What to Know

Critics Consensus

Funny, self-referential, and irreverent to a fault, The Wolf of Wall Street finds Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio at their most infectiously dynamic.

Wendy Ide Times (UK) ... A sprawling riot of bad taste and consumption — and tremendously entertaining if you’re in the right mood. Nov 23, 2022 Full Review Larushka Ivan-Zadeh metro.co.uk The film has roused censure for glorifying crime, with scant, awkwardly realised minutes paid to Belfort's eventual comeuppance. But surely 71-year-old Scorsese, a one-time wannabe priest whose work is preoccupied with morality, did that deliberately? Rated: 4/5 Sep 6, 2017 Full Review Jason Bailey Flavorwire Scorsese is fascinated by procedure, by drawing back the curtain and showing us how things happen, though he keeps the picture nimble and entertaining enough to avoid burying himself in the minutiae. Jun 18, 2016 Full Review Noah Gittell Washington City Paper It continues to provoke and entertain... Oct 12, 2023 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Scorsese depicts an intriguing and marvelously loathsome human beast in its natural setting, where the verdict on its judgment lies in the hands of its audience. Rated: 4/4 Aug 19, 2022 Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson "The Wolf of Wall Street" doesn't want to be lovable. It just wants to remind you how excessive wealth can get and catch you being entertained by it. You can't target excessiveness to hate without being excessive in its depiction. Rated: 4/5 Jun 26, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

carmen M If you like money, you like this movie, oh my God DiCaprio got a love them in this movie so good Menahan also so good Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/03/25 Full Review Audience Member One of the goat movies... (no bush!) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/05/25 Full Review Paul S Never have I watched a movie where I hated almost every single character. The rollercoaster of emotions this movie put me through makes me firmly believe that it is one of the greatest movies of all time. It was funny and intriguing from start to finish, and every performance by the cast was absolutely spectacular. I definitely recommend this for drama and comedy fans! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/02/25 Full Review B R 3 hours of cash, drugs, whores, parties, power, and absolute chaos! This movie is AMAZING!!!! Couldn’t have been any better. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/01/25 Full Review Petro B Perfect for a movie night with friends or family. You get soaked up in the storyline of Jordan Belfort and the world created by Scorsese. The movie is so damn funny and entertaining. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/25/25 Full Review Jess S This is a fun watch, would never tell someone not to watch it but if you're looking for a more creative, original and 'artsy' movie this isn't for you. The story's plot of sheer greed, ambition and overconsumption end in a really entertaining watch with lots of fun moments. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/20/25 Full Review Read all reviews
