As Spiwaksie points out, the IMDb ratings aren't perfect. Few people who are NOT into the genre will go up and give their dissenting vote. Did you?

Scarface had everything going for it, even if you don't like the genre. It had direction, screenplay, dialog, talent, action, suspense, photo direction--so many things about this film were done so well.

And you don't have to be into "cocaine, guns and politics" to be affected by the film. The point is that you're being immersed into a world that's alien to you--did that not happen to you, or did you just not like where you were taken?
