Release Date: 7-JUN-2005
Media Type: DVD

Do you know anyone who hasn't seen this movie? A box-office smash when released in 1993, this spectacular update of the popular 1960s TV series stars Harrison Ford as a surgeon wrongly accused of the murder of his wife.He escapes from a prison transport bus (in one of the most spectacular stunt-action sequences ever filmed) and embarks on a frantic quest for the true killer's identity, while a tenacious U.S. marshal (Tommy Lee Jones, in an Oscar-winning role) remains hot on his trail. Director Andrew Davis hit the big time with this expert display of polished style and escalating suspense, but it's the antagonistic chemistry between Jones and Ford that keeps this thriller cooking to the very end. In roles that seem custom-fit to their screen personas, the two stars maintain a sharply human focus to the grand-scale manhunt, and the intelligent screenplay never resorts to convenient escapes or narrative shortcuts. Equally effective as a thriller and a character study, this is a Hollywood blockbuster that truly deserves its ongoing popularity. --Jeff Shannon

Rating:
- One of the best man hunt films ever!
Harrison Ford is suburb and Tommy is true to form. Great story line. All the actors worked well together and transition even makes its way to Tommy's character.
Rating:
- Great Movie! Poor quality dvd.
No doubt about it this is a great movie. It was nominated for Best Picture in '93. But my three star review is for the poor quality dvd. The picture is very grainy. I'm waiting for Warner Brothers to come out with a better quality dvd, maybe a 20th aniversary edition-where they can use a better quality copy of the film for the dvd transfer. And from what I understand the Blueray version is not much better.
