Got dragged kicjing and sceaming to this on. (The things we do for the women in our lives!)
Best description? Wall Street meets Cheech and Chong.
Ok so here are my negatives:
1) The Wall Street portion is trite at its best. What a shallow plot line!
2) There is an encyclopedia's worth of thge foulest language I have ever heard, and I have heard plenty.
3) Although there was a theater full of old geezers in the theater rolling on the floor laughing at the drug humor, fact is that drug so called humor is NOT funny, never has been, and them geezers must have been reliving their mis-spend drug infested youths.
4) Even the multitudes of naked bikini models grew old after a while. There are THAT many.
Dont waste your money. This is yet another 3 hour Hollywood extravaganza that could have used a better script and a LOT shorter length with a tighter script.
Great basic storyline but other than that I wished it went over the mechanics of his rise and fall. My opinion is it just showed the story of his over indulgences.
I read an article about Academy members screaming at Scorsese in the lobby after a screening of 'The Wolf of Wall Street". Didn't exactly make me want to run out and see it.
I loved American Hustle too, but I nearly wet my pants when I saw Wolf, today. The scene where they are tangled up in the phone cord after he has smashed his fancy car just got to me and I couldn't stop laughing. Yes, it was long, but in my opinion, it was worth it.
Movie looks pretty good to me, although I would agree 3 hours might be pushing it. I don't think you'll sell people not to see it because of "inappropriate" drug and sex humor, coupled with swearing. That is pretty common place with movies, especially ones based on outrageous true stories like this movie
