Sometimes Leo does his job well, and this movie is a good example. Of course, when you have one of the masters directing, everyone is going to be at their best. I really enjoyed it. Tom Hanks is superb, as always, chasing down the young con man, as he struggles from one con to the next. Everyone I know greatly enjoyed watching this movie. It takes place in the 60's and 70's and is fun to watch the sets and props of the time, especially the scene shot at TWA terminal at JFK, which is the most architectually beautiful terminal in the country. It's still there.
