The way Carlito immediately realises what is going on and starts to take control of the room & the situation is amazing. The 'trick shot' , asking the guy for a light to see who is carrying, positioning the reflective glasses guy where he needs him to see behind, etc, so masterful.

The attention to subtle detail in this scene is what makes this so good. How the guys in the room are telegraphing something is amiss when they first walk in -- how they are playing pool, but not really playing -- how they stop him from going into the bathroom. The tension just keeps building and building and you are in his mind with him and you feel like the walls are really closing in on you. He's not packing so he has to see who is ... everything in this scene happens for a reason -- it is a masterclass in acting and directing. Pacino knows that he's walked into a setup and his street smarts are what save him.

this scene was just electric when I saw it in the theater In hindsight, the genius of this film was that it was as if the director saw that Al Pacino was starting to chronically overact and figured out a way to make lemonade out of the lemon He casts Al as a massively passionate & violent man striving the entire film to keep himself under control And in this, the best scene in the film, Al’s character is facing certain death and is forced to bluff his way out. The more Al overacts, the better the scene gets. And the final twist of the scene makes it perfect, makes it like a miniature BARON MUNCHAUSEN; the threat was gone, the danger all in his head, all that sound & fury signifying nothing. 🙌

This scene is so perfect, so many nuances. One of the all time great movies which is severely underrated. Not enough budget to pay off the press and academy i guess

Everything about this scene is a masterpiece

I was a child in Suburban NYC in the 70s. What's so beautifully authentic in the car portion of this scene is the ambient Salsa. That was The Bronx in predominantly Puerto Rican areas back then. There would just be Salsa in the air. You usually had no idea from where. It was just there. And coming from Suburbia, it was the perfect soundtrack to what was an exotic land to me. It was likely the first place I ever heard Salsa and I've been a fan ever since.

"Here come the pain!" love that line!

The way the barber got excited and nervous at the same time was wonderful he was even going to tell his client who carlito was LOVE IT

This was actually the first Pacino I have seen on the big screen. Love it to this day! To me it hits all the notes much more precisely than the o-so-acclaimed-cult-movie Scarface.

Those latina’s in the back are classic baddies ❤

Sean Penn, Pacino, Penelope ann Miller all put on some the best performances of their careers. Loved this movie.

One thing about that scene that always gets me is how family and friends can get u caught up. Carlito just got out of doing a bid and his own cousin brought him to a drug deal that eventually went wrong.

One of the best movies! Fantastic. So many classic lines and scenes . Oh Carlito I heard of you ! You use to run smack with Rolando . Turn it up I love that song !

I'm old enough to remember that Carlito's line, "You think you're big time?" was sampled in a dance club song, back in the day.

I love how all throughout the film, whenever he's among criminal elements, Carlito methodically scans his surroundings and the people within them while giving off a collected composure. For anyone he's familiar with, Carlito weighs his relationship with them, while at the same time cautiously piecing together any possible motivation they might have to go against him, no matter how close they might be. Anyone he doesn't know, he automatically categorizes as probable threats, and devises a plan to deal with them if need be. Pacino is phukkin' amazing.

Here in Latin America although most people are sweet and kind there is always that possibility of violence and danger, this is due to the high crime rates that exist in our countries, that is why since you leave home you are always evaluating the place and the environment in which one finds oneself to identify latent and non-latent threats, in the city where I live which is Bogotá - Colombia the situation has worsened a lot since the massive exile of Venezuelans towards Colombia began, this happens because the President of Venezuela Nicolás Maduro took many of the prisoners out of Venezuela prisons and left them on the border with Colombia so that they could come to our country to do their thing.

Amazing scene. So tense! Brilliant, underrated film ❤

Pacino is such a badass when he plays any type of gangster. The look on his face, the way he holds a gun, the yelling. Brilliant as always.

That’s how you knew Carlito was a legend, because he knew something wasn’t right from the beginning.

Experience tells him the minute he walks in there he knows somethings up, Pacino plays that whole scene brilliantly. Pretending to be distracted but he's really keeping an eye on everyone in there. He clocks the boy in the toilet straightaway and the audience knows this won't end well.

Highly doubt it especially in the time's that were in now like if they made Scarface and Carlitos Way today he wouldn't have been cast in those roles because he's Italian they would have an actual Cuban actor for Scarface and a Puerto Rican actor for Carlitos Way cause it's all about representation especially for roles where the character is Hispanic

This is such a great scene.

The music gets loud, and Al Pacino immediately gets the clue as to what is about to happen, and then visually confirms every step of the way: "Yep, it's headed where I think it's headed." A lot of acting just with the eyes and movement. Deep level acting and ability to internalize thought process of the character. Act it out like it's for real. An iconic actor.

This scene echoes the drug deal gone wrong at the beginning of Scarface. It is a formula, format DePalma has crafted before; exciting scene at the beginning of a film to grab peoples attention, set the tone, keep people focused while the pace of the film slows and things quiet down during the middle of the film.

Unlike Scarface, Carlito‘s Way didn’t have to work based on a remake, but don’t get me wrong, Scarface is still a little better

Carlito saw this hole play from the beginning, but the bathroom scene confirms his suspicions. Asks to use the bathroom and the door slowly closes. He has no weapon so he's scans the room and waits for the right time to make a move. Also love when he's in the bathroom and his gun is empty so he plays it off like he just reloaded. This movie has scenes that are just perfect, Brian De Palma knocked it out of the park. This movie is defiantly in my top 50

Charlie knew how to read a room. He could feel that the air was off and knew it was gonna go bad.

My favorite Al Pacino movie, so underrated ...

Carlito saw the set up. But was unarmed. When he got the light from the Boriqua he saw the gun. That was a master move with the trick shot.🏆

Absolutely gripping. All-time classic scene. "You think you're big time!?" "Here comes the pain!!!"

For all his street smarts, experience, sixth sense, cool calculation & legendary repute Carlito grossly underestimated the sheer brazen ferociousness & crazy cowboy ways of the new breed of urban gangsters who had risen & become more violent over the preceding five years. Times had changed, drastically & dramatically. Carlito had to learn the hard way, making it out alive from that deadly setup via his wits, quick thinking & awesome badassery. Al Pacino owned this scene & pulled it off to perfection.

Al Pacino always makes his characters memorable, Michael Corleone, Tony Montana, Carlito Brigante, etc.

The white ball in the face kills me every time. 🤣😂🤣😂

Carlito Brigante, Antonio Montana, Michael Corleone. Al Pacino plays the most epic movie gangsters better than anyone.
