Roger Ebert

This is not a major Spielberg film, although it is an effortlessly watchable one.

Hollywood Reporter

Catch Me If You Can represents a distinct change of pace for director Steven Spielberg. This is a lighter movie than he has made in a long while.

Collider

"Catch Me If You Can is an underrated gem in Spielberg's filmography. It has a great hook, a great cast, and a jazzy, catchy score from the great John Williams."

The New York Times

Mr. DiCaprio's portrayal of this brilliant fraud is, in a word, sensational.

AllMovie

Despite purposely fudging some fairly major aspects of Frank Abagnale Jr.'s personal history for dramatic effect...the film is nonetheless an engaging and relatively accurate account of Abagnale's life.

Common Sense Media

Every single element of this movie works brilliantly together and the result is as irresistible as its con man hero.

IMDb

Very good film has those Spielberg edges! At first I thought I was going to see a lightweight film from a great director but instead I watched another impressive achievement by Steven Spielberg.
