DO NOT GET MAD I AM NOT TRYING TO BE SNARKY i just want to explain how i feel about these Scorcese films.
You are right this did feel like a real movie and it was based on a true story. It was Belfort's story but it was not about Wall Street. Do you feel me? I feel the same way about most of these mob films Scorcese does. Yeah there are a few true things thrown in , he gets great actors in the roles, it is entertaining but overall it is bullshit.
The Godfather 1 and 2 imo the best and most accurate story about the mob.
This Scorcese stuff is largely style over substance.
How come Marty ain't made no film about Meyer Lansky? See i know what this Scorcese shit is really about.
Btw The Aviator was a whole bunch of misdirection. They did not tell you nothing about Hughes in that film.
If you like his work fine i ain't mad but Marty is a bullshitter.
