You must be the only person I know who did not see Goodfellas, at least 10 times lol. Wolf Of Wallstreet is great!

It's been tried before. Scot Free pictures (big production co) had the rights and were working with Don's son to base it loosely off the book but the script could never get agreed on, so it was shelved. Looks like this company picked it up and then again, sounds like the script couldn't get agreed on. I see a trend.

My view is his family has enough legal clout to keep the true story from being told.

I hoped this one was it.

Oh well.

as in, met your low expectations (let’s face it, I don’t think anyone was expecting Oscar gold)? Or like, failed to even meet your low expectations?

Travolta keeps making these sh!tty B movies he’s gonna need that piece of sh!t Tarantino to save his carrerr again!

Watched it expecting it to be highly inaccurate to performance boat people and it met that expectation in spades. The acting, the props, writing, editing, special effects and music are terrible. People are going to comment about the wrong boat, the wrong steps in the boat, etc. Its all summed up easily, this movie is a complete failure.

^^^^ agree with all that was stated it’s a POS and I have read all the books and the movie story line is all over the place. Was really looking forward to this since hearing about too. What a massive let down. It’s on demand on Direct TV if anyone want to waste 2 hours. Man the story has so much more potential.

I’m watching it right now. I knew it would suck, but underestimated just how bad it could be. I can’t even put into words what a steaming pile this movie is.

It got off to a bad start from the first boat ride. Twin 327s??? One outsrive and two exhaust pipes. Don’t mind the story. The CGI for the Bahamas run made me laugh out loud

That movie cost me $7 and 2 hours I’ll never get back.....
When does the Reggie movie come out?? At least we know that one will be shorter, except for some drawn out scene at the beginning.
