A tale of organized crime, redemption and a love story too.

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: Al Pacino stars in this 1993 released movie about a Puerto Rican high up in the drug trade just released from prison and is trying to start over
Review: Al Pacino stars in this 1993 released movie about a legendary Puerto Rican high up in the drug trade who has just been released from prison and is trying to start over with a new life.

Carlito Brigante (Al Pacino) was able to get an appeal...

Carlito's Way: It';s a CRIME More People Haven';t Seen This!

Date of Review:  Jan 22, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you like the gangster genre, Carlito'sWay will be one of your favorites!
Review: Carlito?s Way (1993)

Carlito?s Way is an unusually well scripted and crafted movie of the gangster genre. Directed by Brian DePalma and starring Al Pacino, as Carlito the movie is every bit as engrossing as their earlier collaboration...

"YOU THINK YOU'RE BIG TIME?!"

Date of Review:  Jun 11, 2002
The Bottom Line: A must see! What do you mean you haven't seen it? And you consider yourself a movie buff!?
Review: What's your favourite mobster movie scene? Is it the scene
in GOODFELLAS when TOMMY (Joe Pesci) shoots Spider for growing "cojones" and telling him to f*ck off? How about the "batting practise" scene in CASINO? (Brutal!) I think mine has to be...

A Gangster Classic Stuck in The Witness Protection Program

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is a must-see.
Review: Carlito's Way is an amazing little film, one that courts disaster with the same charm and inevitability as its title character. In its first scene, Carlito has just been gunned down while trying to board one of Chicago's famous "L" trains. This...

Carlito's Way is a Dead End

Date of Review:  Jan 6, 2001
The Bottom Line: Features a love affair so falsely contrived that the whole movie collapses under its own weight.
Review: This is an opinion of the film and why you should not buy it.

This is not a film review. Epinions provides a plot summary of this film at http://www.epinions.com/mvie_mu-1046335

Hold your nose. This movie is a stinker.

Okay I'm Reloaded!!!!

Date of Review:  Jan 30, 2004
The Bottom Line: very underrated gangster flick
Review: Before I get started on the movie, I must clear something up with my former hip-hop reviewing cohorts. If you care to remember the first four Jay-Z albums, there are several Pain In Da Azz intros, where he shouts "OKAY I'M RELOADED!!!" Many people...

The Street is watching?

Date of Review:  Oct 3, 2002
The Bottom Line: Must see for Pacino fans; Penn at his malleable best
Review: "Here come the pain" is the cry Carlito Brigante (Al Pacino) utters when he finds himself in a no way out situation without any bullets in his gun. Never short on bravado, Carlito lives by his wits and has lived longer than anyone has expected.

Sean Penn As You've Never Seen Him Before

Date of Review:  May 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you're a fan of Al Pacino's and/or Sean Penn's, you won't want to miss this film. The dialogue, acting, and Carlito's narrative are engaging and intriguing.
Review: Carlito's Way stars Al Pacino, Sean Penn, and Penelope Miller in a gritty, riveting film with great acting by all.

The film is worth watching just to see Sean Penn like you've never seen him before. Until I saw this film, I wasn't a big...

Great, Underrated Gangster Film

Date of Review:  Apr 5, 2000
Review: I just noticed that only 6 people have written an epinion on this film so I had to help get the word out. "Carlito's Way" teams up Al Pacino ("Godfather," "Heat," "The Insider," "Donnie Brasco," etc!) and director Brian De Palmo who made the epic...

"You remember me? Bennie Blanco from the Bronx."

Date of Review:  Sep 18, 2000
Review: There are so many things in "Carlito's Way" that we have seen before. First off, it's a crime film. Second, it has Al Pacino as a gangster. It's directed by Brian DePalma, who has one of the most recognizable styles in the world aside from John Woo,...
