The memory of a little girl's first communion day gone down the sh*tter.
Ultra-violent storytelling has never been my thing, but the issues with Scarface go beyond that.

Margaret Qualley is fantastic as the wise-cracking private eye Honey, with Aubrey Plaza and Chris Evans adding their own dry humor to the mix.
