| Movie Description Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Frank W. Abagnale's autobiography CATCH ME IF YOU CAN follows the cat-and-mouse chase of Abagnale (Leonardo DiCaprio) and FBI agent Carl Hanratty (Tom Hanks) as Abagnale travels the world passing forged checks and assuming false identities. Covering the time period from 1963-69, the film leaps from the suburbs of New York to Georgia, Louisiana, Miami, France and the skies of Pan American airlines with Abagnale, who passes himself off as a pilot, doctor, lawyer and socialite, while constantly frustrating Hanratty's attempts to nab the increasingly cunning forger. CATCH ME IF YOU CAN finds Spielberg drawing on the father-son relationship that develops between Abagnale and Hanratty, filling a void left in the lives of each man: Abagnale's strained relationship with his tax-cheat father (Christopher Walken) and Hanratty's never-seen family left behind in the wake of a divorce. As Hanratty pursues Abagnale, their mutual admiration and respect grows, and finally they even come to rely on each other.

Top Reviews  This Is A Must See Movie!Review created: 11/10/05(updated 01/28/08) by:  22 of 33 people found this review helpful. While at first I was unsure if I would like this movie, I gave in and saw it any ways. Boy I am glad I did! Starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks. It's almost like a cat/mouse story. Tom Hanks character is trying to get a hold of Leonardo DiCaprio's character. This movie is based on a true story (which makes this movie unbelievable and even more wonderful). This is a great movie that shows you what you can do if you really put your mind to it. I have told a couple of my friends about this movie and they loved it also. A great family movie and a must see! Review ID: 10000000000057917 Was this review helpful? Report this review Catch Me If You Can (2003, DVD)4 of 5 people found this review helpful.

Report this review Reviews Very interesting movie in many waysBoth DeCaprio and Hanks did a great job. It teaches you a lot about how the financial system worked at a particular time, which was interesting to me. It's amazing to see the feats that can be accomplished if you just show confidence in yourself, and how someone can push that to the extreme. It also shows how technology has helped put an end to many of the loopholes exploited in this movie. It's definitely worth watching a few times. Review ID: 10000000007140731 Was this review helpful? Report this review Great Entertainment.For all those who grew up hearing 'crime doesn't pay' prepare to have that bubble busted. The true life story of a teenager who, exceedingly intelligent, learns how to game the system and is a consistent winner is mind boggling. Great performances from all, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks and Christopher Walken. You will not be disappointed with this gem in your movie library.

This adventurous story will have you amazed at the moxy of the star. Leonardo is terrific in this role. As usual, Tom Hanks is flawless in his role as an FBI agent. Fun movie!
