A film that shows the true story of Jordan Belfort in the most explicit manner possible. It’s a film containing sex, drugs and everything in between. It starts off up to eleven and does not back down at any point which is problematic. The one strong point is the acting but other than that there’s not much worth liking. The screenplay is overloaded with unnecessary swearing and the visual style crosses the border from showing a certain lifestyle to celebrating this lifestyle. Not Scorsese’s finest moment. It’s just uncomfortable over indulgent partying with a total lack of discipline.
