Hey, sometimes I think movies are great if they meet just ONE simple criterion: They entertain me every time I watch it! :p
[/b][/quote]Meh, me, Capo, Thug, Omar, etc. all rate movies mainly on an artistic slant, although I HEAVILY disagree with Capo on this. :p
Scarface's entertainment value for me is ****, but I rate it as a ***. A movie has to do more then keep me entertained for a few hours.
