Leonardo DiCaprio's best film ranked and it's one everyone has forgotten
Leonardo DiCaprio has starred in a number of iconic films over the years, but according to Rotten Tomatoes, one movie in particular stands out as his best work Rotten Tomatoes, the renowned film review aggregator, has compiled an ultimate list of Leonardo DiCaprio's films, ranging from fan favourites to lesser-known gems. The list unveils the top-rated film featuring the Hollywood heavyweight. Leonardo DiCaprio is known for his fearless approach to diverse roles, embodying a range of characters from wealthy tycoons and impoverished voyagers to Shakespeare's Romeo. Each film has been ranked based on fan reviews, with the top spot going to a film where the then 28-year-old actor adopts multiple false identities. "Catch Me If You Can" emerges as DiCaprio's highest-rated film, boasting an impressive 96 per cent score and a plethora of five-star reviews. This 2002 cinematic masterpiece, directed by the legendary Steven Spielberg, left such a lasting impression on film enthusiasts that it has garnered over 1,000 reviews on the platform alone. The film features DiCaprio alongside a star-studded cast including Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken, Martin Sheen, Nathalie Baye, and Amy Adams. It's based on a semi-autobiographical novel by Frank Abagnale Jr, who claimed to have executed numerous cons worth millions of dollars, impersonating a pilot, a doctor, and even a district attorney, all before reaching the tender age of 19, reports the Mirror US. The movie delves into these outlandish and intricate tales, which have since faced considerable scrutiny, as the young lad executes a series of lucrative cons whilst being chased by an FBI operative portrayed by Tom Hanks. A Rotten Tomatoes review says: "Steven Spielberg's Catch Me If You Can is an electric yet ultimately sad story, easily one of his best films from this century. It's packed with so many memorable moments, from Frank Abagnale Jr's audacious cons to Carl Hanratty's relentless pursuit. "Leonardo DiCaprio is dynamite in the lead role, embodying the charm and vulnerability of a young man caught in a web of his own making, while Tom Hanks provides a wonderfully understated counterpoint." Another commented: "Very funny movie that still manages to have a very hard-hitting and emotional drama. Great performances all around, especially by Christopher Walken. It's just overall very entertaining to watch Leonardo DiCaprio's antics and grandiose cons and escapades; what more reason could you have to watch this?". Within the catalogue of over 20 pictures, securing second place as the highest-rated DiCaprio flick is the 2023 offering Killers of the Flower Moon. This production boasts an impressive 93 per cent rating, with audiences captivated by Martin Scorsese's western, adapted from a 2017 novel. Devotees of the silver screen star won't be taken aback to discover that his 1991 role in The Critters is at the very bottom of the list, closely followed by the tropical thriller The Beach. However, there are some unexpected entries in the top 10, including the often overlooked What's Eating Gilbert Grape and the 1996 film Marvin's Room.

Leonardo DiCaprio fans brand little known thriller 'painful watch'
Leonardo DiCaprio's film, The Beach, was released in 2000 and is one of the actor's most divisive roles in his career to date, with some fans calling it a 'painful watch' Leonardo DiCaprio is a titan in Hollywood, yet his early career featured him in this film, set amidst an exotic paradise, which has since left audiences with mixed feelings. The Beach showcases one of the globe's most stunning and renowned beaches, located on the tiny Thai island of Ko Phi Phi Le. Since the film's release, this once tranquil island has become a must-visit spot for any globetrotter, but it hasn't been enough to win over fans of the thriller. Released in 2000, the film follows DiCaprio's character Richard embarking on an adventure as he travels to Bangkok and finds himself lodged in a hotel near Khao San Road. Here, he encounters a jovial French couple and Daffy. They regale him with stories of a deserted island, and Daffy leaves behind a map for him to discover its secret beach. As they voyage to the secluded island, Richard grows increasingly smitten with Françoise, one half of the couple he met, and upon reaching their destination, things aren't quite as expected. They soon realise they aren't alone and start to establish an unconventional community with local inhabitants, while Richard's forbidden romance with Françoise flourishes, adding further complexity to their stay, reports the Express. One review on Rotten Tomatoes stated: "Danny Boyle's 'The Beach' offers an escape for those seeking it. It also emphasises the fact that even in isolation, paradise can consume. For those looking for a blockbuster Hollywood film with blockbuster actors... sure, you'll find them. But you'll miss the whole point of this film. Severely underrated film. Grateful for else shared." Another viewer shared: "Amazing and underrated. Not a love story or a dumb way to show a young DiCaprio. But an interesting reflection on our modern society on the research of pleasure at all costs and on the meaning of "paradise" in our lives." Tilda Swinton stars alongside DiCaprio, playing Sal, the leader of the beach community discovered on the island. Virginie Ledoyen, known for her modelling career in the 90s and roles in French films, plays his love interest and Étienne's girlfriend. However, not everyone had positive things to say about Danny Boyle's film, with some criticising its storyline and adaptation from the book. One person wrote: "Just about watchable. Started ok but then descended into a muddled plot with Richard's intangible mental collapse." A viewer has slammed the film for being "problematic" in terms of the ethics portrayed by its characters, expressing: "It glorifies acting selfishly, lying, manipulation and infidelity as positives. I have never actively HATED a main character more than Leo's character in my entire life." They continued their scathing review, saying: "He has blood on his hands, hurts people he is supposed to care about, ruins the paradise he spends the whole movie trying to find, and then the movie plays a happy jingle and shows you that everything works out fine for him, no consequences, no growth." Despite the mixed feelings towards The Beach, it's interesting to note that Leonardo DiCaprio's top-rated flick on Rotten Tomatoes is Catch Me If You Can, released just a couple of years after. In stark contrast, The Beach finds itself languishing at 28th place in the ranking of DiCaprio's extensive filmography. For those curious to form their own opinions on DiCaprio's controversial turn in The Beach, it's currently available for streaming on Disney+.
