Synopsis
This 1993 box-office smash partly adheres to the 1960s TV series on which it is based and partly goes off on several tangents of its own. Harrison Ford stars as Dr. Richard Kimble, convicted of murdering his wife. While being transferred to prison by bus, Kimble is involved in a spectacular bus-train collision (one of the best of its kind ever filmed). Surviving the disaster, Kimble escapes, vowing to track down the elusive professional criminal whom he holds responsible for the murder. Dogging the fugitive every foot of the way is U.S. marshal Sam Gerard (an Oscar-winning turn by Tommy Lee Jones), who announces his intention to search "every whorehouse, doghouse, and outhouse" to bring Kimble to justice. Unlike his dour TV-series counterpart Barry Morse, Jones plays the role with a sardonic sense of humor: when a cornered Kimble screams, "I didn't kill my wife," Gerard shrugs and famously replies, "I don't care." Once the premise has been established, scripters Jeb Stuart and David Twohy and director Andrew Davis pull off several audacious plot twists, ranging from Kimble's rendezvous with a sympathetic lab technician to a jaw-dropping dive into a huge waterfall. The second half of the film offers one surprise after another (including the true identity of the murderer), brilliantly avoiding the letdown that plagues many movie adaptations of old TV series. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Great Movie, Great action!
Great new special features highlight this new blu!
October 4, 2013Sure, I'm tired of the double dipping, but WB's new Fugitive blu ray worth the upgrade. A full 'Special Edition' with some new supplements and a gorgeous transfer. I'm tired of getting soaked every time they release a new version, but this blu seems pretty 'definitive' (at least for a few years).

A Good Little Movie
September 15, 2008I don't need to say much, most of you have seen the movie. I assume most people can admit it is a fairly good movie. The Blu-ray on the other hand is just so-so.

Never Quite Got It
May 14, 2008I never understood the big craze behind this movie starring Harrison Ford and based off the well known television show of the same name. A mediocre film at best in my opinion, with plenty of bonus materials on this widescreen special edition.

Never Quite Got It
May 15, 2008I never understood the big craze behind this movie starring Harrison Ford and based off the well known television show of the same name. A mediocre film at best in my opinion, with bonus materials ported over from the standard special edition dvd.

This is a Great Movie, Especially if you are a fan of the original series. Buy it on Blu Ray, watch it on your big screen and turn up your surround sound and you'll enjoy a great movie. I think the others who reviewed it are too young to remeber the original or never saw it. Tommy Lee Jones and Harrison Ford do a great job in this Movie. The scense arond Chicago are great! Great Action, acting, and directing!
