We've shown off plenty of visual effects breakdowns for big blockbuster films like Marvel's Thor: The Dark World and Iron Man 3, Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim and The Great Gatsby. But some films have visual effects that you aren't even remotely aware of, because they are seamless and don't feature any full compter generated creatures or anything like that. One such case is The Wolf of Wall Street. With the exception of one crazy encounter Jordan Belfort's yacht has with a huge storm at sea, you would think few visual effects were needed in Martin Scorsese's film. But you'd be wrong. Watch the cool VFX breakdown below!

The surprising VFX breakdown for Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street from Brainstorm Digital:

The Wolf of Wall Street is directed by legendary Academy Award winning filmmaker Martin Scorsese, of everything from Taxi Driver to Raging Bull to Cape Fear to Goodfellas to Casino to Aviator to Departed to Shutter Island and Hugo recently. The screenplay is written by Terence Winter (Get Rich or Die Tryin', Brooklyn Rules, "The Sopranos", "Boardwalk Empire"), based on Jordan Belfort's book of the same name. The film also stars Jonah Hill, Matthew McConaughey, Margot Robbie, Jon Favreau, Kyle Chandler, Shea Whigham & Jean Dujardin. Paramount opened The Wolf of Wall Street on Christmas Day. Go see it now!
