Fantastic film that will polarize viewers, like many great films before it.

I expected this film to be good, but not THIS good! One of my favorite from Scorsese.

Scene by scene, there is no doubt that Scorsese achievemening clean film is technically virtuosic and wild, though a bit too long. And a big smile on my face when SPOILER SPOILER the fbi busts their asses in the end. But please, PLEASE, tell me scorsese didn't sympathise with this charater? I mean like wtf is that piece of shit moral if he did. He did, right? I couldn't help but feel that he did....
Alright reading stuff on internet I finally get this movie( MIGHT BE SPOILERS):"ultimately I think if anyone watches this movie, at the end of “Wolf of Wall Street,” they’re going to see that we’re not at all condoning this behavior. In fact we’re saying that this is something that is in our very culture and it needs to be looked at and it needs to be talked about. Because, to me, this attitude of what these characters represent in this film are ultimately everything that’s wrong with the world we live in" - DiCaprio"Belfort is a bad man, money made him happy, he didn’t learn a lesson, and he was never really punished.Why wasn’t he punished? Because he’s rich.Why tell his story? Because Belforts run the world.To tack on a “happy ending” in which Belfort gets punished or is revealed to be secretly miserable isn’t just pandering to audience wish-fulfillment. It would be worse than that.Pretending that Belfort learns his lesson, or hates what he’s done, or is punished would be capitulating to how the powerful want us to see them. The powerful want us to think they are miserable so that we don’t try to take power from them and become miserable ourselves. The powerful want us to think that the systems in place for making them learn their lessons function properly. The powerful want us to think they are repentant so that we’ll leave them alone to keep fucking us.The rich and powerful LOVE the narrative that “the rich and powerful are secretly crying inside.” They invented it" - taken from somebody's comment on the webIf this is the case, which I believe it is, the this movie is awesome. This was told through the eyes of belfort himself. As I think it more throuh it makes more sense. Then the only real problem the movie has it that it does the too fatiguing. But otherwise, I think Scorsese has told a wonderful movie, which a wonderful moral

A contemporary Goodfellas, filmed in a way that modern audiences can watch it. A brilliantly entertaining film. The protagonist is a complete asshole and can be unlikable at times but you just love the film overall.
I would give this film an 8 out of 10

Love this movie. My second favorite scorcese film, the first being CASINO at #15, and this at #20, Goodfellas is my 4th favorite Departed being my 3rd.

A little unoriginal but that shouldn’t deny how great the film is!

Can't believe i'm saying this but wayyyy to much satire. I don't think I have ever hated a character that I was supposed to find funny as much as Jonah Hill's character. I was still invested in the outcome of the story, but I don't think I will enjoy it upon a second viewing.

It's similar to Goodfellas, but still unique enough to stand on its own. It has similar story structure to other classics like Goodfellas and Casino, but still different. Probably his most enjoyable film and the acting is great all-around with standouts being Jonah Hill and DiCaprio
