On his way to the penitentiary, Kimble escapes. Now, like hunted prey, he keeps running--determined only to find his wife's murderer.

Reviews

Gone With The Twins

Mike Massie

The fugitive and his pursuer are both given attention by the script, which is careful to develop characters that are intelligent, insightful, and, most of all, entertaining.

It's a film that uses its spectacle to set up its characters, rather than to pay off its stakes.

Call something a "real train wreck" and it's considered a put-down. Not in this fast-track, no-stops chase movie with a massive train-wreck scene that's going to have audiences scrambling for cover.

Led by two stellar performances, The Fugitive has certainly managed to withstand the test of time.

For the majority of moviegoers born after the last episode, The Fugitive will be entirely new. But for both groups, this should be a highly satisfactory action picture, one that crowns Davis as this summer's new reigning master of the genre.
