I recently wrote parts of “American Hustle” seemed like a Martin Scorsese film without the energy. “The Wolf of Wall Street” actually is a Scorsese film without the energy. This three-hour, exhausting epic is based on the true story of the rise and fall of Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio), who, after a brief period of miseducation at a “legitimate” Wall Street firm, makes a gross fortune selling penny stocks.
'Wolf of Wall Street' lacks energy
New Scorsese film is worst of his career
