The 17 Best Leonardo DiCaprio Movies of All Time
In this “true story,” Abagnale is vigorously pursued across the globe by FBI agent Carl Hanratty (Hanks), who himself is based on rea lfe FBI agent Joseph Shea. This film is both exciting and somewhat hilarious as Abagnale continues to illude Hanratty and the FBI before he figures out just what it is he wants out of his life. To sweeten the pot, Abagnale’s father, Frank Sr., is played by Christopher Walken (The Prophecy), who is always a delight.
Catch Me If You Can is an excellent period drama with high stakes and lots of excitement that will keep you on your toes.

9. Romeo + Juliet (1996)
This uber-stylized and contemporary adaptation of one of William Shakespeare’s most famous plays has been loved by English teachers and literature professors ever since its release in the mid-90s, and for good reason. William Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet stars DiCaprio and Claire Danes (Stardust) as the titular characters as they tell a familiar tale in the California setting of Verona Beach.
A lot of fun, director Baz Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge!) is at his best here, with explosive action sequences (trading swords for guns) and exciting parties. There’s so much to love about this odd and stylistic version of Shakespeare’s greatest story. DiCaprio and Danes play beautifully against each other, creating lots of genuinely sensual tension that makes one wonder how these two couldn’t fall in love.
Romeo + Juliet may be an old story, but this fresh take brings a necessary new life into the Shakespearian world of the Montagues and the Capulets.
10. Once Upon a Time In… Hollywood (2019)
Possibly their greatest-ever performances, Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt (World War Z) shine like the Hollywood superstars they are in Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time In… Hollywood, which follows actor Rick Dalton (DiCaprio) and his stuntman Cliff Booth (Pitt) as they navigate the ever-changing film industry. All the while, the looming threat of Charles Manson follows closely behind.
