Advantages: interesting story Disadvantages: a bit long
I think it's safe to say that 'Catch me ifyoucan' is not the typical sort of movie I watch. Ifit's not a girly chick flick, comedy or kids film, I'm usually not interested, but after being assured that this film contained no violence or gore, I agreed on watching the DVD!
~The Plot~
It's the mid sixties and Frank Abagnale Jnr is barely sixteen years old when his life is turned upside down. He and his parents have recently been forced to move from their luxury house to a cramped apartment after his father failed to pay his taxes, and as if that wasn't bad enough, he then he walks in on his mother in bed with another man.

Advantages: An excellent read Disadvantages: Hard to put down, so nothing else gets done!!
This is another Jill Mansell classic. The cover is white with a window at the top with a girl sitting at it in a blue dress. There is also a window at the bottom of the page with a dog at it. Jill Mansell is written across the page in pink, and 'The one youreallywant' is written underneath in blue.

Advantages: Entertaining if you can disengage your brain Disadvantages: Feels rushed and far too implausible

But hot on his trail is FBI agent Carl Hanratty (Tom Hanks) who is determined to bring the young con man in.
● Opinion
Quite often when you read the blurb on the back of a DVD case, that despite what sounds like an intriguing plot as well a star studded cast and an exceptionally talented director the film is going to disappoint. Such is the case of "Catch Me ifYouCan" a film inspired by a true story of cat and mouse between a young con man and an FBI agent. Whilst disappointing the film is not terrible, it just has a few too many flaws ...
