Jeremy Urquhart is a writer at Collider who focuses on the Godzilla series, the films of Martin Scorsese, and anything in the action genre.
The Wolf of Wall Street is one of those movies that ends up being a bit of everything, spreading itself generously over multiple genres and having an epic runtime that reaches three hours in total. It’s a biographical movie of sorts, centered on Jordan Belfort and based on his memoir of the same name, and it details how he used fraudulent means to become remarkably wealthy through activities on Wall Street in the 1980s and 1990s.
9 "Fugayzi, fugazi. It's a whazy. It's a woozie. It's fairy dust. It doesn't exist. It's never landed. It is no matter. It's not on the elemental chart. It's not f**king real." Mark Hanna As something of a rise-and-fall movie, The Wolf of Wall Street begins with Jordan Belfort relatively low-key, all things considered, and maybe even mild-mannered . Things change when he’s employed at L.F.
7 "Who? What are you, a f**king owl? Who is she?" Naomi Lapaglia Owing to the world depicted in The Wolf of Wall Street, men are in the foreground - and get most of the dialogue - while female characters sometimes get relegated to the background. It speaks to the attitudes that the main characters tend to hold, though, and it’s hard to feel like the movie necessarily celebrates such views.
5 "Let me tell you something. There's no nobility in poverty. I have been a rich man and I have been a poor man. And I choose rich every f**king time." Jordan Belfort Martin Scorsese’s body of work from the 2010s is defined by its variety and complexity, with the latter being found in the way that, just as in decades past, he’s explored moral issues with nuance.
