what were ST's thoughts on Wolf of Wall Street?

Posted by groiny (aka groiny) Apr 11 '16, 08:59

I watched it for the first time this weekend, and I hated it. Margot Robbie naked notwithstanding.

Responses:

I expect I'd hate it -- nm - ML Apr 11, 09:23
Didn't bother. -- nm - Shaun Apr 11, 09:06
i thought it was great -- nm - CQ Apr 11, 09:03 1
- yup, I enjoyed it -- nm - Beaker Apr 11, 09:04
I have never seen it. I have skipped all Margot Robbie movies so when I see her as Harley, I will only see her as Harley. -- nm - Spawn Apr 11, 09:03 2
- she was pretty damn good in it though, and fully nekked. -- nm - groiny Apr 11, 09:04 1
  - Oh, I will go back and watch a couple of her movies. Just want Harley to be my first. -- nm - Spawn Apr 11, 09:05
not quite Goodfellas good but pretty good Scorsese -- nm - the brain Apr 11, 09:02 2
- Actually, that's probably my one criticism (spoilers) - Roger More Apr 11, 09:04 1
  - I thought the same thing. - groiny Apr 11, 09:05
I can understand why some people didn't like it, but I think it worked artistically. - Roger More Apr 11, 09:02
I thought it was alright, hated the characters, but the movie was entirely too long. (spoils) - Will Hunting Apr 11, 09:02 2
- Yeah, spending that much time with those characters was... unpleasant. -- nm - Dark Callisto Apr 11, 09:05 1
  - that is a great way to put it. -- nm - groiny Apr 11, 09:06
It's about two hours too long. -- nm - Cadbarony Creme Egg Apr 11, 09:01
I liked it. -- nm - Epiphany Apr 11, 09:00 18
- characters were just way too douchey for my liking. -- nm - groiny Apr 11, 09:01 17
  - That's kind of the point of the movie. -- nm - znufrii Apr 11, 09:15 11
    - right, i liked the movie. i *hated* most of the characters. -- nm - Andie Apr 11, 09:26
    - I get that, completely, but still. - groiny Apr 11, 09:16 9
      - I can see why that wouldn't be to everyone's taste, sure - znufrii Apr 11, 09:25 3
        
        I honestly did not know what to expect. I only watched it because of Margot. - groiny Apr 11, 09:27 2 1
        
        Ah. -- nm - znufrii Apr 11, 09:32 1
        
        it might be different if I watch it again, knowing that they are supposed to be assholes. -- nm - groiny Apr 11, 09:35
      - Yeah, especially since they did such a great job of getting them to hate-status within minutes - Will Hunting Apr 11, 09:18 4
        
        and usually, you throw one likeable person in there just to offset it. -- nm - groiny Apr 11, 09:20 3
        
        I think that's why they put in Margot Robbie's nudity. - Will Hunting Apr 11, 09:24 2
        
        or, everyone's nudity for that matter. - groiny Apr 11, 09:25 1
        
        Does Leo get f-ed by a bear? -- nm - Spawn Apr 11, 09:37
  - that's the way some of those jackasses are. I thought they nailed it -- nm - CQ Apr 11, 09:04
  - That part, I just accepted becuase they were supposed to be vile to us normals. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 11, 09:03 3
    - yeah, I get that, but there has to be SOMEBODY to root for..... - groiny Apr 11, 09:04
    - this -- nm - Epiphany Apr 11, 09:03
    - nods -- nm - budice Apr 11, 09:03
