This was one of the worst movies I have seen. I do not know why I stayed maybe because I thought it would get better. I expected with Leonardo the movie would be worthy of watching. do not waste your money .Pure waste of time and out tickets were free.
Terrible acting! If he wasn't screwing people for money, he was screwing people - literally! Can't believe he is up for an Oscar for this movie - no comparison to some of his other films. Terrible story!
Brilliant!
Boring.
It was a great movie! Yes a lot of drugs and sex but it was great! Don't listen to the prudes that say its terrible. I went to see it with my sister and we both loved it! Great acting!
superb acting. Leonardo DiCaprio knocked it out of the park. Surprisingly hilarious as well. Do not let the negative reviews sway you from watching this movie, see for yourself, you will not regret it
I wish more thought would go into the dialogue and story, than just a constant focus on the women. As a young woman I am so tired of going to movies and feeling uncomfortable. Nudity is fine, I enjoy it when it's tasteful and adds to the plot, but just why does it have to be so overwhelming, and seems to be the only allure to movies these days. My girlfriends and I walked out.
one of the most pathetic movies made. Save your money and the huge total of 3 long, gruelling hours of your life that you can never get back. If that is all Hollywood offers we are in serious trouble. Yes, it might be about a "real" person, seriously, someone should have put him out of his misery
Not worth your money. The story could of been told not so explicitly.
Strongly suggest you avoid this movie. Every other word is an F shot or worse. If the actors are not snorting cocaine or involved in obscene acts of sex, they are drunk and popping pills. Why not act? why show such depravity except for shock. Please find another movie where you leave feeling the world is a good place.
this movie was entertaining for the first 20-30 mins... then I couldn't wait for it to end... was like watching the same commercial over and over again!!!!!! AWEFUL
Well I was waiting for this movie to come along so I could enjoy it but I can honestly say it was nothing but trash. It is poor acting, terrible language non stop throughout the movie and lots of pornography. What a total waste of time. Two people left before I did and then two people walked out when I did...I lasted maybe 40 minutes. A stupid story line. Surely the stockbrokers of New York do not really live like this. I know they are no doubt high rollers but this was far beyond. What a waste of an afternoon....Save your money and your time. I asked for my money back and the manager did accommodate me - all was not lost.
There just isn't enough naked ladies in movies. Why is it ok to see shows about murder and violence but sex is frowned on. I think bumping uglies is better than decapitation or stabbing zombies in the brain although that's fun too.
I laughed my head off. You're adults right. Then you shouldn't be offended by the sex and drugs. I've seen much worse on TV. Leonardo doesn't disappoint. I also watched American Hustle and Out Of The Furnace and they are not even close to the entertainment of The Wolf Of Wall Street. Go see the movie. You won't be sorry.
This is porn. Garbage.
There should be a ZERO stars rating for junk movies like this one. Some people say it's funny? There was nothing funny about it. I wish I had walked out.
That's entertainment! Actually know people that live the overindulgent life . Some are complaining of the abundant sex scenes and drugs. Yet they turn on their television sets and watch endless murders, rapes and all forms of violence. Scrocese, Dicaprio a 5 star rating .
Wildly entertaining, worth the time and money, don't bring any one under the age of 18.
Leonardo was fantastic as always! It didn't seem long, kept my interest all the way through. It always amazes me how horrible human beings can really be! It opened my eyes to an addicts life.
Just another diatribe of Hollywood's non-stop attack on capitalism by world's most capitalistic industry.
Excellent acting by Leonardo DiCaprio. Film is based on the memoirs of Jordan Belfort. Fi,m is graphic and not for everyone but it had to be to accurately portray Belfort's various addictions. There are some people like him in the real world. Scorcesse did a fine job in this bio, even though some aspects for me a little over emphasized in film which why I can'y give film 5 stars and only 4. Rob Reiner played an excellent supporting role in film. I give this film an "R" rating.
I saw it yesterday and loved it. At first I was apprehensive because of the low ratings but I'm so glad I went. Dicaprio was amazing in this and so funny. We totally enjoyed the movie.
Unbelievable how some idiots who take offence to sex and drugs would not care to read a review and still have the gull to see a x rated movie. Shame on you. Grow a pair, step out of your miserable lives and see that not everyone follows the path of your boring pathetic selves. Acting was incredible, dialogue was hilarious and the storyline had everything from romance to action. Get a grip people.
Great acting thought Rob Reiner was a great supporting actor in film. A lot of naughty stuff and language issues in film; Hard to believe this person actually existed in real life.
Totally sick to think that this is entertainment to anyone. Best thing I did was walk out and get a refund. Total money making junk.
Jordan Belfort, failed meat packer, was briefly on Wall Street. I'll bet he's hugely entertained at this fantasy, supposedly true pornographic nonsense. I despise this movie. Long, boring, repetitive pap. No stars.
I loved the movie, yes it has sex and some words not suitable for children but this is an adult movie!!! I found it funny and got a kick out of it. Stop being so serious!! It's just fun.
The Boiler Room with no gravitas. Dialog that had me constantly rolling my eyes and moaning. What a sad joke that Scorsese's name is on this abortion.
This was the extreme version of 'BLOW' and 'The Boiler Room' wrapped into one. Wow. Yes, lots of nudity, and a lot of drugs and I was starting to think the characters were going to get away with it as it took too long to start showing consequences (btw DiCaprio voiceover warns you of all that at the beginning so if you stuck around for the 3hrs it's cause the movie was worth watching), but wow..great dialogue and if that's actually based on true events, it blew my mind.
Wow. Based on actual events! I was impressed with everyones 80's / early 90's greed. I started wanting to see the downfall quickly though. It was starting to be just too much fantasy lavish lifestyle to not have consequences happen faster.
Great movie and it was hard to find seats as every Theatre was SOLD OUT . FUN AND ENTERTAINING.
Good story line, but alot of repetition, too long too much sex, drugs & swearing. Should be rated X Don't take ur kids to see it!!
This is an abolutely horrible movie. I am disapointed that an excellent actor like Dicaprio would have sunk to this level of vulgarity.
I knew I would enjoy this movie, but I had a few choices what I wanted to see and all the comments about how depraved it was and how much nudity and swearing it had in it put it to the top of my list to watch and I loved it. Thanks all you overbearing ancient religious zealots!
Should have left the theater, kept thinking it would get better but no, more of the same. Swearing and sex.
I absolutely agree with the person that left the movie, I wish my sister and I done the same thing. This movie is a piece of JUNK, mindless endless use of the "F" word, what are the writers using for brains these days??? Way too long, way too graphic, stay home, save your money!
This was the worst movie I've ever seen. I am so disappointed that Dicaprio agreed to do this movie. I agree with everyone that has stated it should have been rated as a porno movie.....disgusting. I usually check the reviews before going to a movie but didn't this time.....the tv trailer was misleading. My own fault of course and it won't happen again. There should be a "O" available in the rating section!
I did not know what to expect when I watched this movie, but I now understand why in an approx. 1/2 full theatre less than 5 people watching the movie were women. This movie is rude.
Repetitive, overlong and just plain junk. I think this is the first time I've rated a movie so low.
This movie is depraved. I am amazed that DiCaprio would sink so low. I had to leave the theater.
Excellent acting throughout. Not for everyone that's for sure but all the fuss about the swearing and nudity? Please ! Music videos which our kids are watching feature nude girls (pretending to sing) And why no outcry about the crazy violence in most films? So gratuitous violence is okay for most people but nudity isn't? Give me a break.
Garbage ,garbage,garbage,Did I say garbage
Leonardo was amazing, great story line.
Amazing, a true masterpiece. How are these retards giving less than 5 stars??
I thought it was a good story it was a little graphic at Times but all in all good to go and for the people who thought otherwise do some research next time did you not see the preview,
too long, too much repetition a short story stretched beyond belief
Absolutely fantastic! This is entertainment! All those people writing poor reviews are probably soccer moms and virgins. Excellent story, excellent acting. You will no doubt see this at the Oscars.
This was easily the best movie of 2013. It's got it all. Leonardo's performance was stellar. 3 hours goes by like 1 hour.
There are no wolves in this movie.
waste of money. So disappointed.
