Every man has an ambition; women too in that matter.
But for this newly arrived immigrant who came from a land where entrepreneurship doesn't exist, he seized the opportunity to establish himself in the cocaine trafficking network.
His cunning and ambition made him achieve all what a Miami dreamer could ever do in a thousand lifetimes.
Despite the story being over-reactive.. it was nicely put together, and Pacino's acting was terrific (it's not easy faking a lisp all the way!)
The features of the movie; the big mansion, Bolivian highlands, drug lord's estates, fancy clothes and cars (back in the 70's that is) was remarkable and very well spent on making this movie.
However in the very end where Tony gets shot, it was quite ridiculous how he managed to keep on going after receiving his first couple shots... makes the Terminator look like snow white!
