Synopsis:
Martin Scorsese directs this true story of New York stockbroker Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio). From the American dream to corporate greed, Belfort goes from penny stocks and righteousness to IPOs and a life of corruption in the late 80s - earning him the title "The Wolf of Wall Street". Money. Power. Women. Drugs. Temptations were for the taking and the threat of authority was irrelevant. For Jordan and his wolf pack, more was never enough.

Step aside DeNiro! - The Wolf of Wall Street review by Milstead On Movies

Spoiler Alert
27/06/2014

Leonardo DiCaprio & Martin Scorsese have a brilliant collaboration going on which is beginning to rival the screen legend's partnership with the great director.

This is the fifth film which DiCaprio has worked with Scorsese, following Gangs Of New York, The Aviator, The Departed & Shutter Island.

The Wolf Of Wall Street amounts pretty much to Goodfellas of the financial world. Based on the true story of Jordan Bellfort, a drug-addicted, sex-addicted, money-addicted stockbroker who lives life to full excess and pays the penalty when the FBI investigate his wrongdoing and underhand tactics.

This black comedy is as black as they come with DiCaprio, Jonah Hill and co all playing unsympathetic characters who get rich making others poor, indulging in the lifestyles of rich and famous and taking an insane amount of drugs.

Although the characters are morally unpleasant, this film is absolutely hilarious with the characters suffering from their own greed and self-indulgence.

In another year, DiCaprio might have won the Best Actor Oscar for this performance (he lost out to Matthew McConaughey for Dallas Buyers Club).

At nearly 3 hours, this film is a long slog and the first hour drags a little, but it's full steam ahead after that and a brilliant comedy of yuppie greed during the 1980's and 90's.

High octane! - The Wolf of Wall Street review by TH

Spoiler Alert
07/01/2015

This film presses all the buttons in terms of sex, drugs and rock and roll (and lots of money!) but its psychopathic (almost exhausting to watch!) pace leaves you in no doubt that this is not a world in which you'd want to live in! Cleverly crafted modern fable.

I gave up - The Wolf of Wall Street review by MS

Spoiler Alert
22/04/2018

Both salacious and tedious. The acting is good, but I didn't believe any of it. I gave up after an hour. And that was an hour too much.

Critic review

The Wolf of Wall Street review by George Hooper - Cinema Paradiso

A word rarely used in the same sentence as the name Martin Scorsese is comedy, from dark family dramas like Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore to his much better known crime dramas like Casino and The Departed, Scorsese usually avoids comedy like the plague. That’s what makes it so surprising that he decided to direct The Wolf of Wall Street, a completely unexpected yet awe inspiringly funny film thats hard to imagine being as good under anyone else's direction.

The film follows the titular Wolf of Wall Street, Jordan Belfort (Leonardo Dicaprio), a man whose sole drive is to make more money than the next man. His rise to power on Wall Street and the subsequent FBI investigation are married by Jordan’s extreme love of every single type of narcotic, his (extreme?) affection for women and his willingness to do anything to hold onto the riches he has amassed.

It’s easy to watch The Wolf of Wall Street and see a man corrupted by an industry that corrupts everyone and the film intentionally tries to foster this image but mostly you see a man coming into his true self, an identity he was born to have even if he hadn’t realised it yet. Jordan is a wicked man, a man willing to sell his soul for another dollar even before his slow decline into a world of shame and guilt. Denying his true self however may have left him happier.

Dicaprio is fantastic as usual as Jordan, bringing out every excentiricty of the man but bringing his own charm to the part as he uses those around him to further his enterprises. However, Dicaprio really shines in the films comedy moments, his complete devotion to the material makes for some of the funniest physical comedy with a crazy bender about halfway through the film leaving me in a fit of tears and laughter.

Populated with many other great actors from Jonah Hill to Kyle Chandler, the film is only really let down by Margot Robbie as Jordan’s trophy wife Naomi, a paper thin seductress. The only off note in the entire picture, Robbie doesn’t do the role justice but in the long run it doesn’t harm what turns out to be one of the funniest films you will see in 2014, a mixture of big belly laughs and plenty of drugs. Watching Jordan is a hell of a lot of fun despite his despicable nature.
