| Editorial Reviews:
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

RSF (Indiana)
i saw this movie a couple of years ago, and decided i needed to see it again. the store i bought it from sent it out right away and it was packaged well. i prepared to watch the movie when i got it by preparing and eating dinner first. i ate a nice soup with some bread and butter. to drink i had either a diet pepsi or some water. after dinner i watched the movie. it was just as good as it was the first time i saw it, years ago. tom hanks is good. and leo was good also. i recommend this movie. i read the book after i watched this and the book was good too.

2nd Time Around! February 5, 2010
Wunder One (Silicon Valley)
I just watched this movie for the second time. It reminded me of why I liked it so much the first time. I'm stingy about giving 5 stars, but this is just the best! Interesting and fun. The Frank and Carl relationship is managed with a deft hand and it works great.
Exceptional Movie January 23, 2010

I loved this movie it had a lots of twist and Leonardo was a very intelligent con-man outsmarting even the FBI!
The Extras and Book are Better October 26, 2009
TSabonis (Sioux City, IA, USA)
This movie deserves a three, but the DVD extras are so good, it gets a four. I read the book that this is based on, and that may have been my problem. I was expecting too much. I am not a fan of Leo, but I do quite enjoy Chris Walken, I think he is great in this role. However the movie tends to be a slow plodding homage to the era when the events take place. The story of how a 18 year old kid turned into the one of the greatest non violent con men in American history seems to take a backseat to Steven Spielberg's infatuation with the era. What is missing is the breezy carefree attitude that Mr. Abagnale expressed so easily in the book. The film tries to hard to be moralistic. I guess I was just expecting more when such a talented group of film makers and actors too on a great book like this.
About the DVD: I got this DVD for my birthday and watched disc one almost immediately, and was left disappointed, it took a few months for me to dig this out and take a look at disc two. It is loaded and is imminently more interesting than the film. There are 5 vignettes on the supplemental disc that are all worth your time. Especially the retrospective on the real Frank Abagnale. I found myself engrossed in the features and actually started to like the movie more by what I saw on disc two. I would suggest this as just a rental
