Not the best book-to-TV production, but not the worst. My biggest beef is with casting-I don't have a beef with Kyle MacLachlin, but Sean Dillon (per Higgins' books) is not over 5'4", has sandy hair, and most importantly, AN IRISH ACCENT! Kyle has none of these, making this appear lower budget than it was.

I also like Harrison Ford, and think this was a good role for him. I loved the "sniping" between them-funniest parts of the movie. Oh, and by the way, there are really criminals who use the ocean and will kill you without hesitation, for you guys who thought the "pirate" bit was unrealistic...

The Fugitive

Tommy Lee Jones is THE star

Jones plays a relentless US Marshall (benefiting from an accurate depiction of a fugitive task force and the vast resources available to it) pursuing a wrongly accused but convicted nonetheless Dr. Richard Kimbal. Jones' "Gerard" oozes character...
