Not as good as expected

Rating: 7/10 (19 January 2014)

Didn't have the charm of a typical Scorsese Movie. Leo did great but everything he does and almost the entire move feels one-dimensional. It lacks the depth that leads to deeper thinking and reflecting, which I'm sure Mr. Scorsese would love the audience to have. People all say Jonah Hill is great, but I'm not sure he can hold up such a big supporting role against Leo, with all due respect of course. I loved his small roles across the board which were all absolutely hilarious, but in this one, again, I think his role lacks depth too. All said, Matthew Mcconaughey is absolutely brilliant in his short appearance. I'm glad he and Leo both won Golden Globe, but I'm gonna have to go with him for the Oscar even though Leo is long due for sure.
