The junior school adaptation of the hit film has prompted mixed responses online.
Anyone who's ever watched Scarface would agree that it is definitely not a kids movie.
Between the violence, the profanity and the ridiculous amounts of white powder everywhere, the iconic 1983 film starring Al Pacino is barely suitable for faint-hearted adults, let alone their children.
But, one brave American junior school saw an opportunity to have a massive laugh, putting on their own adaptation of Scarface on stage and giving their mini Al Pacino a pyramid of popcorn instead of cocaine.

Despite the school's efforts to make their version a little more PG by making the kids say "fudge," Twitter isn't having any of it.

However, some people have managed to see the funny side.

Others remarked that the clip wasn't even from a school play and was intended as a joke all along:

The video isn't really from a school play. Issa joke.
@dinoplanet @KiannaBanana @StephLdavoski seriously; people see like four silhouetted heads and they think it's happening at a school

Whether or not you agree with the film, one thing for certain is that the kids definitely have talent.
What do you reckon? Is it funny or just plain bad taste?
