Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaHarrison Ford damaged some ligaments in his leg during the filming of the scenes in the woods. He refused to take surgery until the end of filming so that his character would keep the limp. The limp can be seen in any subsequent scene where Richard Kimble is running.
- GoofsKimble's attorney had many opportunities to suppress or refute evidence that may have helped Kimble's case. For example, Kimble's fingerprints being found on his own lamp and his own gun should not have raised any suspicion, yet it's implied that the defense never used this evidence. Also, Kimble's attorney should have looked into alternate explanations as to why there was no forced entry into the Kimbles' home the night of the murder; the question of to whom Richard lent his keys would have brought up.

Featured review
Great Action Thriller starring Harrison Ford
The Fugitive is a complex thriller with every detail playing a significant role in the outcome of the movie. It's the story of a conspiracy surrounding Dr. Richard Kimble, a surgeon who is on the run while U.S Marshal Samuel Gerard tries to find an explanation of why Kimble was framed for the murder of his wife. The movie has a sticking nature to it, every detail in the actors face will prove that Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones deserve every praise they have received for their performance.
Based on the 1960's Television series, this movie does not disappoint. It makes the watcher want to go back and view the original series to see how it compares.
