Awesome in Wolf of wall street.
Jonah Hill was great in the movie , his best performance so far. Movies like this is what he is best suited for where he both can show his comedy and drama-skills.

This is how I felt too. Ironically, especially after seeing him on SNL right after seeing him in WoWS, it made me think comedy is not really his calling so much as he ended up in it because that's where chubby actors can get their foot in the door. Now he's pulling away from the Apatow pack and just impressing the hell out of me these days. I don't follow his career closely (interviews etc.) but he was on Graham Norton not long ago and was very charming and fun to watch. When I think back to how repellent I found him in SuperBad, I am all the more amazed at how I see him now.
The Apatow universe is fine for what it is, but I'm glad he is no longer stuck in it.
