A must see film

Rating: 8/10 (6 March 2014)

One of the funniest films i've seen in a while.
This movie is based on the memoirs of crooked broker Jordan Belfort who during the 1980s and 90s enjoyed unlimited amounts of sports cars, drugs and prostitutes, paid for by millions of dupes and dopes buying his fraudulently inflated stocks. Finally, like Henry Hill before him, Belfort has to swallow hard and confront the possibility of betraying his partners to minimize the inevitable jail term.
DiCaprio's performance in this film is not what we're used to seeing. Unlike his usual mind f@$k movies such as The Departed, Shutter Island and Inception, Leo's comedic versatility shows in this film and teaming up with Jonah Hill was a masterstroke.
Special mention to Australian actress Margot Robbie whose breakout role as Naoami Lapaglia (Belfort's second wife) delivered a wonderful performance and nailed the Brooklyn accent.
