Review of Wolf of Wall Street from the Business Insider

I agree with his opening statement about males and various lines/scenes

QUAALUDES, HOOKERS, AND PENNY STOCKS: 'The Wolf Of Wall Street' Is Epic

The Wolf of Wall Street" is going to be a monstrous hit.

It is the kind of movie that will inspire (mostly) men of a certain age (I am guessing 15 to 55) to memorize scenes and forever trade their favorite lines over and over. I won't give any of them away. But this movie will enter the pantheon of Martin Scorsese classics like "Goodfellas" and "The Departed."

I was lucky enough to see a screening at the Director's Guild Theater on 57th Street on Thursday night. This is not a movie review.

Just an early heads up that this movie is epic. And will be huge.

Leonardo DiCaprio compares "The Wolf of Wall Street" to a "modern-day Caligula" in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. And he's not far off. There's gratuitous t&a. So much so that my wife Natasha asked me why there were so many orgy scenes. I didn't have a good answer. There's so much nudity and sex that I was surprised to learn that the film had EVEN MORE in an earlier version — but additional sex scenes were cut to avoid an NC-17 rating. So prepare yourself for flesh.

Then there's the drugs.

From Quaaludes to cocaine, crack and booze — the drug scenes are exquisitely staged. Drug use fuels the whole movie, especially 'ludes. DiCaprio's Jordan Belfort character (the movie is based on Belfort's memoir of the same name) seems to thrive on 'ludes — a tranquilizer that you'd be hard-pressed to find in the U.S. today. But the drugs act as a fuse for all of the Wall Street selling that Belfort oversees at his firm in the late 1980s and early '90s.

The movie is also incredibly long. I am going to guess that the cut we saw was almost 3 hours.

There's more to this movie though than sex, drugs and 165 minutes.

DiCaprio revels in his role as Belfort — a cult-like figure who inspires his sales team to unload crappy penny stocks to unwitting buyers. There's a scene at a country club that will forever be associated with the Great Actor Leo. He is so convincing that the audience last night didn't know whether to laugh. I couldn't. But many people did.

And Jonah Hill — in the role of Belfort's business partner — plays it straight, to a point, and is memorable as soon as he comes on screen. He kills it in his second, third, and fourth scenes too.

Surprisingly, it's less a movie about Wall Street and more about salesmen, posing as brokers. (And I mean men. Hundreds of them. Women are few and far between unless they're naked.) They happen to be selling penny stocks, but might as well be selling fake real estate plots. Or encyclopedias. They are selling. Period. Because people want to buy.

Scorsese focuses hard on all the big-time sins: greed, gluttony, lust, envy and pride. Add it all up and it makes it hard to look away.

Wall Street will be pleased.

A screening tweet from today; the tweeter is a member of BAFTA

Roy Edmonds ‏@RoyEdmonds 7m

Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street is hilarious; the biggest laughs and the best reaction at a screening this year

Also the guy who wrote the Business Insider review of Wolf of Wall Stree that I posted above, tweeted he failed to mention something, so he mentions it below

I think as Leo fans we probably know "whose" idea it was to include that reference

I'm only posting part of his tweet as the other part might be considered a "spoiler"

justin maiman ‏@JMAIMAN 20m

In this post http://read.bi/18e1TjY I forgot to mention: there's a brilliant #Freaks reference in #wolfofwallstreet

Very good  . Thanks, Ox.

The Wolf of Wall Street changes everything, the most wildly-entertaining film I've seen in ages. DiCaprio positively crushes it.

More tweets ; that Scorsese would love as it shows he got his message across

James Rocchi ‏@jamesrocchi 16m

WOLF OF WALL STREET is a brutal blast of high-finance hilarity that stops being a comedy once you realize we're living in it

The accountants at Red Granite and Paramount love this movie bloggers comments

Jack Giroux ‏@JackGi 1h

The Wolf of Wall Street moves like a bullet. I'd watch it again right now.

Jack Giroux ‏@JackGi 1h

It's going to be this generation's Scarface. Wall Street is a much better movie

Erin Tarantino ‏@erincandy 1h

@JackGi I'm dying to see it. Is it as incredible as the trailer leads you to believe?

Jack Giroux ‏@JackGi 1h

@erincandy Yep! Sustains that energy for all its run time.

^ Ox, there was a screening for BAFTA members, right? And there's another advanced screening in NY tonight, I wonder if Leo will attend.

Incredible first screening of Scorsese's 'The Wolf of Wall St.' @BAFTA So happy to see him on top form. High octane. Fascinating.

 

You will be pleasantly surprised

Tks for more screening tweets ; today and this weekend are the press /BAFTA screenings ; like the response so far  (Y)

 

Girl, can you read minds? I just asked about the BAFTA screening, haha. Thanks! Loving all the tweets .

Even Jeff Wells of Hollywood Elsewhere is spreading the Wolf good news

Hollywood Elsewhere ‏@wellshwood 4m

Don't kid yourself -- "The Wolf of Wall Street" is EASILY the best film of the year. A hilarious, orgiastic metaphor for 1% rot & disease

Hollywood Elsewhere ‏@wellshwood 15m

"Wolf of Wall Street" is the ultimate cinematic condensation of the Wall Street gluttony of the last 30 years. Eat shit, Gordon Gekko fans

Hollywood Elsewhere ‏@wellshwood 2m

"Wolf" stops being comedic about 40 or 50 minutes from the end. But for roughly 2 hours it's a black social satire. Foul & funny as shit

Hollywood Elsewhere ‏@wellshwood 8m

@D_Moneyy6 Leonardo DiCaprio & Jonah Hill deliver legendary performances. Bitchslap any Academy member who says they're not Oscar quality.

Hollywood Elsewhere ‏@wellshwood 14m

"Wolf" is a comic masterpiece of sloth & debauchery & excess -- it's Pure Metaphor, pure venality, pure Scorsese Satyricon. Funny as hell!

Lucky guy got to meet Leo and take pix
