| Catch Me if You Can Anyone else see it? I was kind of excited about Tom Hanks doing something other than just huge budget hollywood blockbuster (since comedy was really what he has done best), but it was a bit of a let down after all the hype attatched to it by my friends and such. Really don't have any gripes other than it just dragged on and on past the point where it should end, which really dampened the experience for me, but the storyline/script was great so it did hold enough water to keep you interested. Pretty good acting all around (even by Dicapro!!!omg!!!), but Walken was what really stood out for me (ie: the scene where he is crying at the bar was fucking heartbreaking). What do you guys think?

| .. Was a really good movie all around I found. Engaging story, interesting characters, well acted, and as said above Dicaprio was actually good in it. Didn't find it drawn out either... the story would of been incomplete without the ending 20 minutes. phat |

+7 Internets | I liked it a lot. Saw Gangs of New York the night before and now have to admit I actually like three DiCaprio movies. Anyone know how much it's actually based on the true story?

| I haven't seen the movie yet, (when I went the entire parking lot about 1,000 spaces were all full) but I saw some interviews with Frank Abnigale (the real one) and its pretty much all true. He worked closely on the film, was on the set and gave tips to DiCaprio and stuff like that. I heard they did expand on Carl Hantray (sp?) character so he would be in the movie more, but that was about it.

+1 Internets | It was good, but nothing stood out. The acting was great, but that was to be expected. I really was hoping for a kick ass movie with Hanks, Spielberg, and Dicaprio all being apart of the movie, but I got a very solid one instead. It will do, but I won't be buying it on dvd. I did like this line. "Knock, Knock." "Who's there?" "Go fuck yourself." |

+20 Internets   | ... I went in not to thrilled to see it, I wanted to see Gangs of new york but my friends convinced me into this. And I was pleasently suprised, the guy had balls of steel...and at such a young age. The acting was really great, and I think Hanks' did a good job on the accent. I definatly recommend seeing it..
