I got bored. It's the same scene over and over. In fact, it made me burn out on Jonah Hill. What an obnoxious character!

pip pip cheerio you slags!
An immovable object and an unstoppable force...
You're literally the first person I know of to not like the movie.
This movie is in my all time top 10.
Dicaprio's performance was outstanding.
Very fun movie, bit too long though.
The VFX reel is amazing, so much cgi: https://vimeo.com/83523133

Awesome movie, mcconaughey was only in it for 5-6 min but goddamn his character was so well acted his humming song is still ringing in my head.

DiCaprio's best? Nah, that belongs to The Departed. Still a good one though, watched it at least 4 or 5 times.

Might be not only Leo's best film, but Scorsese's as well. I prefer it to Goodfellas ( which is another all-time classic).

Really fun movie to watch. I need to watch it again.
Everything wrong about The Wolf of Wall Street in one post.
Only thing that could have added to the wrong is if you had said Margot Robbie looked bad.

It's the same damn movie archetype as Casino and Scarface.
Nice guy gets wealth, destroys himself, loses everything.
Move on, Scorcese. You're better than this.

This is the movie Leo should have won for.
The lude scene cinched it.

I thought it was Scorcese's Wolf of Wallstreet.
Agree on Jonah Hill. His improv scenes were some of the worst scenes in the movie.

Leo's best performance, should have won over McChogoney, who should have won an Emmy over Bryan Cranston that year...all sorts of fucked up.

I saw it as Scorcese doing a spoof of his own style.
I never thought a comedy could be both brilliant and gut wrenchingly hilarious before... This thing is a masterpiece!

I prefer the Departed but they are both top notch. Classic Leo.
Don't be afraid of posting your own opinion, even if it might differ from the majority here.

Jonah HIll is the only weak part for me. He comes across way too over the top, like a bad SNL character.
I actually like to think of this film being the final part in an unofficial trilogy by Scorsese about 'the life'.
It's very similar to Goodfellas and Casino, which show off life inside organized crime and the casino business, and the life inside Wall Street was a great way to show off the more scummier sides of the pursuit of success in America.
That's what I think, anyway. Good movie, easily one of Leo's best.
Yep.
I liked the movie and I didn't think it was Oscar material but Leo definitely did a lot better there than The Revenant.

that's always going to be catch me if you can or gangs of new york to me. Though in gangs he really gets overshadowed, in most of his movie he gets overshadowed imo.
Didn't particulärly like wolf of wall street.

Count me in the camp that thinks this is Leo's best performance.

I wouldn't classify it as high art but I found it really entertaining.
