Truly an excellent movie!! - The Fugitive Reviews

I cant really tell what Harrison Ford's best movie really is, but I know that this is one of his best. Its funny, I really dont know why I love this movie so much, but I just do, anyway enough fancy talk - about the movie! Excellent movie, a true masterpiece, It keeps you on the edge of your seat from the shocking beginning with Kimball's wife being brutally murdered, to the supensful, action-filled ending which reveals who was behind the whole conspiracy, which I'm not going to tell who it is because that will ruin the whole movie for you. The story is very good, very simple with a few twists between scences, but it'll all make perfect sense in the end if you paid attention during the last half hour of the movie. The acting is one of the reasons this movie is so good. Great performances from Harrison Ford and especially Tommy Lee Jones as U.S. Marshall Sam Gerard. I can't really explain his character in one word so i'll write it out, he's arrogant, funny, very bossy and controlling, and yet he plays a great cop when he's in a bad situation. The direction was also very good. I like how Harrison Ford manages to save that little boys life in the middle of the movie, that made the movie a little more touching for some people. I can't say much about the visuals, although the bus/train wreck was awesome and very realistic. And the settings of the movie were good, from forest to tunnels to city lights. Overall this movie is one of the best in years, it still remains in my top five favorite movies even after seeing great action movies like Spiderman 2 and Van Helsing. Its an action/adventure movie, but it still has lots of suspense and some humorous lines with Tommy Lee Jones. SORRY IF THIS REVIEW HAS BEEN TO LONG,IM ALMOST DONE I PROMISE! There is one more thing id like to add, sorry to the review board for going against the guidelines but i had to add this in the conclusion. There is a movie with funnyman Leslie Neilsen (the Doctor in airplane and the star of the naked gun series) called WRONGFULLY ACCUSED making fun of mostly The Fugitive and a couple other movies. It an older movie (1996) but its freakin HILARIOUS! Also see The Fugitive if you havent, its a great movie, Honest. I hope my long review was helpful!
