Wolf of Wall street was an incredibly well acted and well directed movie showing the seedy underbelly of a very controversial subject.
Jordan Belfort got away with stone cold financial murder as it were. He still has not made restitution and probably never will......

You got to love capitalist America!

Have only seen American hustle. Also a good film!!

If you like Wolf of Wallstreet watch Margin Call, Rogue Trader and Too big to fail.

Thought blackfish was really good. The fifth estate will probably not get the awards it deserves.

12 Years a Slave will walk away with plenty of awards and it will do the same at the Oscars.

Boiler Room...better movie...

Wolf of Wall Street...the focus on the excesses were too excessive:)...repetitive...we get the point...same message could have been conveyed in 0,5-1 hour less...

Actors must be a matter of taste as I would put the local school play actors ahead of De Caprio and I bracket him with the other most ovarrated imo Will Smith and Kevin Costner, altho I'm not a regular movie goer.
