Catch Me If You Can

Catch Me If You Can (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition)
5 stars
This is a film that aims for mass appeal. Thankfully, it does not disappoint. I loved the cast. Leonardo Dicaprio is brilliant as the lead, playing an impish con man with suave cool. Tom Hanks is delightful as his FBI foil. Christopher Walken brings loads of heart in a supporting role, playing Dicaprio's father. There are many strong turns from supporting actors, too. The story never lags and as a viewer I was swept up in the chase. This is the rare blockbuster film that actually achieves lofty aims.
