The story of the movie is based on the biography of stock broker Jordan Belfort. He set up his own organization.
He quickly became involved in money laundering by using various illegal and innovative methods. His intellect led him to the pinnacle of success. In terms of earning money, he is known to everyone and is known for his loyal face.
I have seen this movie a long time ago and after watching this movie I got a feeling like the 1995 classic movie Casino directed by Martin Scorsese. Although The Wolf Of Wolf Street is not a gangster movie like Casino,
there are casino-like feeling in many ways. The similarities with casinos can be traced back to a number of other aspects, including illicit earnings, extramarital affairs, intoxication, and excessive adult scenes.
One of the best performances of Leonardo DiCaprio's career can be seen in this movie. His various gestures have not only enhanced his acting level in the movie but also provided multiple templates through current social media.
His playboy lifestyle, greed for money and trying to earn a living create a different kind of character.
The friendship between Leo and Jonah Hill can be seen. Jonah is surprised to see Leo's life in the beginning. And the desire for quick money takes place in him too.
Leo and Jonah are seen in the movie most of the time, but there are many more, including Margot Robbie and Matthew McConaughey.
Unlike many cult classic movies by Martin Scorsese, there is no presence of violence here. Like many of his movies, adult scenes can be found here. Scorsese has shown this story from Jordan's point of view as well as from a legal point of view.
Even after earning money in an illegal way, when he mentions in detail about his money income, there is no difference between good and bad in his character. And this aspect has been able to present the character in a stronger way.
Jordan considers these ways of earning money to be his own success. The movie manages to evade money or the eyes of the law, as well as the ups and downs of Jordan's personal life.
