Without those restricted shots, is it still a drunken fan of Wall Street?

The three-hour movie didn't feel like a long time. I was ready to go to the toilet at any time and chose a seat close to the aisle. In the constant laughter of the audience, the urge to urinate did not come as promised. The various restricted-level shots that have appeared constantly at the beginning, I don’t know if they will be cut and cut again when they are released in China. The film focuses on the life of Wall Street paper fans. Without these sensual shots, I don’t know if there is that. A taste of American life in the 1980s.


In addition to the vulgar comedy-like constant funny, the unobstructed conferences in the office, the crazy celebrations without a bottom line, and those buried under the money and joy, there are also eternal topics of human nature. Money will change a person's life style, behavior pattern, change a person's personality and so on. Perhaps the only thing that has not changed is the pursuit of wealth.


I haven't watched the autobiographical "The Wolf of Wall Street" written by Belfort, but from the scenes shown in the film, the madness is slightly exaggerated. But perhaps the stimulating experience of wealth and beauty in the film is just a microcosm of the real world. Just as there are always more greedy people in greed, well-dressed human faces and animal hearts are not uncommon. Leonardo's hard performance should at least win him an Oscar nomination for best actor. However, the film was broadcast in time for Christmas, and many film critics rushed to the meeting to enjoy the three-hour long film. I wonder if it will slightly affect the results of its 2013 Top 10 popular film selection. In any case, Leonardo's wonderful performance throughout the whole process is also one of the highlights of the film not to be missed. Compared with the performance in The Great Gatsby, which was released in May this year, Leonardo has created another luxurious lifestyle of spending money, but behind this crazy life is endless emptiness, so that he often uses drugs. As a companion, we can obtain the beautiful but short-lived illusion like fireworks.


Nowadays, with the popularization of the Internet, too many previously mysterious industries are no longer reachable by only a small group of talents. Maybe you don’t need a stock broker, you can also buy stocks yourself. Of course, the various messy information on the Internet may be confusing, and the public will still be more or less led by predators, as long as The desire for money in people's hearts is still there, and the greed for wealth will continue to grow, and then they will still be deceived by various names and types of methods, and plunge into it.


In the just-drawing issue, the second highest prize in US history, the first prize of US$636 million Mega Millions, created two billionaires, and there is just one lucky winner in a Chinese-gathering area in Silicon Valley (but it is said that the winner is not of Chinese descent) , And every time when the jackpot is getting higher and higher, it is often very easy to break through the historical record, which shows how powerful the "lucky one may be me" power. In the last scene of The Wolf of Wall Street, the faces eager for how to quickly acquire wealth and become a rich man, aren't they also pictures that will never be missing wherever they go?

I don’t know if China, with its rapid economic development, is very similar to the United States at the time. Money is always supreme. As long as you can lead everyone to make money and become wealthy, you are the winner. Even if sometimes their methods are often not very bright, people may Will still follow with admiring eyes, and also look forward to one day I can have enough wealth to change my destiny.


That kind of tempting life can be obtained only by betraying a little conscience. How many people can withstand the advocacy and temptation of people like the Wolf of Wall Street?

    If there is a glimmer of expectation for Lao Ma, it is to expect that Lao Ma will never make movies in the future.

    This biopic turned out to be a maddening comedy, not like shit, but a noble erosion like a drama, the director turned out to be an old horse! Most of the time before the film is the corrupt life of this group of people. From the first entry on Wall Street to the final imprisonment, how the desires expand step by step, how the human nature degenerates little by little, in the face of huge wealth women and power, you should never expect this The group of people will really learn something from the lesson. ★★★★
