cause they'd seem to kill anyone anytime anywhere. but it is organized crime so it should always be in the same section as crime and drama genre's.
