Review of The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) by Marissa H — 04 Sep 2014
I watched this first in theaters after winning a ticket for it on the radio. I went in not expecting much, boy was I in for a shock! This film really shows you the depths of Leonardo DiCaprio's acting. He plays the role of Jordan Belfort like he was made for it. He makes you believe you're on the journey with his character along with him through his life and events. Jonah Hill as Donny was casted wonderfully, I couldn't imagine anyone else playing his character. The 2 of them really work excellent together. Overall this is an amazing movie, and I would highly recommend everyone seeing it.
Only thing I must say is if you're one of "those types" of people that are offended by nudity, drug use and swearing this ISN'T the film for you. I think every sentence in this film has a profanity used in it. LOL! Also it's definitely an 18+ film, I wouldn't imagine bringing a 14 year old to see it. At the theatre when I first saw it they were checking IDs at the door and turning away anyone underage.
But if you're looking for a film with brilliant acting, great plot/story, funny, etc then this is a must watch!!
Leonardo should have won an Oscar for this movie, same with Jonah Hill for Supporting Actor. I went on YouTube and watched videos of the real Jordan Belfort and Leonardo DiCaprio portrayal was dead on!
