The film also features Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Steven Bauer, and Michelle Pfeiffer. The initial critical response to Scarface was mixed, with criticism over excessive violence, frequent strong language and graphic hard drug usage. Some Cuban expatriates in Miami objected to the film's portrayal of Cubans as criminals and drug traffickers. Contemporary reviews have been more positive, and screenwriters and directors such as Martin Scorsese have praised the movie. It is now considered a classic within the gangster film genre and has resulted in many cultural references such as in comic books and video games.
