In 1987, Jordan Belfort takes an entry-level job at a Wall Street brokerage firm. By the early 1990s, while still in his 20s, Belfort founds his own firm, Stratton Oakmont. Together with his trusted lieutenant and a merry band of brokers, Belfort makes a huge fortune by defrauding wealthy investors out of millions. However, while Belfort and his cronies partake in a hedonistic brew of sex, drugs and thrills, the SEC and the FBI close in on his empire of excess.

Critics Consensus

Funny, self-referential, and irreverent to a fault, The Wolf of Wall Street finds Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio at their most infectiously dynamic.

... A sprawling riot of bad taste and consumption — and tremendously entertaining if you’re in the right mood.

4/5

The film has roused censure for glorifying crime, with scant, awkwardly realised minutes paid to Belfort's eventual comeuppance. But surely 71-year-old Scorsese, a one-time wannabe priest whose work is preoccupied with morality, did that deliberately?

Scorsese is fascinated by procedure, by drawing back the curtain and showing us how things happen, though he keeps the picture nimble and entertaining enough to avoid burying himself in the minutiae.

4/4

Scorsese depicts an intriguing and marvelously loathsome human beast in its natural setting, where the verdict on its judgment lies in the hands of its audience.

4/5

"The Wolf of Wall Street" doesn't want to be lovable. It just wants to remind you how excessive wealth can get and catch you being entertained by it. You can't target excessiveness to hate without being excessive in its depiction.

Well-made movie about some of the most disgusting people who ever existed. I want to give it 1 star but it wouldn't be fair.

I gave up long before the end. Another Scorsese love letter to horrible people, but in this case they're all so exhausting, boring, and shallow, it's just a darned ordeal to sit through even half an hour. And the movie is way longer than that! Everybody in this movie is gung-ho and gross, enough to make you want to vomit. If you can manage more than half an hour give yourself a pat on the back, but if you stay to the end consider therapy.

This is most certainly a greedy man who has been trying to sell his own life to a corporate elite

I love the humor in it. I know it might seem cliche but the scene with the pen is my favorite.
