Leo delivers another thrilling and oscar-worthy role in a three hour (yes, three hour) march through a life of debauchery and criminal activity that has leagues of people falling in line. The movie requires a bit of thicker skin as there is plenty of skin shown and more than a few F-bombs thrown about - if you aren't swayed by these things then you're not going to be put-off by the "vulgar" content alone. There's an undeniable cool to everything here. We've all seen actors doing cocaine off a stripper's body, but those moments are rarely coupled with the threat of a good time at a summer party, only the party takes place everywhere the camera points. I loved this movie, enough that I'd highly recommend it. Its greatest weakness really is run-time. 3 hours was fine for a first-run, but that's Lord of the Rings extended edition territory and there's not nearly as much action here so the time might cause you to wonder "what time is it?" once or twice. See it once at least but, if you're like me, don't worry about seeing it again. It lasts well-enough on a first run that you may never bother with it again. Martin Scorsese gets another one right.

Fantastic movie. I didn't know that the awesome duo of Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio could pull off a comedy, but apparently they can; and it's hilarious.

It's one of the reasons why Scorsese is such a legend. To be at his age and still create movies, not to mention working in a genre almost entirely new to him, is just amazing.

Leo gives, in my opinion, the best performance of his already storied career. I'm definitely remembering this one for a long time.

Jonah Hill is also funny as hell. And so is the rest of the supporting cast. The plot and script are both riveting.

Perhaps my only problem with the film is the ending. It felt kinda sudden. One second Leo is talking to an audience, and the next it's the credits.

But other than that, it's a Must See. Not even it's long duration (3 hours), was a problem to me. The film wasn't boring in any way. It's a terrific depiction of Jordan Belfort, his rise and fall, and the outrageous lifestyle that he and his friends lived in the 1990s.

Its typical Scorsese magic, as despite the long 3 hour running time the director manages to build the character of Jordan Belfort in-depth with careful meticulousness, from his normal man aspiring to complete the everyman's dream of hitting it big on Wall Street to the dissipation of his family and friends as he plummets down to earth with the weight of his lies and moral corruption pushing down on him hard. Its a grandiose movie that absorbs its audience with pleasure and excess and also manages to make them care about the man's story. Expand

"The Wolf of Wall Street" is infectiously entertaining. It is probably the funniest movie I have seen all year with witty dialogue, over the top characters, and filled with energy that bleeds off the screen. Between all the fun however,"The Wolf of Wall Street" is infectiously entertaining. It is probably the funniest movie I have seen all year with witty dialogue, over the top characters, and filled with energy that bleeds off the screen. Between all the fun however, there is also a story about addiction and how it can cause a downward spiral in your life whether it be drugs, money, or power.

Acclaimed director Martin Scorsese does a wonderful job keeping this movie at a high at all times. Never once does this movie lose it’s energy or sense of humor much like the drug induced characters. There are a lot of quick cuts and edits to keep the movie feeling as If you are on drugs as well as playing high energy music in some of the more serious situations.

The cast brings their “A” game. The stand out is obviously Leonardo DiCaprio, who pretty much owns and excels any scene he is in. This film really showcases his diverse range.

Overall “The Wolf of Wall Street” is a full on adrenaline ride that never loses momentum. It’s directed with a lot of flair and energy and has an incredibly well written script that gives it depth and a ton of laughs. The cast is fantastic and DiCaprio gives his best and most fun filled performance to date. I really enjoyed this movie and think it’s the funniest movie of the year 4.5/5

Don't people realize there is a difference between portrayingThe Wolf of Wall Street is undoubtedly one of the best pictures of the year. I am confused as to why people think the film glorifies and condones Jordan Belfort's actions. Don't people realize there is a difference between portraying something and condoning something? I guess we need sparknotes for movies now. The Wolf of Wall Street is clearly a satire, meant to expose the very culture we live in. That culture is one that yearns to be rich and live excessively. Throughout the film you see how DiCaprio's character is hooked on the excessive lifestyle and can't leave it behind, even when it is necessary for him to avoid prison. Also, we laugh at the film because we know it is ridiculous and absurd behavior and boy did I laugh.

The Wolf of Wall Street, was in my opinion, the funniest movie of the year. DiCaprio, Hill, and the rest of the supporting cast, including Rob Reiner, were fantastic and hilarious. Terrence Winter did a great job of adapting Jordan Belfort's memoir into a cautionary tale about greed and excess. Lastly, Martin Scorsese delivers his best directorial performance in years. I'm not sure yet, if I like The Wolf of Wall Street more than Gangs of New York or The Departed, but it's easily Scorsese's best directorial effort since Goodfellas. You can feel the energy of the film, which is exhilarating and that no doubt is due to Scorsese.

My only complaint about the movie is that the final hour was not as good as the first two. The first two hours were the best I've spent at a movie in years and that is not an exaggeration. The final hour is good, but not excellent like the first two. The problem resides with the screenplay and story, which I feel jumps a little too much towards the end, causing the film to be a little hard to follow at times. The final shot of the film, however, is brilliant and clearly indicates the point of the film, that Jordan Belfort's life is something we want and have to allowed to happen. Maybe after repeated viewings I will see the final hour differently, but it certainly did not detract from my enjoyment o the film.
So my advice, to those of you that have not seen the movie, is to ignore those that say the film is a glorification of immoral behavior because their just simply wrong. The film is CLEARLY a satire, so sit back, enjoy the film, and most importantly, laugh, your supposed to because it indicates you know it's absurd behavior.

Three hours of sex, drugs, and swearing. Every five or ten minutes, there will be a sex scene, anything from DiCaprio his girlfriend to an orgy on an airplane.

Every five or ten minutes, there will be a sex scene, anything from DiCaprio his girlfriend to an orgy on an airplane. Everyone is constantly taking pills, snorting cocaine, and swearing is about 50% of the entire script. It's an odd film taking you completely by surprise, and it's a touchy film, but I honestly think nothing was out of place.

If you don't like any of the things listed above, you won't like this film. But, assuming you can watch it, it's a great film. It has everything you need. Humour, drama, acting, music, etc.

The performances are great. DiCaprio, especially, nails his role as a Wall Street wannabe, sleezy and talented. Falls under drugs, sex, and pushes his way to fortune through illegal activities. Everyone else is fantastic no one ever sticks out as 'bad'.

The music is fantastic, never out-of-place and always complimenting the scene going on. Humour? I couldn't stop laughing at times. The drugged behavior or the witty (offensive, some might call it) office abuse makes this comedy one of, if not the best comedies of the year.

Overall, it's an amazing movie. It does drag just a little too long; 2.5 hours would've been enough, but honestly, 3 hours isn't bad in a crazy movie like this. Go see it if you have the chance!

One just has toMartin Scorsese' adaptation of the book 'The Wolf of Wall Street' is full of profanity, sex, nudity and unlikeable characters in sleazy situations. However, despite this the film is constantly engaging and often very funny. One just has to get past the initial misgivings that the questionable content throws out there and accept it for the movie it is. An intelligent screenplay allows Scorsese to put his indelible stamp on the material. Some scenes are even reminiscent of 'Goodfellas' and, although the film clocks in at an audacious 180 minutes, the combination of Scorsese's inventive directorial style and Thelma Schoonmaker's slick editing ensure that the film remains compelling to the end.
Key to the success of the film is a fantastic showcase of a performance from Leonardo Di Caprio who, at times, appears to be thoroughly enjoying himself and relishing the comedic antics required of him. His Oscar nomination is thoroughly deserved. Jonah Hill is ok but he is not in the same league. His nomination seems overly generous.
Although not a film for everyone, 'The Wolf of Wall Street' rewards an open mind. It is a film that would stand up well to repeat viewings after the plethora of profanity and sexual situations have been assimilated and accepted within their perfectly appropriate context. Stockbrokers, who may wither under the spotlight, may be amongst those wishing to pass.

ThisThis new Martin Scorsese's movie made me go speechless, I was absolutely stunned. This was not some random person's life story, it was based on the former stockbroker Jordan Belfort which mostly speaks about the frauds he committed. This movie was presented in a dark comedy like it's supposed to be, mainly because of three stuffs it deals, (1) drugs, (2) sex and (3) money.

Drugs: It was not the first time a Hollywood movie to represent this issue in raw act, but depends on whose movie it was. When filmmakers choose subjects like this they should ready to roll on any challenge that comes ahead so I believe Martin Scorsese did an exceptional job here to depict the truth as it should be.

Sex: It was very strong and kind of shocked to see in a Martin Scorsese movie. Like I said in earlier paragraph no matter what it is the director excelled in this department as well to extract the possible reality.

Money: This is a common theme in world cinema so no surprise the director mastered in this field as well without letting anything behind. But previous two themes from above two paragraphs braced this theme very comfortable blend and reached the crest of the tensed end part of the story.

Does it require to brief about Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill's contribution. Well, both of them were outstanding in their respective roles. And great supports from second stream actors and cameo appearances from various top profiles. The successful collaboration between Scorsese and DiCaprio continues to the next level. Hope this pair gives an another remarkable product in near future. Until then goodbye from me, I mean meet you in my next review and thank you for reading this. Cheers.

This movie is rather divisive due to it's subject matter. It is a very vulgar movie filled with sex,drugs and deplorable behavior. I did not have a problem with this as Scorsese doesn't glorify what you see on screen. You see the benefits and negatives of this type of lifestyle. This film's 3-hour runtime is sure to scare away many viewers,but rest assured:The movie flies like a breeze. The 3 hours fly by due to how much fun the movie is. Is it perfect?

Leonardo Di Caprio, a favorite of mine, took everything he has learned from his blonde innocent locks in Titanic to his Lucretius and neck- wringing performance in Django Unchained. But here, every murmur, every breath is pure brilliance. It is definitely Martin and Leo's best work together yet. Jonah Hill also grants me with joy, but does not surprise me. Because I know, that he is one of the best actors to ever come from his stereotypical down-faults. He makes this character so real, so fresh, so high. The only thing that keeps this film from a perfect 10 score, is it's potential, but stays on a pretty opaque path throughout. The character growth of Jordan and his associates are grand, in the beginning, but never has a real second growth after they reach their American Psycho aficionado stage. I digress, 9/10. Excellent.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Overview

The Wolf of Wall Street, undoubtedly is one of Leo’s best performances, and makes it seem that Oscar may finally be in his grasp.

Review (with Spoilers)

When Martin Scorsese puts his name on a film, you know that quality is to be expected. Then, with his most recent muse Leonardo DiCaprio being in the lead role, it is almost impossible to imagine them working together leading to something horrible. After all, they are like a more refined, and dependable, version of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp.

Characters & Story

As for the film, the story focuses on one Jordan Belfort (played by Leonardo DiCaprio) who is this highly charismatic man whose ability to inspire is comparable to that of the great villains of history or literature. However, like many villains, things didn’t start off with him going down the wrong path. When we first meet Jordan, he may not be a saint, but his conscious is clean. He has a wife Teresa (played by Cristin Milioti), and simply wants to live a life where monetary worries are something which are foreign and something simply seen on the news. So, with his first entry level job he meets a man named Mark Hanna (played by Matthew McConaughey) who not only mentors him, but is the figure which begins to change Jordan from the man Teresa fell in love with, to a character who you can’t take your eyes off of.

Unfortunately for Jordan though, after finally passing his series 7 exam, to be an official stockbroker, Black Monday happens. With this event, Jordan is out of a job and Mark is out of his life. However, with Mark introducing him to the taste of the life he always wanted, and Jordan having that old school American, pull yourself up by the bootstraps, mentality, he decides to not let this setback kill his vision of the new American dream: getting rich. So, he first starts out doing penny stocks and then begins building an empire with his workers being the downtrodden of the world, making him rise to a level where he almost seems like Hitler without an army or anti-Semitic views. Alongside him is a man who helps see his dreams come true, and push them to ruin: Donnie Azoff (played by Jonah Hill). Making for an overall adventure in which we see the usual dramatic rise and disastrous fall of a figure who may have gotten beaten, but seemingly gets the last laugh and lives to fight another day.

Praise

First and foremost, there is an obligatory need to praise Leonardo DiCaprio for he will keep you entertained for the full three hours of the film. Through breaking the 4th wall, and all different types of debauchery which usually is only seen on HBO or Showtime shows, we are given a 3D character. One who has all the charm needed to trick people out of money, but at the same time seems like the life he lives and the person he is at heart are continually conflicting with each other. I say that since, despite the yacht, massive ego, and the ability to make a million in a day, there is still this sort of vulnerability, if only slightly. Take note of whenever he is looking at a woman as more than a vagina to stick his dick in, he becomes insecure in almost an inexperienced teen way, making it seem like testosterone is able to create a façade for when it is time to show off, but during intimate moments, the mask comes off and all that is left is a man with money and ambitions, but someone who also desires someone stable to share all of his profit with too.

But it isn’t just DiCaprio who gives you an excellent performance. Hill, based off his filmography, seems almost destined to play Azoff, and though he may not go head to head with DiCaprio in terms of prominence, it is hard to deny that as a supporting member, he doesn’t do a hell of a job. Also, I quite admired the use of soul/ blues music throughout the film signaling the shift of Belfort’s rise, and perhaps the best thing about the film is that while it isn’t rolling on the floor funny, it does keep you smiling and entertained all throughout.

Criticism

Leading to perhaps the sole criticism I have for this movie: The Ending. Our journey with Belfort creates the type of movie you can foresee watching more than once, just because of all the madness that goes on; however, the ending just feels so anti-climactic after everything that is done. You watch the man throw midgets, money launder, have sex with tons of woman, take as much drugs as possible without having an overdose, and though I realize Belfort, the actual Jordan Belfort, is alive so a definitive ending isn’t possible, I just felt like after skyrocketing and maintaining that altitude, the ending feels like a plane nose-diving and just barely making it onto the runway safe.

Overall: Must See

I personally am not a huge Leonardo DiCaprio fan, but it is undeniable that his work with Martin Scorsese took him from Jack in Titanic to a mega star. Whatever it is, Scorsese brings out the best out of DiCaprio the same way he did with Robert De Niro for decades. And with that said, t

As, it just keeps getting better and better as the scenes goes on topping the next previous one connecting into one intriguing story of Jordan Belfort Rise and Fall on Wall Street!!!

If Leonardo DiCaprio doesn't win a Oscar for Best Actor, then it's a FRAUD!!! Because, DiCaprio delivered some of the BEST motivational speeches EVER HEARD throughout a movie, that were just PRICELESS to hear, ranking up there with a Tony Robbins motivation speech or Vince Lombardi in "Second Effort" circa 1968 which is the HOLY GRAIL for salespeople to watch!!!

I mean, YOU FEEL EVERY BOOMING FOUL MOUTH WORD COMING OUT of DiCaprio's MOUTH!!! Telling you, "GO OUT THERE & MAKE YOURSELF SOME Mother Fudging Money"!!! And, It is empowering to HEAR as watching must see TV!!! And, the graphic language used in this film is VERY HEAVY with 414 F-Bombs dropped, clearly topping another Highly Acclaimed mature theme film called "Glengarry Glen Ross" circa 1992 with 138 used!!! As, The Wolf of Wall Street ranks number 5 on the all-time list of films that use the "F Word" !!!

So, IF YOU ARE A MATURE ADULT then this will be the movie for you to watch!!! As, there are far and in between movies nowadays contenting Adult themes with everything being gear towards young adolescent, like those neuter comic book movies (X-Men series, Wolverine, Spiderman) or those teenie horror movies (Mortal Instruments, Warm Bodies,Vampire Academy, etc.)!!!

Three hours of extremely well developed characters with Leo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill leading the way. Although most should thoroughly enjoy it, some may have a weak stomach when it comes to the near overdose the audience experiences watching and hearing the explicit language, constant use of narcotics and naked women. My reasoning for giving a 9 instead of a 10 is the length, don't get me wrong, none of it is dry but instead of walking out of the theater exclaiming how fantastic the show was, those around me made comments like they were getting off a flight. If you can't sit through three hours at the big screen, wait for the DVD/BluRay and get comfy at home. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Wolf of Wall Street is very long, very loud, full of brazen immoral behavior, repellent characters, completely over-the-top, and a brilliant black comedy.

Reading through the reviews by professional critics and users it appears that except for my conclusion in that lead-in sentence, everyone agrees about what is on the screen whether they give it high ratings, mixed ratings or low ratings. It is not a case of one person seeing one thing and another seeing something different.

The immoral (not amoral) life of Jordan Belfort requires this treatment the movie is what he was: loud, brazenly immoral, repellent, completely over-the-top and a brilliant con man. A more "restrained" treatment could not have done it justice.

Are you offended by what you see in this movie? Good! It is offensive, but that is the point. You need to see how offensive Belfort and his whole operation was/is. This bad, bad behavior is being held up for ridicule. Laughing at it is the only way viewing it could be tolerable. He does not deserve to be treated as a serious man.

But there is a serious sub-text to this movie. It is an indictment of Wall Street as a whole. The film makes this clear, as Belfort spends one day in a "legitimate" Wall Street firm on 1987's Black Monday, and is exposed to the immoral operation of the "best" firms: the fact that all brokers are essentially conmen fleecing their clients. His genius is to take what he sees and break it free from its shackles of faux respectability, starting with his initial staffing hiring buddies who are small time drug dealers. He is not debasing Wall Street, he is embodying it in its purest form.

And the end of movie makes a very cogent point: how modern society treats the parasites of Wall Street. We see the FBI agent who could have been a broker, and rich, if he had chosen to be a Wall Street conman riding on the subway home. We see Belfort's punishment: 22 months in a country-club prison, and a fine of only part of his vast ill-gotten wealth, where a poor man guilty of 1% of his crimes would have spent 20 years of hard time. And we see the audience of Belfort's "sales" seminars looking hungrily at him, desperately wanting to be able to do what he did.

Having seen the miscreants on Wall Street that crashed the economy at the cost of trillions of dollars to the nation in 1987, walk scott-free, not a single indictment much less a conviction, and not even miss one of their bonuses, this is a very timely movie.

DiCaprio is a necessity in the lead role. It does not draw on his full capabilities, and he carries the role easily, but only a top-flight charismatic actor could portray Belfort and bring the audience along with his utterly self-centered, corrupt, destructive ride.

This movie forms a trilogy with two of Scorsese's other films: Goodfellas (one of the best films ever made) and Casino. They all chronicle the rise and fall of the hustler.

The only reason I give this a 9 instead of a 10, is that then I have no where to go with rating Marty's other great films, several of which (like Goodfellas) are among the best movies ever made.

This story is about one individual that cheatedThis is a life about one broker that has stolen from others to fill his own fortune. With that in mind this is no way any type of documentary or fact on what every broker is like on Wall Street. This story is about one individual that cheated others to get on top and ran a unprofessional office that was out of control. Some situations was troubling, while some was just comical. Without laying out spoilers, this is not a film you will exit the theaters with some form of a connection to the protagonist. This is a rise-and-fall scenario of a rags to riches story.

Now I did see two families leave half-way into the film and I've read/heard from others mentioning this film should be rated X, that there's so much F-bombs and sex acts. My response I tell them and anyone:

1. What makes you think this is a film to bring the family to? Just because it was released during the Xmas holiday does not mean you can bring the kids and the grandparents. The film is rated R for a reason. As a parent, you should've used a bit more common sense and at least research the film on parent review sites before taking the family.

2. If you've seen Martin Scorsese's previous films, you know what you are getting yourself into. Goodfellas says the f-bomb 300 times. This film will say it at least 506 times. If you can't handle that amount of language in films like Goodfellas, then what makes you think you can watch this film and enjoy it?

3. There is a few short sex scenes, but the detail is what you experience in any rated R film these days. It's no way close to full detail like an actual porn film and anyone saying that is just exaggerating. Some of the scenes did drag a bit, but like any Scorsese film there's a reason for it and it's a opening hook that leads to a further altercation with the characters. The protagonist did lived a wild life!

Did I enjoy the film? Well... yes I did! In a sense, this film shows anyone that when you have the ambition to move up in life from nothing, you can be whatever you want to be. But with that in mind, you can loose everything if you loose moral values and live a life that progresses to go out of control (stealing, drugs, etc). If you have an open-mind and don't mind Scorsese's work and way of directing, then you'll enjoy the film.

If you hate language, drugs, and typical rated R sexual situations/nudity, then you're better off watching another film.

This is Black Comedy and very good at it. If nudity, drug taking plus disrespect to women, palsy sufferers, etc. worries you that much, don't go. Pick a Jane Austen film adaptation.

The movie has a message but if you need to think about it by the end, then you need help. This is based on true events and the film follows the book in many scenes. So no point in saying it's vulgar, that is in many ways the point of the movie. If the story wasn't sensational and REAL, then the film would be meaningless.

On the negative side, I was disappointed that there was not more made of Jordan's personal relationship with his wife. Given the movie was half and hour too long it was probably not possible to fit anything else in.

Great film for those that like the dark arts......

Clockwork Orange, Goodfellas, and Blues Brothers are are some great examples that got the thumbs down by the hierarchical command structure that runs cliche hollywood.

After sitting through critic darling movies like Dallas Buyers club and Goodfellas/Boogie Nights wanna be movie American Hustle I was throttled by The Wolf of Wall Street. It shows us the good and bad executed in a way that the people who make movies say 'holy *$#$' how can I make a movie like that. The mixing of the music and the performances were way ahead of their time and even Kubrick would've been amazed by this future master-work film.

So if you like the predictable cliche endings and like to stay in the boundaries watch this movie five years from now when all the copycat directors reverse engineer this future cult classic. Then you can join the crowd that say. 'Oh I didn't like it when it first came out but now I like it a lot'. In the meantime for your cowardice and lack of vision you can go work in McDonalds.

Summary: The Wolf of Wall Street is entertaining, powerful and extremely amusing. 94/100 [A-]

The Wolf of Wall Street is insane, hilarious and entertaining. It boasts an amazing cast and a vibrant direction. I'm not a huge fan of DiCaprio's previous work, but after seeing this I'm very impressed with his acting. Moving on, it's a three hour flick, and it wasn't boring at all. Despite its long running time it kept me interested and entertained. I usually don't like this type of films, but this one was very funny and powerful. The characters and the story are interesting too.

The cast is absolutely faultless. The main character performed by DiCaprio is completely nuts, he's riotously funny and you care for him. Although some moments in the movie were too surrealistic, I still love it because it's an extremely well executed biopic that manages to be hilariously entertaining and inspiring. It is about leadership and craziness; it's a strange flick filled with a bunch of obscene and bizarre moments. It definitely earns an R rating, it has some... explicit stuff. [A-]

One of them starred Robert DeNiro and Leonardo DiCaprio. And now The Wolf of Wall Street came out and they loved it and it's based on true events and based on the memoir of the same name by Jordan Belfort played by Leonardo DiCaprio himself. Like most Martin Scorsese films nowadays this one is intense. This is in fact the fifth time Leonardo DiCaprio worked with Martin Scorsese. They previously worked with each other in Gangs of New York, The Aviator, The Departed and Shutter Island. Everyone is going on and on about Leonardo DiCaprio getting an Oscar for his performance as Jordan Belfort but instead won an Golden Globe Award for Best Actor - Motion Picture Musical or Comedy as for some reason this is actually a black comedy but it has loads of biographical drama. Now let me get to something what is really important. Everybody loves The Wolf of Wall Street because your mum loves Leonardo DiCaprio and your dad loves to look at Margot Robbie. And you should't be watching it with your parents because why? Sex, drugs, nudity and up to 569 uses of the F-word. Martin Scorsese is known for making films that contains alot of swearing for the most part and if you're looking for a kid friendly film from Martin Scorsese, check out Hugo because everything else he's ever directed is never going to be child friendly. But if you regret watching a Martin Scorsese film with your Mum and Dad, The Wolf of Wall Street will be a prime example. That being said, The Wolf of Wall Street is a fantastic amazing film, lots of great acting by all cast especially from Leonardo DiCaprio. Although the film is 3 hrs long but that just makes the biographical moments look so epic and fantastic. The Wolf of Wall Street is one of the best films of 2013. Expand

It's a fun and of course overly exaggerated (or do you think everything happened in real life like in the film?) way of telling a biographic history of man that tricked and conned the biggest con artists in the world, wall street. Please do take it personal and be a 21st century offended little petty person and do take your pseudo-intellectual analysis or just enjoy and laugh your ass off during 3 hours. Expand

A vida de Jordan Belfort de uma forma que só o Martin Scorsese sabe contar!

A narrativa aqui flui muito bem, e a cada cena ficamos mais empolgados para saber até onde tudo aquilo vai levar. Os personagens são muito carismáticos e o elenco, além de conter vários nomes de Hollywood, está muito bem escalado, com claro destaque ao Leonardo DiCaprio, que entra no personagem e encara varias cenas difíceis e a Margot Robbie, que vai muito além de um corpo bonito, visto seu desempenho no ultimo arco. O filme rende varias cenas cômicas, "brinca" com diversos temas sérios, mas sem incentiva-los, o que exige uma destreza precisa por parte da direção. A fotografia, trilha sonora, cenografia e figurino estão no ponto, o que deixa sua identidade ainda mais unica.

Como conclusão, algumas pessoas podem ter deixado de entender a importância da obra e acabando julgando mal. Tudo que nos resta é justamente a reflexão do que é assistido, porque alguns temas ainda são presentes na sociedade, e nada adianta fazer de conta como se não existissem, principalmente se tratando do mercado financeiro, que é um suicídio psicológico.

His range is on full display on "The Wolf Of Wall Street" I'm absolutely certainMovies like 2013s "The Wolf of Wall street" "Django" "Inception" and "Titanic" are why Leonardo DiCaprio is my personal favorite actor to ever grace the earth. His range is on full display on "The Wolf Of Wall Street" I'm absolutely certain that this film alone has inspired hundreds if not thousands to pursue a stockbroker career. Thank you Martin Scorsese. The film is engaging, funny, and even at times like the ending, thought provoking. Scorsese does a phenomenal job highlighting what life was probably like at Stratton Oakmont, a real company that was lower than pond scum and scammed the hell out of thousands. The story of Belfort is also incredible and well complimented by Leos phenomenal acting. Can we also get a nod for Jonah Hill and Margot? They acted the hell out of their roles! This is the best acting I've seen in a film hands down. The dedication to the characters by the cast is unmatched by any other film in the last ten or so years. The acting, scenery, music, real story, and environment make this a cult classic. Thank you Scorsese. Its outrageous, sometimes borderline absurd, but that's what makes this film special. Expand

I didn't care for the characters, but I damn did have a great time watching 'The Wolf of Wall Street'. It's absolutely nuts, and I mean that in a positive way.

Leonardo DiCaprio simply never puts an acting foot wrong, this is the sixth film I've seen of his and I love (fwiw: all 9/10+) them all. Phenomenal actor! He is outstanding here as Jordan Belfort, the guy this film is based upon. As noted, I didn't really ever care for Jordan but DiCaprio makes it impossible not to enjoy watching events throughout.

Jonah Hill (Donnie) comes in with a very good performance, the type of which I hadn't previously seen from him; closest being, in terms of quality, 'Moneyball'. Margot Robbie, meanwhile, isn't easy to forget as Naomi. Though none of the following standout big, it's pleasant to see Jon Bernthal, Matthew McConaughey and Jon Favreau, among others, appear.

The almost three hour run time, aside from a couple of moments, goes by fairly quickly. A big reason for that is the sheer bonkers nature of the plot, which goes in so many different directions it's impressive. It doesn't, as I've already mentioned, breed likeability for the characters but I definitely had a fun time watching it all unfold. I guess it depends on what you, as a viewer, prefer. I got the desired amount of entertainment.

The film, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, was a thrilling portrayal of the wild and debaucherous life of Jordan Belfort, a stockbroker who rose to fame in the 1990s.

DiCaprio's performance was outstanding - he truly embodied the persona of Belfort, making him both charismatic and despicable at the same time. The supporting cast, including Jonah Hill and Margot Robbie, were also fantastic, bringing depth and nuance to their roles.

The film's pacing was excellent, with a perfect balance of drama, humor, and action. The cinematography was also stunning, with beautiful shots of New York City and other locations. The soundtrack was also excellent, featuring a range of music that perfectly matched the tone of each scene.

The movie has been nominated for Oscar in at least 5 categories including Best Film, Best Director (Martin Scorsese) and Best Leading Actor (Leonardo DiCaprio as Jordan Belfort, a New York stock broker).

To be honest, I am not a big fan of either Scorsese or DiCaprio, but after having seen this movie I completely agree that they deserve these nominations.
The movie is based on Belfort's memoirs that he published as a book with the same name.
This is Belfort's story of rise and fall. He created a brokerage company from scratch and made many millions of dollars utilizing a few dirty schemes and human desire to get rich fast.

He was investigated by FBI, tried and found guilty. While doing his time he decided to write this book.
The movie is criticized by many people to have too much sex, drug abuse and vulgarity. In my opinion, it is done extremely well and is thought provoking. A bit too long though.

Based on the memoir of the same name The Wolf of Wall Street recounts Jordan Belfort's perspective on his career as a stockbroker in New York City and the way in which his firm, Stratton Oakmont, engaged in rampant corruption and fraud.

Di Caprio is as good as ever in the lead role and the rest of the cast, including Jonah Hill and the stunning Margot Robbie, are also excellent. With a running time of three hours it is perhaps a little too long but this movie is genuinely funny and I was entertained throughout. Some have criticised the film for glorifying the criminal lifestyle it aims to satirise, and I can see their point as we never really see the consequences of his actions, but seeing as the idea is to show events from Belfort’s point of view I don’t really have any issue with this personally. Besides when you see what the people on Wall Street still get away with even now there doesn’t really seem to be any real consequences for these people anyway!

Leo, Jonah, Chandler, Mconoghay, they're all fantastic. Vibrance energy, hutzphah! gallor. They never miss a beat and are always fun too watch. The frentic pace of the film is perfectly complimented by the blaring in your face visual and editing of the film. Coupled with the 4th wall breaking style of narration, it really drags you into the ride. Problem is, the film is an hour too long. Leo's constant energy wears on you. Its so much for so long that you get lost in the ocean that is the wolf of wallstreet. The length also kind of drowns out Chandler. His character is left stuck mostly in the background as if he's more set decor than character. Chandler brings life to the moments he's in, but I just wish part of the three hours I invested spent more time with him, tghey could've cut a drug fueled scene or two for him. The tale is so sprawling that once you watch you seem to agree with its runtime, but when you reconsider, you will realize that you only gave it a pass because its a scorsese film. It's damn fine film, and some damn fine performance, with some great style, but overall it wears on the viewer. Buy it, rent it, netflix it, however you do it it, see it, but chances are you'll prefer it at home with a pause button. Expand

Jonah Hill had a hilarious character that branched pretty far from his usual shtick. The color palettes on screen would pop but still looked blanched when in a working environment which made for a cool if subtle effect. The domestic violence seemed very realistic without becoming overly sentimental, which sounds evil but works for such an unabashedly greed consumed character arch. The music choices became a problem in the second half of the movie. Playing the food fighters in an otherwise oscarworthy film was a huge mistake, it was out of place, and most aggregiously a song that came out decades after the time period portrayed. There was another song that starts with a call and response toward the end (which I won't spoil) that also seemed very out of place and disrupted the flow of the movie. Don't let that stop you from seeing it though; it's strengths overshadow it's weaknesses Expand

The amazing part about this film is that it is full of debauchery, disgusting acts, and just absolute greed and selfishness, yet I find myself rooting for Belfort and the rest of Stratton Oakmont. I know I am not supposed to, yet I absolutely did. Helmed by the always reliable Martin Scorsese, The Wolf of Wall Street lives up to the hype for me and delivers. It is quite over the top and hard-hitting, sometimes to degrees where it becomes like, "Oh come on," but regardless, it is endlessly watchable. DiCaprio did great as expected and is undoubtably the reason why I sort of aligned myself with Belfort in spite of his horrendous acts of disregard and debauchery throughout. I thought Jonah Hill was good, not great. The real star of the show here though has to be Terrence Winter. The script is impeccable and is truly why this one will live on, as it is quotable at every turn. Not my favorite film turned out by Scorsese, but regardless, it is better than most and one of the best of 2013. Expand
