I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Tom Hanks and Leonardo Di Caprio unite in this Steven Spielberg crime caper from 2002. Leo plays Frank Abagnale Jr. who happens to be a con artist of the finest order despite being only 19. He is pursued diligently by FBI agent Carl Hanratty played by Hanks. This is a great casual film to watch and appreciate. Apart from the aforementioned actors we also have minor characters played by the then new Amy Adams, Martin Sheen and Christopher Walken and all come together to create a near perfect feature film. Speilberg should be commended for taking on such a light fare and making something so interesting out of it.

A rare example of an attempted Spielberg melancholia and it is the most delicate, the most elegant one. Imbued in the spirit of the typical spielbergian disintegration of the family, this one drives on with exquisite taste and grande finesse to a condition (again typical in the director) of familial reinstatement, only this time of a completely different, disillusioned type. A great, unexpected Christmas film, too.
