I watched this for the first time two years ago and it was a reminder of why Leo is an international cultural icon at a very young age. A lot of people claim it was because of his cute looks but this young fellow(unlike all pretty boys of Hollywood)oozes intangible charisma and charm, you couple that with a perfectly fit character and you get yourself a guaranteed winner(critically and financially). In this film,unlike Gangs of New York, Dicaprio gets to display a believable and much more interesting character than his character in GONY. not to mention that having Tom Hanks ALWAYS helps. Therefore, it was no surprise that this film made twice as much money as GONY. This movie had more fun scenes than 10 movies combined.
