Catch Me If You Can (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Features) description
An enormously entertaining (if somewhat shallow) affair from blockbuster director Steven Spielberg. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Frank Abagnale, Jr., a dazzling young con man who spent four years impersonating an airline pilot, a doctor, and a lawyer--all before he turned 21. All the while he's pursued by a dedicated FBI agent named Carl Hanratty (Tom Hanks), whose dogged determination stays one step behind Abagnale's spontaneous wits. Both DiCaprio and Hanks turn in enjoyable performances and the movie has a bouncy rhythm that keeps it zipping along. However, it never gets under the surface of Frank's drive to lose himself in other identities, other than a simplistic desire to please his father (Christopher Walken, excellent as always), nor does it explore the complex mechanics of fraud with any depth. By the movie's end, it feels like one of Frank's pilot uniforms--appearance without substance. --Bret Fetzer

♥♥♥♥ CATCH ME IN THE CAN
DiCaprio and Hanks combine with Spielberg to produce an amusing,true story of a young rebel (Leo) outfoxing Hanks' special FBI unit on counterfeiting for years. Leo is at his acting best, following in the footsteps of his "loose" mother and his rip-off specialist father.He uses his keen intellect to assume top quality jobs in the airlines, as a doctor, and finally a lawyer,cashing millions of dollars of bogus checks along his route. The picture frolics along for about an hour until, suddenly, it seemingly goes flat, even boring. And it's Hanks, working with the alacrity of Barnaby Jones and the acumen of Inspector Clousseau that's to blame. No recording devices, 3 agents at the party, no effective police backups, a literal crawl up the stairs at the party, a complete lack of aggressiveness, the ridiculous escape from Miami, all seem to point to a deliberate lengthening of the film. Add a really ludicrous semi-climax where Leo is set free, again garbed in a pilot's uniform, and the film loses all credibility. Summing up, the plot was there for a great movie;instead this reviewer saw a fair/good one.
