It's pure madness, and it gets better every second

Rating: 9/10 (17 January 2014)

To be honest, I never thought that this movie was based on a real life story... The true obsession with money, the life style involved with it, the messed up state of mind... I mean there was no dull moment... To create an organism full of insanity and then give life to it... Well that's my take on the movie and believe that is the way of Scorsese...
DiCaprio seemed at his best throughout the movie... The not so perfect conman, with his ego and drug issues...So he has a vision and goes on to fulfill it and does whatever it takes to do so... But the dark side is portrayed so beautifully as could have been done only by Scorsese...I think DiCaprio has a Oscar in his bag this year... Also the pick of the actors for me was Jonah Hill who played Donnie Azoff, co-founder of the con but wilder than DiCaprio... He seemed like a complete madman with drugs and the way he lived it... The movie has so many layers to offer and there are no dull moments...
All I can say is that this movie is full of sex, drugs, money, power, madness, success and more success, more than you can handle and how these people handle it... So if you would like to lose yourself for 3 hours... Just go for it and I bet that you won't regret a single moment or "Penny" you spent on it...
