Wolf Of Wall St. Review *No Spoilers*

Hey guys, I recently watched Wolf of Wall St. Coming from Scorsese, I went in expecting greatness. This film did not disappoint. The movie was casted to perfection. Leo was amazing as greedy stock broker, Jordan Belfort, and Jonah Hill had me laughing out of control for the majority of the film. This film was phenomenal, however, I would not suggest watching this with your family. The drug use is so excessive, I could not help but wonder when one of the characters would overdose. Also, there are many graphic sex scenes and the film holds the record for most F words in a non documentary film. In my eyes, this is an instant classic. Easily my favorite movie of 2013, and perhaps one of my favorite comedies of all time. The film is srikingly similar to Goodfellas, so if you love that movie or just love movies, you are going to love this film. I gave this film a 9.5/10.
