Worse than I expected. Wait, Better than I thought.

Rating: 6/10 (8 August 2003)

Am I the only one who missed the transference of a Walken/DiCaprio relationship to a Hanks/DiCaprio relationship? Maybe I blinked. I know I did go to the bathroom once.
Hell, the poor bugger didn't even know his dad was dead until returning home in shackles! There are some mighty fine scenes in this movie that show the wonderful audacity (hey, it wasn't my money) of a con man. Round of applause. The rest of it just seems fake. Come to think of it, much like a con.
