The performance by DiCaprio is full on and committed in a way that makes the film fascinating and entertaining even if at times we may be horrified at some of the things he does to others. He holds an initial fascination with the world he enters and as he is quickly drawn in we see the moral decline of his character as his life and relationships become ever more ridiculous and spiral out of control. Technically speaking, DiCaprio’s Belfort character is probably more of a sociopath than a psychopath, in that he appears to be moulded and shaped by the toxic environment he enters rather than coming in as an evil person. DiCaprio is the lead role and depicts the life of Jordan Belfort, a real life former Wall Street trader who served time for committing fraud and other offences in the United States during the 1980s and 1990s. is a fantastically over the top, but still broadly accurate depiction of a psychopath in high level Western business, particularly the financial world. The film The Wolf of Wall Street, starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
