    I've seen the first but didn't care for it so I've got no desire to see the second. Its just not my type of movie.
    Off the top of my head I've also seen him in Scarface, Heat, and Scent of a woman. I never said he was a bad actor, just that he does nothing for me. Sorry. I would just prefer to watch someone else instead.

    I was always of the belief that you had to try REALLY hard to not like The Godfather films ... but you both make it look so easy !

    No! You can't, you promised me! Besides you owe me for watching and listening to everything you recommended

    I'm a hopeless weirdo -- liked The Godfather films, but not Scarface. Did appreciate some moments and elements of it, but for whatever reason cannot give it thumbs up.

    I watched East of Eden, House of 1000 Corpses, Black Swan, Halloween and got the Walking Dead comics! Isn't that enough?

    Actually, I don't like Scarface nearly as much as I used to. I loved it as an adolescent , back when I thought dropping the F-bomb every other sentence was awesome.

    It's entertaining, but the character of Montana is too cartoonish for the film to be taken seriously.
