Me and my girl just back from the theatre and we saw Steven Spielberg's new masterpiece "Catch Me If You Can." I have to say that this is Leo DiCaprio's best film to date...One of Spielberg's best also. Tom Hanks also ruled, but his accent sucked balls. You could see him slip up many times. The movie was kinda long, but the pace was set perfectly so you barely notice... The story is about a teenager who's parents split up and are in trouble by the IRS for tax invasion. He runs away and becomes a master of disguise, including a co-pilot, doctor, and lawyer. Tom Hanks plays the FBI cop trying to bring him down. A great flick...check it out...One of the best in 2003...
 
This falls way back on Spielbergs list of great films, ET, Raiders, Close Encounters,Jaws, Color Purple,all leaps and bounds better, I liked AI and Minority Report better than this one also. As far as Leo goes Gangs is better and Whats Eating Gilbert Grape way better. It did seem kind of slow over all I give it a 6.5 out of 10.

The new Nicholson flick looks good.
Are you talking about About Schmidt?
I want to see it just because it's getting good reviews.
I saw watched the trailer from www.apple.com (if you have Quicktime, go there and check out all the Movie Trailers) and it didn't look that great, but I still want to see it.
