Wolf of Wall Street: Great? Or Greatest?

With early reviews coming in saying it is awesome and men will be "trading their favorite lines over and over", what do you think? Will this be the next American psycho on WSO with >25% of monkey's adopting catchy slogans as their signature? Or will it simply be another movie about how awesome it is to be rich that is quickly forgotten.

Do you think this will cause an uptick in young students trying to break into finance? Maybe even some of those hipsters will realize that cranking 120+ per week and getting paid is actually cooler than taking that TFA job and saving the world.

Then again - probably not.

I heard it described as "a movie about assholes that assholes will use to justify being assholes."

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
