    Can't get enough of Tom Hanks...he and Stevie (as we know, the planet's most favourite director EVER) had successfully formulated a movie into a real work of art...
    "Catch Me If You Can" utterly is a side-splitting entertainment with charms that are hard to resist...Spielberg did a daring take on Frank Abagnale Jr.'s life...he really did...but those charms are not Stevie's single-handedly...Tom Hanks with his distinctive warm persona makes the exact Carl Handratty, a lonesome and workaholic divorcee FBI...with DiCaprio the Hollywood's #1 heartthrob as Frank Abagnale, a kid who cashed millions dollar amounts in fraudulent checks and in order to run away from the FBI, pretended to be airline pilot, lawyer, doctor, even a college professor...i consider this also the best team working in Hollywood...
    Both Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks deliver 5 stars performance...they really are stars on screen!! DiCaprio's bright charisma had outdone the crybaby side of him as seen in Titanic...he really did a fantastic job...
    the storyline is terrific...i was totally amused by Hanks-DiCaprio mouse-and-cat nature throughout the movie, how Frank always escaped rapidly and how Handratty ended up punked...
    As it is been told, a supremely entertaining movie I'm strongly recommend...

    I thought this was fabulous. This guy was a genius! I rented the movie from the library, and unfortunately the VHS was old and scratchy, so it jumped for pretty much the whole movie, but it was still fun. I was incredulous! How he faked his way through some of this stuff was amazing!

    Not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. It was actually pretty interesting to see how intelligent this guy was at such a young age.

    Before watching this film, i thought they are literally chasing each other like those of lupin and zenegata. It was nice to see within a gifted criminal. A genius liar and a meticulous forger. I was surprised on how they formed a very strange bond within those years of chasing. It was an amazing film in general, though it lacks more action, considering this is a police-criminal tandem flick.

    This film got me grinning. There's a part of us that cannot help being entertained by the sight of someone getting away with something.

    When I was little I heard that my dad met the guy that this movie was based of.I`m not sure if it`s true because I heard that a looong time ago but I guess it was the truth.
