A near miss at being greatness

Rating: 8/10 (18 January 2014)

Undoubtedly one of the best films of the year, there's only so much you can do with a movie based on a stock market while trying to keep it interesting and with that in mind, it delivered quite well.
When comparing this movie to other great movies it may fall a bit short, but it's right up there with the best of em.
The film could of been cut and made a bit shorter as it tended to drag out a bit near the end, but the acting scenes were so great that you really wouldn't of wanted to do that.
The acting between Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill were top notch and the overall plot of the movie worked great with the scenes playing out well, not much more one can say, it set out to do a job and it accomplished it very well. Probably not a movie for everyone due to the fact that most people wouldn't find a movie about a stock market interesting but it should still appeal to the strict action sci-fi lovers out there.
