U.S. Marshals Review
by Pierce Dalton
I would even say that I liked it better than The Fugitive, the 1993 Harrison Ford vehicle for which Marshals is a sequel, or spin-off, of, so to speak. more

U.S. Marshals Review
by David Wilcock
The sequel to The Fugitive (1993), U.S Marshals is an average thriller using it's association with The Fugitive just so it can make a few extra bucks. Tommy Lee Jones returns to his role as Chief Deputy Samuel Gerard, the grizzly cop who was after...more

U.S. Marshals Review
by Marty Mapes
My first reaction to U.S. MARSHALS was that there was nothing original, nothing that broke from the action movie formula, in the entire film. I was wrong, but not by much. more

U.S. Marshals Review
by Ryan Davis
"I didn't kill my wife!" Dr. Richard Kimble shouts to his pursuer Marshal Sam Gerard, who responds "I don't care!", right before Richard jumps from a pipe into a river hundreds of feet below. This is a classic scene from a great movie, 1993's The...more

U.S. Marshals Review
by Curtis Edmonds
It's easy to dismiss U.S. Marshals. It's nothing more than a sequel to The Fugitive, a far superior film. Wesley Snipes, while passable as fugitive Mark Sheridan, is no Harrison Ford. The supporting cast blends into the scenery as though they were...more

The best way to approach "U.S. Marshals" is the same way I go into the NBC Tower as an audience member for the Jenny Jones Show. (Is she still on?) Just check your brain at the door, and try to enjoy the ride. It might be a difficult concept to accept...more
U.S. Marshals Review
by Steve Kong
Some say the ultimate flattery is in imitation. With movies, though, I say stay away from sequels -- even if they are quasi-sequels like US Marshals. US Marshals is a semi-sequel to the 1993 blockbuster thriller "The Fugitive" which starred Harrison...more
U.S. Marshals Review
by Yen, Homer
As a psuedo-sequel to 1993's The Fugitive, we can see many elements in this film that parallels its predecessor. Tommy Lee Jones returns to recap his role as the alpha-male US Marshal, Samuel Gerard. He leads his band of deputies through the most...more
U.S. Marshals Review
by Fred M. Hung
I should have known what to expect when I saw the director, Stuart Baird, whose last work was Executive Decision, a mildly entertaining but mostly formulaic and uneven Die Hard in air. In US Marshals, Sam Gerard is again on the hunt for Sheridan, a...more

by Matt Williams
Whatever happened to the art of the sequel? OK, I know that, with a few exceptions, sequels have rarely been as good as their predecessors. But at least sequels used to be sequels. These days, you're more likely to get a simple, pale remake of the...more

What made 1993's 'The Fugitive' so compelling was that it managed to avoid becoming just another routine action picture with a clever script which a lot of writers worked on, among them David Giler, Walter Hill, Robert Mark Kamen, David Newman, Jeb...more

U.S. Marshals Review
by Michael Dequina
Sequels to popular action films are difficult to pull off as they are, and the odds are further stacked against them when (1) the original hero is nowhere to be found, and (2) the original was embraced by critics. This fact--and the failure of last...more
