No matter who you find yourself rooting for, this is fun ride

Rating: 8/10 (4 January 2003)

Fun. That's the best way to describe this story of Frank Abagnale Jr. (Leonardo DiCaprio), if that is his name. Steven Spielberg brings us a second good movie this year (Minority Report being the other). Based on a true story, this movie takes us on a non-stop journey of a teenage who is conning his way around the world posing as a pilot, doctor, and lawyer. This goes on for years, as he is able to stay just ahead of FBI agent, Carl Hanratty (Tom Hanks). Christopher Walken also turns in a good performance as Frank Abagnale Sr. All of the supporting cast performed also performed well. No matter who you find yourself rooting for, this is fun ride.
