THE FUGITIVE (Theatrical Release USA 1993)

 Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì 

The Fugitive—all around good watch—has been so well written that it becomes a classic example of how to build a ‘man on the run’ story. The film is intense and involves the audience’s emotion to the point that desire builds throughout the movie for the main character to survive and have a good outcome. Part of that is due to the wise choice to cast Harrison Ford against Tommy Lee Jones. Watch for  Joe Pantoliano, one of those rare actors who can play any part well, in this film. This movie becomes the prequel that leads to U.S. Marshals.
