Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Minahzur Rahman I didn't know there was another movie other than The Fugitive. The sequel wasn't that bad. It's almost just as good as The Fugitive. What I like about U.S. Marshals are some of the actors introduced such as Wesley Snipes and Robert Downey. It was these two famous actors that made U.S. Marshals a success. I think they were fine choices in this movie. What really strikes me about this movie is the name - U.S. Marshals. A completely different name compared to its predecessor, and that's probably why many aren't even aware that a sequel to The Fugitive exists. I really like the title of this movie, and think it was a clever idea because it does focus more on Marshals especially Marshal Samuel Gerard. If you have seen The Fugitive, and you enjoyed it, it's highly recommended that you see U.S. Marshals - just to get a different experience.
adonis98-743-186503 US Marshal Samuel Gerard (Jones) and his team of Marshals are assigned to track down Sheridan (Snipes), who has been accused of a double-murder. Although it gets dragged a lot and has some boring pacing U.S Marshals the sequel to the 1993 Masterpiece titled "The Fugitive" is still not a bad film or in this case sequel it's just that it repeats itself threw out the whole thing and it has way too many side stories about some characters that we think that they are the big villains and as it turns out they weren't as far as acting goes Tommy Lee Jones, Wesley Snipes and Robert Downey Jr give 3 great leading performances, the action was handled really well and the story although it's the exact same thing and it moves kinda way too slow at times it still works cause you have an interesting premise and 3 great leading characters and performances. Is the sequel worth watching? Yes of course. Is it better than the Original? Not even in a thousand years but it's still a very good 90's sequel and that's why i'll give it a 8/10
johnrgreen Quite what Wesley Snipes' character was wanted for,I lost interest in,as the usual mix of clichés reeled off.Tommy Lee Jones as the(stifles yawn)cavalier and maverick officer who doesn't give a stuff about authority. Kate Nelligan ,who,in a previous existence was an classical actress but here she's a glamorous superior officer who appears magically out of various choppers into these danger zones ,immaculately besuited as if she's come out of an important meeting and she's not best pleased.She's permanently down on him and of course there's sexual tension between them.Godammit ,she loves the guy! Patrick Formaldahide,another Brit with an accent,introducing inter-departmental rivalry,of course, placing one of his officers with Jones who,naturally,hates him because producers of this kind of thing have to have tension all the time ,you understand.On and on it went.We had Jones' loyal team whooping it up in a bar and watching themselves on TV.Buds all round,you guys! An utterly ridiculous plane crash from which somehow Snipes manages to escape.An episode in a swamp where Snipes gets away from about 6 people by holding up the ,you guessed it, rival officer. I confess to giving up at the halfway point...can you blame me?
sarahmillyhannah This is the first time i have watched this movie and this movie has been out a long time. I loved The Fugitive and the whole Sam and Dr. Richard Kimble, cat and mouse. I was a little disappointed when i realised this was going to go down the same road but the plane crash was spectacular and kept me watching and wanting to see more. I am used to seeing Snipes as a villain so to see him as the running good guy didn't really cut it for me. Downey Junior didn't need to be on screen long before I figured it out he was the one that Sam needed to be after after all and he was actually the best character in this film. This disappointed me really though as if i could figure it out so quickly that he was the bad guy and believe me I am no miss Marple surely the great Deputy could have? But hey, all ends happily and Sam gets his man, unfortunately it does result in one of the regulars being a causality. Its worth an hour or two one Sunday afternoon when there is nothing else on but as for another film, thank goodness they realised Sam couldn't handle that.
