Parents Need to Know Parents need to know that The Wolf of Wall Street is based on the true story of a financial broker who bent the rules, became enormously wealthy, and was not caught for years. He lives a life of debauchery and excess, cheating on his wife, remarrying, and cheating on his new wife with an endless array of…

An amazing movie about the true to life story of how Jordan Belfort rose to fame. It accurately portrays the real life events based on the movie. However parents do need to be aware that constant sex, coarse language and drug use is prevalent throughout the duration of the three-hour film. Over 500 swear words are used, including f--k (every variation), c--t, s--t, p---y and just about every other swear word imaginable. There are also anti-LGBTQ slurs. There are a few scenes involving raw sex, including threesomes and a gay orgy taken place in Jordan's apartment. Jordan cheats on his wives Teresa and Naomi with prostitutes. In one scene at a party a man can be seen masturbating (and his penis is briefly seen). Jordan also uses cocaine and takes pills a lot throughout the movie. He can be seen flying a helicopter while under the influence of drugs. Would not recommend for anyone under the age of 18 because of the content in the movie, however it is a very accurate portrayal of how Jordan Belfort rose to fame and became consumed by greed and power.

All The Times I Felt Gross Watching The Wolf Of Wall Street

I used to hate this movie, but I saw it this month again and liked it. THIS IS NOT FOR KIDS though. It has 500+ words, and numerous sex scenes. There's orgies, adultery, and more. In fact, Leonardo DiCaprio blows cocaine off a hooker's colon. DO NOT show this to kids, but if you like Scorsese crime movies, I recommend it with caution. I gave this 4 stars and not 5 because it could of had LESS swearing and sex.

Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio) starts his thrilling new job as a Wall Street broker on Monday, Oct. 19, 1987, when one of the biggest market crashes in history occurred. After that he's forced to take a job dealing in penny stocks, trading semi-worthless stocks, but for 50 percent commissions. Teaming up with a neighbor, Donnie Azoff (Jonah Hill), he takes this idea and opens his own firm, employing high-pressure sales tactics and shady techniques to earn huge piles of cash. The money comes rolling in, and life becomes fast and exciting. Jordan also turns to alcohol, prostitutes, and drugs (especially cocaine and Quaaludes), as the company grows larger. But how long can this supercharged lifestyle last?

Director Martin Scorsese, assisted by his longtime editor Thelma Schoonmaker, keeps up an astoundingly intoxicating pace for nearly three hours. He draws on his previous movies GoodFellas and Casino for the template of THE WOLF OF WALL STREET, packing in many outrageous details behind a criminal organization over an epic running time. A huge cast, including perhaps most memorably Matthew McConaughey, helps out with small, potent performances. The difference here is that

Why Margot Robbie Regrets Sex Scene In The Wolf Of Wall Street

May be the funniest movie Scorsese has ever made. Every few minutes it hurls something so shocking and high-spirited that laughter can be the only response. Yet the movie's monstrous energy seems to be fueled by something both exciting and rotten. Leonardo DiCaprio gives a true heavyweight performance, laced with contempt, and he's never truly redeemed. Rather, Scorsese ends his movie on a scene that illustrates the pitfalls of desire, and how it can never be entirely fulfilled.

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new Diverse Representations section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
