The Wolf of Wall Street


It took me awhile to sit down and write this review because I was amazed on how great a movie it was.
The movie is based on the true story of Jordan Belfort, from his rise to a wealthy stockbroker living the high life to his fall involving crime, corruption and the federal government. Leonardo DiCaprio gives the performance of his lifetime and Martin Scorsese creates a movie that stands up to his best films. That’s how good this movie is.

Jonah Hill proves once again that he is worthy of “A” List material.
Leo DiCaprio should win the Oscar because Matthew McConaughey was good in his brief cameo in Wall St. but should not win the Oscar for Dallas Buyers Club. Leo gives the performance of his life.

Margot Robbie also gives a breakthrough performance as Leo’s 2nd wife.

The movie is 3 hrs long but it’s so good it doesn’t feel like it.
Verdict:
This is Leo’s Raging Bull. Instant Classic for the ages.
