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 way this film has been treated in the public eye is nothing short of fascinating. In this climate you seldom find a film so neutral. I do not believe this film normalizes the actions taken by its protagonists nor does it condemn them. It simply lets them exist. This neutrality and rawness to everything it portrays is easily what makes the beauty of the film. In my opinion, you need to have that mindset about the title to really experience it as it is.

There are some are great individual scenes however it does seem too long. At ~180 mins I guess it is pretty good value for money, and manages to maintain the attention. Perhaps the fascination of watching bad behavior.

I really couldn't stand stand the jukebox soundtrack. Here's a scene, here's a massive chart hit that has a very literal connection to the subject of that scene. Paramount spent a small fortune licensing the use of the track. Here's 30 seconds or less, enjoy. FM Radio could learn a new trick.

Finally I have to say, Jordan Belfort isn't a cool dude Martin, or even an antihero Martin. He's just a prick that had an interesting life.

This movie was actually good despite the length. The movie has a really great cast of actors such as Dicaprio and Hill. The only bad thing about this movies was it becomes more similar to goodfellas in the end, but still a good film.

There’s so much going on and it’s so **** worth it. It’s funny, it’s exciting, it’s gripping, it’s from the heart and my favorite part of all it’s PORN. Frankly I don’t mind it (I’m incredibly horny all the time). Jonah hill deserved the Oscar for that performance. His expressions, his delivery everything was top notch. Margot, second best she’s ever performed. Everyone was just great tbh. TWOWS is such a tale that intoxicates you and pushes you away. Incredibly synonymous to goodfellas but done on a larger scale. Matthew McConaughey is so **** good. My account is dedicated to his character in the film. You truly can’t take your eyes off of him in those 6 minutes. The only thing that makes me upset is that this movie has been subjected to so many kringe motivation posts. It’s not emotionally impactful but it is entertaining. Very, very entertaining. Thsts the only reason it’s up there with the greats. It also teaches you a lot. A lot about crime, a lot about people, a lot about money, a lot about power. And how one can lose it all. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As an investment man myself, I find Wolf of Wallstreet extremely disrespectful to day traders. And that’s why I love this movie. You see, unlike other movies which require extensive knowledge of the stock market to really fully enjoy, Wolf Of Wallstreet is a tale of drugs, sex and honour (except that last part). And everyone loves drugs and sex (this is purely hypothetical mom). First, the characters of WOW are so vibrant. I constantly find myself laughing at their adorably hilarious moments, snorting white powder, doing the devils tangle and most of the time both. And the rich problems they face are just so stupid in nature that it makes the film so entertaining. Laundering money (clearly never heard of Crown Casino), cheating on their wives without them knowing, having an hour minute delay before the lemons kick in, these characters are just stupid fun. They are also emotional though. We see a drug fuelled Jorden tear his family apart when faced with losing his child and wife, when faced with death, Jorden wants to die on drugs – we even see him try to save his closest friend Donnie by alerting him that he was wired when snitching to the feds. That said, Wolf of Wall Street’ story is good but nothing revolutionary. Basing itself of Jorden Belfort’s time, manipulating the stock market and running a penny stock scam, it’s clear to any investment orientated person that WOW is not a movie directly about that. It’s sensationalised. You’re not going to learn anything about stocks, other than how corrupt the big players on wall street can be. The Story is complete though with an ending that has reasonable closure and couldn’t have been done a lot better. When it comes to cinematography, the movie doesn’t do anything too special. There are no crazy pan shots, nothing too high tech. They do a decent job of the huge orgy scenes and special effects when the characters are taking drugs. Other then that, they maybe could have done a bit more in the boat scene and used more expensive shots to really sell that multi, multi-millionaire feeling.
Overall definitely a favourite movie of mine but from a critical perspective probably about a 7-8, as while in terms of purely technical aspects, it’s really like a 6, it gains some points for being entertaining and highly pop cultural.

Movies 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 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.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie shows that Martin Scorsese can also direct good movies, when he doesn't focus on Mafia themes. There's no real good or bad in this one, it's just the story of how an incredibly greedy man with the help of his wife, friend(s), and a **** of cocaine got rich and lost it all in the end, and I absolutely loved every second of it, especially the scene, where he overdoses on illegal chemicals is absolutely golden on its own.

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.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie is just awesome. The first time at the cinema I did not like it, because sex was omnipresent, too much money and a soup of anything without interest. On the contrary, not without interest, this film puts a gray area under the light. This gray area is represented by a pre-adult band whose wolf finds a flaw in the system and who will enjoy so much that the scenes range from the simple **** to total planeattitude see coma. It's a bit like the money starts slowly and it ends with "I do not know where to put it". The evolution of the exploitation of the fault is long, can be a bit too much. The hunt is short. And the fall is immediate. But the film delivers a peach! The wolf speeches are fantastic is the fair magical actor game! An excellent moment.

Ce film est juste génial. La première fois au cinéma je n'ai pas aimé, car le sexe était omniprésent, trop d'argent et une soupe de n'importe quoi sans intérêt. Au contraire censés pas sans intérêt ce film met sous la lumière une zone grise. Cette zone grise sont représentés par une bande pré adulte dont le loup qui trouve une faille dans le système et qui va en profiter un max tellement que les scènes vont de la simple baise à la planeattitude totale voir le coma. C'est un peut comme l'argent ça commence doucement et ça fini par "je ne sais pas où le mettre" . L'évolution de l'exploitation de la faille est longue, peux être un peut trop. La traque est courte. Et la chute est immédiate. Mais le film délivre une pêche ! Les discours du loup sont fantastiques est le jeu d'acteur juste magique ! Un moment excellent.

Based on the real-life antics of Jordan Belfont Wolf of Wall Street is a well-paced, but overlong biography of a man who cheated and scammed his way before paying the price. Leonardo Di Caprio-a Scorsese regular now is great as the main character although its not a stretch by any means. Margot Robbie looks great although she has a thankless role. Jonah Hill and others make up Belfont's crazy colleagues and more than provide a few laugh out moments. Scorsese is branching even to this day and it is great to see the legend still at it, although I'd have preferred a better subject. Regardless, for fans of Scorsese and Leo The Wolf of Wall Street is a great film.Good Scorsese movie based on real life events Expand

The Wolf of Wall Street is fun, though maybe just a little bit too long. DiCaprio with yet another fantastic lead performance that we've grown accostumed to.

Found the beginning of the film a little mixed.ok the stock market world is in a very fast and mixed world, I tried to reflect it in the film but it came to me too complicated yet.
I couldn't focus very well on some scenes.

The only negative idea for the movie is that it has to be complicated in all its exceptions that have been transferred to the audience as well as everything else should be very well selected not only the very best players in the background but each player has done his job very well in the background.

When I watched the film, I didn't know it was from a real story or even a real person.
I would like to say without saying a lot of the film is very nice I was already nominated for the academy award at the same time the imdb 250 has succeeded in entering the list, ie, both critics and audiences have managed to take the note was nice.

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

So I wasn't surprised with theI confess I had some curiosity and some expectations when I went to see this movie. Scorcese and Di Caprio are two of the biggest names in the current film scene, and both have provided us with some nice films. So I wasn't surprised with the fuss around the movie but, when I saw it, I was very disappointed.

The film is based on an autobiographical book written by Jordan Belfort, a stockbroker who quickly enriched, through financial maneuvers of high risk and zero legality. The book describes not only the business but the life of luxury, drugs and sex that he took, and the way he eventually paid for it. The film, as far as we understand, is quite faithful to the book's account, and the book also makes an apparently true story. The film resembles "Goodfellas" in many ways, but with great differences in which the gangster movie gets the better of it. The main problem of this film lies in three essential points: The first point is the apparent glorification of the fraud and Belfort's dissolute lifestyle. The message passed by the film is "crime pays". It spends more than an hour telling us, in detail, the outrages of Belfort and his team of bastards without any need, shocking some public, who leave the cinema with the feeling that the film passes an ethically wrong message, and society does not need to receive it because it receives enough bad influences.

The second essential point is the absence of a counterpoint to the scenes of excesses shown. Okay, Belfort is a swine, drug addict and corrupt who has gotten rich too fast and too easy. So? Where is the counterpoint to that? He committed crimes, but what are the effects of his crimes? Who lost out on Belfort's crimes? How can audiences truly realize the size of his mistakes? The public never gets these answers because the film gets too lost in the details of Belfort's scandals. The movie makes people think that Belfort never harmed anyone, and that he was just crazy, or smart.

The third negative point is the construction of the characters. They are black-and-white, without the psychological complexity and refinement that we find in "Goodfellas", for example. There's no such thing here. The characters are summed up as junkies, sex offenders, eccentrics, some bored cops and little else. DiCaprio was well enough in his role, but being such an abject role, it's impossible to like and enjoy his performance.

I think Scorcese thought this film as a comedy, but the truth is that it is not funny. The film is morally shocking, not funny. So, it was a bad idea. This film would have been excellent if it had been conceived as a drama and had behind it some moral balance. That was not the case. It is a mad journey through senseless immorality, without notion and without any pretext than easy laughter, and this is quite unpleasant.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It’s one of the most entertaining films ever made about loathsome men. It stars Leonardo DiCaprio as the man who makes a fortune but then loses it all. This is an excessive film about excess, and a movie about appetites whose own appetite for compulsive pleasures seems bottomless. The things I liked about this film was that it is funny and entertaining. I don’t think that it needs improving. There are different characters they are: WOLF the memoirs of Jordan Belfort (DeCaprio). A man who went from financial struggle to one of the most immoral and corrupt stockbrokers on Wall Street. Belfort’s brought into the business by a Wall Street man (Matthew McConaughey in a one-scene role) who abuses the virtues of taking drugs as an appetizer to a 3-martini lunch Belfort made the cover of trade industry publications before he was 30. The police spent years investigating him, and he was banned from the securities business. He also served time for fraud and money laundering. The camera and cutting style the director uses here is very persuasive, so that we are excited by the cocky rich wall street broker and sense of ‘family’ on view in the Stratton Oakmont offices.

It's a 3-hour long film about corruption and fraud on Wall Street, featuring plenty of instances of drinking, drug use, sex, and curse words, so much so that a lot of people are bound to get ticked off by the film. And what I mentioned doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of what made the film so controversial. And yet, as controversial as it may be, the film is still fantastic. It's well-directed, well-written, funny, and it features fantastic performances, notably from Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill and Margot Robbie. I will warn that it's not for everyone, and if you don't feel like sitting through three hours of drinking, drugs, sex, cursing, corruption, scandal, fraud, and every other controversy you can think of, you might want to skip out on this one for something with a little less debate to it, but all things considered, "The Wolf of Wall Street" is an extremely memorable and well-constructed film that should stick with you long after you watch it.

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 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.

The review of echoplex01 made me remember how I often I do not look for the ways women are depicted in movies... It is a normative in Holly Wood to make women weak and fragile, and usually sex objects.

However, as for story telling, humor, truth, and a great insight of an American institution (Wall Street) that gives a pretty honest look at how the greedy stay greedy until they either plateau or fall.

While thoroughly entertaining, I cannot give more than a 7 because of the reality that will follow this movie... that more will think "I want to be rich too" after watching it, rather than "being rich doesn't buy happiness." A movie to further put the wasteful mentalities of Americans further and further into the void.

Director Martin Scorsese and his muse, Leonardo DiCaprio are back and are telling the true story of a man named Jordan Belfort in a movie titled 'The Wolf of Wall Street'.

What this movie focuses on is Belfort's (DiCaprio) journey into the world of Wall Street and how he becomes his own businessman running an illegal business, cheating his ignorant customers.

Belfort starts looking for different jobs and begins to get a sense of what it's like to work for the industry, he manages to persuade his customers to trust him and his talents are put to better use when he meets an eager business-inspiring man named Donnie Azoff (Jonah Hill). The two men hit it off together, discussing what they aspire to do and how to get there, and it's there that Jordan is introduced to smoking pot and consuming other heavy amounts of drugs.

After they kick-start their business and become established, Jordan then meets a woman named Naomi (Margot Robbie) and they buy an apartment together and quickly get married and get their lives settled.

There are many cameos in this movie from Matthew McConaughey, to Jon Favreau and Spike Jonze. But then there's Rob Reiner, who plays the father, Max Belfort in a performance so crazy and so obnoxious, he should've been considered for some awards for his role.

DiCaprio gives us one of his most charismatic performances since Steven Spielberg's 'Catch Me If You Can' (2002), here, he gives us some physical comedy and it is surprisingly funny. Jonah Hill shares fantastic chemistry with him as the over-the-top sidekick. The two actors clearly have fun in their roles which is great to see.

Martin Scorsese tells this story in a 3 hour movie, which is one main problem I have. I have seen many movies that are longer than three hours, ('Schindler's List', 'Titanic' and 'The Lord of the Rings'), but this movie has scenes that drag on for longer than ten minutes, even if it's a jokey scene, we get the punchline, but it still goes on for a few more minutes. I do not think that the infamous story of Jordan Belfort and how he cheated his way through Wall Street needed to be told in three hours, but the movie's enigma and entertaining scenes do keep you intrigued and you find yourself glued to the movie despite its vulgarity.

This movie is full of cold-hearted characters, drugs, filthy language, and many scenes of sex and graphic nudity. It's not for everyone and I can understand if one was to be offended with the movie's content. It can be a lot t handle for three hours, but once you get into the story, you'll be entertained.

Despite it's excessive promotion of drugs and its misogynistic theme, which I don't condole, the movie deserves merits for its whit and dark sense of humor. If you don't take it too serious, you won't get offended by its themes.

Frankly, I love it, and I'm interested in tasting "non-alcoholic" beer.

This is one of the best films of 2013, the acting, the directing was superb with out no words. Martin Scorsese is the best director out they just all of he's movies are one of the best and his other movies never let me down well my by gang's of new York. This movie is three hours and it feels like 1 hour because the movie goes by so fast that I didn't know the movie was almost finish and some people out they like news reporters and critics are saying that this movie is way to over the top and I got to say what movie Did they watch because I did not think it was over the top or silly.

Scorsese is questioning the moral values and taking an over the top approach. The result is great. I love the film all the way through. Di caprio was fantastic . It is definitely one of the best Scorsese films. Recommended.

I was a little bit disapointed by the movie. DiCaprio is great, as always, but I felt the movie was exactly what I expected. No surprises.

Belfort just multiplies it ten times. This is no masterpiece, but a very good movie. Expand

But, also being a Scorsese fan, I can't say it's even close to his best work or that it's as good as people claim i to be. It is not the movie of the decade, not even near and it is certainly not one of the best movies made in the recent years. 'The Wolf of Wall-Street' is a good, or better than your average 'COED party meets money' movie at best, a movie with a set of very strong qualities but also with a set of equally strong weaknesses.

The actors are definitely among the strong sides of the movie. Johan Hill delivered an Oscar-winning performance, showing an ability to add drama to his usually shallow comedy roles, while Leonardo DiCaprio actually did deliver one of the best roles of his career. Exceptionally authentic and strong, DiCaprio actually manages to present the obviously 'over-decorated' story of Jordan Belfort as realistic as possible. He could've lost only to Matt and the 'Dallas Buyers Club' and so he did, but the loss doesn't tarnish the role in any aspect. The technical details are amazing and Scorsese's direction certainly made the film come out strong, despite it's obvious flaws and I'm sure that he is only one of the handful of directors that could've made this movie so good.

As far as the weaknesses go - should I even bother? The movies is certainly too long and should've been at least 30 minutes shorter. At least! The plot line is feeble and full of holes, not to mention quite unbelievable at moments. Some of the scenes were borderline porn and quite unnecessary, leaving the impression that they were filmed in order to gain popularity among the viewers because, well - sex sells. Sadly, doing the film so that the people like it, often means a loss in quality. This movie is a clear example.

The score might be disproportionally high, but 'The Wolf of Wall Street' is really not a bad movie, it's fun, it's dynamic and interesting, with great actors and direction, but there are some essential flaws that keep it on a secure distance from the best ones, which is why I've gotten angry with the commercially oriented people that labeled this film as one of the best they've seen. Despite it's inherent quality, it is far from that standard.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Voracious Bull

Every time I try to enjoy a Martin Scorcese movie post-1980 I ask myself what made Raging Bull so great? Did Marty burn out after his Jake LaMotta bio, the same way Coppola did after Apocalypse Now? These were risky movies, driven by passion, bordering on madness. Did Marty and Francis lose their natural passion for making films because industry priorities dismissed 70's-style hyper-realism for sensational summer blockbusters and CGI spectacles? And why is Scorcese considered one of the greatest director when he really only made one truly superb movie?

When I first saw Raging Bull in 1980 I immediately knew I was watching something that transcended the typical cinematic experience. Genius was shimmering out of every perforated frame flickering on the screen. Paul, Marty, Bobby, Mike and Thelma created something that was completely absorbing. The style and substance was perfectly fueled by a flawless emotional narrative. Every element was orchestrated just right. The audience was spellbound. We were watching greatness. A rare and unique organic creation. I'm still waiting for Robert Redford to correct a travesty of justice and hand his Ocscar over to it's rightful owner. And I'm still waiting for Scorcese to match his own brilliance. But that's like expecting Tarantino to top Pulp Fiction. There's a better chance Orson Welles rises up from the dead to one up Citizen Kane.

After Raging Bull, Scorcese has made a string of pictures ranging from not bad to pretty good. All well-made, thoughtful and meticulously crafted films, but nothing special; certainly nothing profound. Contrary to popular opinion, Goodfellas is not a great movie. I was not swept away by the saga. I was annoyed rather by the fragmented non-stop soundtrack and incessant up-tempo style. Marty wasn't risking anything anymore. He seemed to be afraid of boring the audience. Perhaps he was trying to revive the 1940's never-let-up screwball-bouncing farcical Preston Sturges and co. comedies. But this is a mafia film. This should have been right up Marty's alley. It's been almost a quarter of a century since De Niro got his face busted in a boxing ring. Since the raw, robust and naive will-power of LaMotta's youth plunged into the pathetic, brutal, bone-headed stupidity of his later years. Similarly, Scorsese hasn't registered a knock-out punch since. Would his ensuing movies be considered great if someone else directed them? Would I have liked them all better if Raging Bull had never been made?

The Wolf of Wall Street is another exhausting affair. It tries too hard to excite and entertain us. It's afraid of slowing down, allowing us to ponder or examine the complexities of excessive greed, shameless wealth and unbridled capitalism. It desperately wants to arouse us. Like a neglected clown at a child's birthday trying to be loved and taken seriously while draining the life out of the party. Give Leo and Jonah an "A" for effort. They couldn't have tried harder if they broke out into song and dance every ten minutes. And they convincingly appeared to enjoy themselves freely indulging in coke, ludes and naked women every five minutes. It was nice of Leo to step back while Margot Robbie took her routine and obligatory, supporting-actress hissy fit. And you know a filmmaker has a lot of faith and confidence in his work when a superfluous narration track is added, to plug those terrifying noiseless gaps. Whatever happened to poignant, suspenseful, sure-footed, gripping, emotionally-arresting dramas that take you on a nervy, wild ride to a thoroughly gratifying climax? A truly great director from Kurosowa to, well, Scorcese-(circa 1979) would have plotted the rise and fall of a maniacal protagonist along deeper and more affecting lines even at the risk boring its audience for one minute.

Hilarious film, DiCaprio deserved his Oscar that year lmao. This film is funny and at the same time tells a true story very well. It does drag on a bit but whatever. Extra content I guess. Very good film. Watch it.

The screenplay by Terence Winter is adapted from the memoir of the same name by Jordan Belfort and recounts from Belfort's perspective his career as a stockbroker in New York City and how his firm Stratton Oakmont engaged in rampant corruption and fraud on Wall Street which ultimately led to his downfall. Leonardo DiCaprio (who also produced the film) stars as Belfort, with Jonah Hill as his business partner and friend Donnie Azoff, Margot Robbie as his second wife Naomi Lapaglia, and Kyle Chandler as Patrick Denham, the FBI agent who tries to bring him down. Rob Reiner, Jon Bernthal, Jon Favreau, Jean Dujardin, Joanna Lumley, and Matthew McConaughey also feature. The film marks the director's fifth collaboration with DiCaprio, after Gangs of New York (2002), The Aviator (2004), The Departed (2006), and Shutter Island (2010), as well as his second collaboration with Winter after the HBO television series Boardwalk Empire (2010–14).
