Catch Me If You Can

Rating: 9/10 (20 March 2020)

Catch Me If You Can, based on the true story of Frank William Abangale, directed and produced by Steven Spielberg, was one of the craziest, yet super enjoyable movies I've ever seen.
Catch Me If You Can was a very intelligent movie. Jeff Nathanson wrote out this brilliantly, sly script, with great writing for these A-list actors. There were a couple of scenes that seemed really armored, and cheesy, but the majority of the scenes were very clever, and really entertaining. From the first act, all the way up until the very end of the third act, was very powerful and beguiling. Come the last 20 minutes or so, it seemed a little dragged out, and could've been summarized faster.
This bunch of well respected actors put on phenomenal performances. Frank W. Abagnale Jr, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, had such a deep motive, due to his childhood troubles. Leo put on such a mature, and witty performance, that it made the audience care and worry for him. Frank W. Abangnale Sr, played by Christopher Walken, had a very important role in the film, just being a supportive character. Because to his troubles, it causes Jr to make the decisions he makes. Tom Hanks is the other star of the film, on the side of Di'Caprio. He did a fantastic job in his role, and created a unique bond between him and Leo.
The score by, perhaps the GOAT, John Williams, had a deep, mysterious, suspenseful score, that complimented the each scene.
Overall, this will go down as one of my favorite Di'Caprio & Hanks films.
