Advantages: The action never lets up
Disadvantages: None

The Fugitive is probably one of the finest action thrillers ever made, and definately Harrison Ford's best movie. Based on the television series of the same name, the best thing about The Fugitive is that it never lets up the pace, moving along at a thunderous and often breathtaking level. With its quick pacing, rock solid storyline and superb acting this is a great cat and mouse film, with Harrison Ford playing the slipperly fugitive and Tommy Lee ...

There is an unconvincing air about his character, and I am not sure whether this is down to the script or the acting. Paul Bettany ... Read review

Advantages: Harrison Ford at his best.
Disadvantages: Not original.

...performance. The way he challenges the captain is great but Liam's russian accent could be improved but it wasn't a bad attempt. The other actors had difficulty with the russian accent but they pulled off a good attempt. The model shots of the submarine were superb. Its hard to come by a film now a days which uses good models to create a proper effect. Also the use of a ex canadian destroyer and oberon class submarine and a ex russian juliet class ...
