The Godfather vs. Scarface
 

Two classic gangster films, probably the best ever...

Which is better? The godfather with the classic Mafia theme, or Scarface with the gritty life of a big time dealer...

The Godfather probably

C'mon man.......u must be kiddin.....Fuckin Scarface takes this shit with no competition....

why is this in "hip hop talk"
TINK before you make threads.
and Godfather is better.

i LIKE GODFATHER BETTER

Nah it's all about Scarface.

They are two different types of movies. The Godfather Trilogy focuses more on the dramatic aspect of the roots of Italian mob, up to the point of somewhat modern mafia. It also consists of 3 parts, and is within the top 5 movies ever made as judged by the American Film Institute.

Scarface on the other hand, is a single installment. It focuses on the more modern and flashy concept of Spanish mob within the modern Miami. Unlike The Godfather, when Scarface came out.. it was a total failure in the terms of ticket sales. It only started to become a classic within the undergound, and now is probably the most revered gangster movie.

So, to compare the two is impossible. Its all a personal preference. Me? I would pick Scarface. But thats only what i think.

Godfather was a better story

Scarface. werd

Scarface, no question. Because it's closer to our time and more relateable haven the drugs reigns and such.

Yes, Scarface is "truer" and what not, but the godfather is classic, and is the best movie i have ever seen... And they are both mob movies that focus on trust and friendship and betrayal and backstabbing, along with other themes such as gangs and corruption.... But godfather is just better....Come on, Marlon Brando, young Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro...Just Classic

Also i think "A Bronx Tale" is a great movie, dealing with racism and mafia life back in the 50's... Sonny and C, a great flick..

Truuuuuuuuue, I forgot about a bronx tale until you just mentiond it.

i say godfather....

Are you talking about the 1st godfather or one of the others in the series?
