Great chases and Jones/Ford's great performances make this a great, fun action flick.

Moderately entertaining action movie. Tommy Lee Jones and Harrison Ford are both quite good but in the end there's nothing all that memorable about the movie to make it stand out as great.

A tense, engrossing, sprawling thriller and one of my all-time favorite cinematic mysteries. It may be a film adaptation, but the emotional journey we take with Dr. Kimble and all his "Holy shit!" close escapes make it feel like we've just seen a whole damn TV series of thrills when all is said and done. Tommy Lee Jones is absolutely, utterly awesome. I genuinely do think of it as a masterpiece.

This is very good remake of the classic television series. But as good as Ford's performance is, it is overshadowed by Tommy Lee Jones. Jones steals the movie with his tough as nail US Marshall. He ma have been popular before this movie, but the Fugitive made him a star. Very good special effects as well. Overall a great thriller.

Well-done suspense film without a lot of violence. There's not too many movies that match that description. The final revelation at the end ultimately makes the entire movie not make very much sense, but this is an entertaining yarn about two basically good men pitted against one another by fate

(after repeated viewing) Not without its flaws but some noteworthy performances (Tommy Lee Jones in a badass turn and Ford is favorable leading man) and fluid editing/action turn it into quite a ride.

So awesome in so many ways. Tommy Lee Jones was classic and several of his lines are memorable, and Harrison Ford was great as well. Just an amazing suspense/thriller with great writing, direction, acting, music, cinematography and everything else that goes with making a great film.

Only saw it once in the theater. That's almost twenty years now. I liked it, so maybe I'll give it another go. I'd say it's due. If you have it, I'll watch it now.

The whodunnit reveal in the last 20 minutes gets over-complicated & the film forces the kind of action-packed and cathartic audiences demand even though it requires coincidences & the villain making some dumb & odd choices but the rest of this is a thriller masterpiece with some fantastic setpieces & rarest of all for a thriller: a protagonist & antagonist who are equally matched: both are clever, smart and relentless.

The Fugitive is a great thriller with a fantastic cast, especially Jones who delivers the performance of his career. Ford is also terrific. I also thought the direction really stood out. It was very smart, and sophisticated, with a great plot. One thing that really stands out with the Fugitive for me, is that every Ford movie since this one, hasn't been all that great.

O Fugitivo estreava há 30 anos nos EUA. Cansei de ver esse filme na TV aberta nos anos 90, é muito melhor do que me lembrava (apesar de lembrar de pouca coisa), mas entre as revisões de seriados dos anos 60 nos anos 90, sou muito mais o Missão Impossível do De Palma. RARBG.

Ford is excellent in this non-stop, mysterious thrill-ride. My appreciation for so many Simpsons jokes skyrocketed after this. Jones was good, I enjoyed him. But sometimes, man... sometimes you just want to beat the hell out of the Academy Awards voters.

An excellent thriller, and a good example of how TV adaptations/remakes do not necessarily have to be terrible, if they're done with care. (Note: If, at any point, you are considering casting Jessica Simpson, you are not making a good TV adaptation.) Tommy Lee Jones steals this.

I used to really love this movie, upon watching it again I saw that it is virtually the same as every other Hollywood action movie. The two lead performances are solid but standard, the chase scenes are long an boring and the story is paper thin. A hefty dose of decent action and the grizzled voice of Harrison Ford in all of his "disguises" make this a worthwhile watch, but it fails to be the great action film its pumped up to be.

The Fugitive is a great action thriller, and perhaps the last Harrison Ford movies that safely relies on Ford's performance to make it great. It's the real deal when it comes to entertainment and smart action movies. Tommy Lee Jones also fronts a spectacular supporting cast. Awesome!

Didn't have me on the edge of my seat, exactly, but it kept me interested during its (surprisingly lengthy) running time. Jones was an excellent choice, and the banter he engages in with his crew definitely make up some of the best parts of the film.

A magnificent thriller, the genre has rarely if ever done better than this. The suspense is established, maintained and manipulated masterfully by Andrew Davis - the music helps a lot. Harrison Ford acts in the most well-suited role he ever found, Jones also. Meanwhile the mystery ticks along in the background, not to be guessed before the very end. Great supporting cast, great plot, great stunts and chase sequences. I really can't say enough good things about The Fugitive!
