Learn why stimulants are 'needed' to feed greed

Rating: 7/10 (22 January 2014)

Whilst not a film for everyone, this production really does deliver a punch. DiCaprio is absolutely compellingly right for this role - really gives him opportunity to show his range and ability. Who knew that you could fall down a short flight of steps in so many ways! Full marks to the screenplay/writing. Everything has a natural flow and feels right for the period. Supporting actors are well chosen and are worth following throughout....hidden 'back stories can be detected' via these characters - quite a feat given how 'busy' the main story is. Saying that, however, you will occasionally check your watch....how much more of this do we have to watch.....well, that gives the other side of the Wall Street/Investments story. To con their marks the whole lot of these people resort to stimulants, uppers, downers, anaesthetisers and all manner of other anti-social kicks. Reality seems a long way from where these people go. And so it was.
