Catch Me if You Can (2002)
Should I see it?
Probably not



I know of a good number of people who really like this movie. I don't share their appreciation. I found this to be a plodding, unimpressive bore. Leonardo DiCaprio portrays Frank Abagnale Jr, a brilliant con man who has knack for impersonation. As his stunts increase he gets the attention of the FBI and Agent Carl Hanratty (Tom Hanks). Directed by Spielberg, this is the third in the line of less than stellar efforts he has put out since the turn of the century.

I watched this and was pretty disappointed. Is was too long, and Leonardo didn't look old enough to believe him in all the roles he did. In the DVD extras, they had the real Abagnale, and he said he had some gray hair at 17 and looked old for his age so he was able to pull this stuff off. Bad casting.
