DVD Reviews of Catch Me If You Can (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition)

DVD Review: An enjoyable happy movie
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great movie to watch for several reasons. First, it's an upbeat story of how an FBI agent helps a young man turn his life around from a life of crime to becoming a productive member of society. Second, the musical sound track is one of John Williams' best -- the movie is worth watching just for the sound track alone. Third, the performances of the cast are excellent: Leonardo DiCaprio as Frank Abagnale, the young man, Tom Hanks as the FBI agent, Christopher Walken and Nathalie Baye as Frank's parents, Amy Adams as Frank's fiance, Martin Sheen as Amy's character's father, and even Frank Abagnale himself, in a brief cameo as the French policeman in charge of arresting Frank when Frank is finally caught. Finally, the production design and cinematography are excellent. This is a movie that you can watch repeatedly and enjoy every time.

DVD Review: Real life is better than fiction
Summary: 5 Stars

This film was recommended to me. I was not disappointed. It is incredible to think that there are real people out there that are this clever (a bit scary too). The most amazing thing was to find that his life of crime was so exceptional, that he was able to use his knowledge for good later. An amazing true story and a "must see".

DVD Review: Cath Me If You Can
Summary: 1 Stars

This movie had some bad language & some dirty scenes & I threw it in the trash.

DVD Review: Great, but.....
Summary: 4 Stars

This movie is good in many ways because it is true to an actual event that fooled many people. Much time was spent to reconstruct the time elements of the movie to make it seem realistic. But...because of the sexual scene, I wouldn't want to show it to my grandkids. Too bad Hollywood seems bend on including such things in otherwise good family movies. All unnecessary.

DVD Review: Pretty Interesting Look At An Impersonator
Summary: 4 Stars

This is kind of an odd story, another one of those based-on-a-true life tales. This was hyped up a little too much when it came out so I expected more than what the film delivered. However, it was still a decent yarn about a kid who impersonated people in different professions and forged checks along the way. He did all of this in his teenage years.

Leonardo DiCaprio plays his normal cocky role while Tom Hanks is the straight- and-narrow looking FBI man on his trail. Although not a tense thriller, the movie holds the viewer's interest throughout the 2 hours and 20 minutes with the last half hour being the most interesting, capped off by a satisfying ending.

The only thing I didn't enjoy watching was DiCaprio (as "Frank Abagnale") taking advantage of genuinely-nice girls. This guy was no hero, believe me.

Description of Catch Me If You Can (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition)

Story of Frank Abagnale Jr., a young con artists who passes himself off as a pilot, doctor, lawyer, and cashes in millions of dollars of fraudulent checks, with the FBI hot on his trail.
Genre: Feature Film-Comedy
Rating: PG13
Release Date: 10-APR-2007
Media Type: DVD
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
