Aside from occasional overstating he usually does, he was good. Maybe, I'm warming up to him. And I really didn't expect to like the film as much as I did.

Anyway, I like Leo the best when he plays to his strengths. Because of his everlasting boyishness he's at his best when he uses that sneaky, boyish charm, like in Catch Me If You Can.
Interesting... I haven't actually watched Shutter Island, I just assumed he played the problem-solving-sleuth-type, which implies a bit of intellectualism. In any case, I agree with that last part

I just saw Hanna. It was cool, I guess. Two things stood out: the music and the action scenes. Everything in between was pretty meehhhhh
