8 on a scale of 10

Rating: 8/10 (24 June 2003)

Not a classic, but interesting. I have to say I have never seen a movie based on a real life person whose entire life was a con. So, it was original, and therefore, a worthwhile 2 hours of my time.
I thought DiCaprio and Hanks were both good. Hanks is ALWAYS good. The only downside was the lack of interaction between them. Of course, there likely was little, if any, interaction between them in real life, but all movies based on a good guy and a bad guy are enhanced by the "relationship" between them.
Otherwise, no complaints, just simple entertainment.
