TLJ's "I don't care" is still one of the most iconic movie lines of all time in my mind. Everything about that character summed up in three words. He isn't interested in talking, bargaining, he just has a job to do.
Kimble helping/saving that kid in the hospital was one of my favorite "proof the hero has a heart" moments for a protagonist ever. A small scene but played out with stirring, triumphant music like an action scene. Absolutely masterful.
Chris Wake - That also harkens back to the television series. Dr. Richard Kimble was always helping people out even if it meant exposing himself to the public while still searching for the one armed man & exposing his whereabouts to Inspector Gerard who was always hot on his trail to catch him.
The first job I had health insurance with, they gave me this long list of doctors to choose from. Scanning the list, I saw a doctor named Frederick Kimball, and chose him because I thought of Richard Kimball. He was my doctor for 15 years until he retired. Best doctor I've ever had, saved my life. True story.
Cassie on Dr. Nichols: “He’s a good friend…” Audience: “Heh heh heh” Add him to a long list of people that Cassie can’t believe she once liked his face. 😄
Next: _U.S. Marshals_ Tommy Lee Jones was so excellent in _The Fugitive_ that the studio insisted he do it again, so they made _U.S. Marshals_ in which he plays the same character with most of the same crew. Certainly one of the best sequels ever made.
The problem with U.S. Marshals is that they essentially just repeated the same plot, hunting another innocent man framed by a conspiracy. It would have been so much better if Gerard and the team would have actually been going after a real criminal. Wouldn't you assume that was normally the case?
@@lastguyminn2324 eh, it's a popcorn blockbuster action movie ya can't think too hard about it if ya ask me. Just shut your brain off, have some junior mints and enjoy yourself. 🤷
Based on the strength of Jones' performance, this movie actually has a spin-off that follows Tommy Lee Jones' character and crew - US Marshalls, with Wesley Snipes and Robert Downey Jr.
"I want her to be in it more." She had more scenes but she ended up being Richard's love interest and the filmmakers thought it wouldn't put Richard in a good light as his wife has just been killed.
Yeah, it's probably good that they cut it for a film's run length. In the TV show when you have seasons upon seasons, a love interest can be believed and accepted far more easily than the compressed time of this adaptation.
I searched youtube for "fugitive deleted scenes" and what not but didn't find anything. i wonder if those scenes were ever released? not the most important thing for sure, but kind of interested because i've always loved this movie
@@robland6804 It could be that the scene was cut before it was filmed when the filmmakers realized it would diminish his love for his wife. Good call on the filmmaker's part I'd say.
The Fugitive is an incredible film and one of Harrison Fords best, we all knew you would love this extraordinary, quality suspense film. The two characters played by Ford and Jones are the highlight of the film, two very intelligent men engaged in a evade and capture game of whit's. While they start the film at cross purposes both ultimately working in their own way to solve the murder that sparked the flight and chase. Both find clues to solve the murder, reveal the truth and bring those responsible to justice, they come to respect the others intelligence, talent and integrity. Such an amazing film, glad you loved it. 👍😁😎
I highly agreed to that I loved The Fugitive with an amazing story, the fact while it's based on the classic 1960s TV Series but also based on an true story about Dr. Sam Sheppard.
Wyatt Earp was one of the old-time western lawmen. He's most famous for the gunfight at the OK Corral on October 26, 1881 in Tombstone, Arizona. Wyatt was the local sheriff, and he and his brothers Morgan and Virgil, along with Doc Holiday, engaged in a gun battle with Ike and Billy Clanton, Tom and Frank McLaury, and Billy Claiborne. Virgil, Morgan, and Holiday were wounded, and Billy Clanton and the McLaury brothers were killed. Many movies have been made about this incident. Sela Ward, who played Helen Kimble, had been in a bunch of TV shows, including Emerald Point N.A.S., Sisters, Once and Again, House, and CSI: NY. She was also in the movie Gone Girl. The train wreck in The Fugitive wasn't faked. They actually crashed a train into a bus on an unused piece of track. The wreck is still there in Dillsboro, North Carolina, and is now a tourist attraction.
Some of the actors at the OK Corral scene were Stephen Lang (Ike Clinton), John Corbett (Billy Last name?), Thomas Haden Church (character?), part of the cowboy gang. Kurt Russell (Wyatt Earp), Val Kilmer (Doc Holiday), Bill Paxton ( Morgan Earp), and Sam Elliott (Virgil Earp).
Tell me a movie where Tommy Lee Jones is not playing the intractable no nonsense hard ass in charge. From MIB to US marshalls to Volcano... his character always has the same sort of attitude. Volcano is a bad ass movie BTW, I really like him in that.
@@juliant in No Country for Old Men he played it pretty subdued. He really showed some chops in The Missing as a father who had abandoned his family and was seeking redemption.
Caught this on tv the other day, and was unable to look away until the end. That almost never happens to me anymore, so it's a testement to how brilliantly suspenseful this movie is.
Someone get this woman a medal for being a national treasure. So sweet and can't help but love the ride she takes you on watching these movies. Keep making content...this is gonna work out very well for you ;-)
I love that the "Popcorn in Bed" card always imitates the font of the movie title. That's just a great touch. Also, add me to the list of people waiting for Cassie to watch Tombstone.
One thing I like about this movie is that Kimble's ability to outrun Gerard and the authorities is often credited to his cleverness but sometimes the movie also shows that he's sometimes just plain lucky. It makes the times when he outwits people much cooler but also keeps him grounded in a way where his victory is never assured
This movie is based on a real life criminal case involving a Dr. Sam Shepard . That case became the basis for a long running 1960s television series also called the Fugitive which starred David Janssen as Dr. Richard Kimball. The final episode of that series was a record breaking one.
The movie came out 30 years after the start of the TV series. The series ran four seasons from 1963 to 1967 and had 120 episodes. I remember my whole family watching the finale when I was 9.
US Marshall's are fugitive hunters, they don't investigate crimes just catch criminals. That's where the Wyatt Earp reference comes from. Great movie, great review 👍
They do a hell of a lot more than hunt fugitives. I'm talking, protection of federal judicial personnel, asset forfeiture, witness protection, Con Air, execution of federal arrest warrants.
@@dang3r611 the question she asked is why wont Jones character help Dr. Kimball, investigate the case. They were called to capture the fugitive not investigate the circumstance in which he found himself
3 ปีที่แล้ว
Not only fugitives. They are the whole Court system Agents' force.
Whereas that's true, you should watch the series Justified, about a US Marshall that literally investigates crimes each week lol. It is a criminally underrated show, so so good!
As a fellow Harrison Ford fan, I want to recommend Cassie watch "Regarding Henry" because it's such a tearjerker. Being that she enjoys love stories, it might be right up her alley. Also, it's amazing, watching it now, almost 30 years later, to see how many great actors had minor roles in this film.
Oh damn I remember that. Brilliant example of a film actor who can also do such roles. My dad died suddenly in 2001, Harris Ford mixed with Dan Akroyd reminds me of him. Strong individual with 4 kids, possibly a soft spot for the youngest & most dishevelled of his kin. I considered myself a runt but I'm doin okay.
@@Weird.Dreams that is a huge favorite of mine! I think Cassie would really enjoy it. It has great characters who you find yourself rooting for. Joan Cusack is amazing (as always)
Be grateful this was resolved in two hours. Those of us who watched the TV series had to wait four years!! As you love Harison Ford so much and we now know you love suspense/mysery, how about Harrison Ford playing a cop who hides out with the Amish? One of his best movies - "Witness". That should absolutely be your next Harrison Ford movie.
@@AlanCanon2222 witness and air force one and patriot games and clear and present danger. all solid harrison ford movies movies for cassie to watch and react to them.
The "you get a clean shot you take him out" detective was a retired Chicago police officer. I actually spoke to him while he was a customer at a Chicago diner I worked at. He said that line was used as an inside joke about Chicago cops because of how unrealistic it was. I LOVED this movie when it was first released, and it being based where I lived at the time didn't hurt.
This was a hugely popular TV series in the 60s. Imagine getting to watch great stories like this every week for several years. David Janssen, with his kindly demeanor and sad face, was an excellent Richard Kimball, often putting himself at risk to help others. Barry Morse played his dogged pursuer Inspector Gerard. The two-part series finale, in which Kimball finally catches up to the one-armed man, was the highest-rated TV show in history up to that point--millions were tuned in to watch and it was a great shared experience for the whole country.
In the sixties, Morse was eating in a restaurant with his wife in London. When finishing their food, he found a note under his plate, 'Kimbel's washing-up in the kitchens!'
That just sounds so infuriating to watch, if that show was around now. Every week the good guy *almost* catches the bad guy, but he barely gets away, then the good guy has to run and start all over again in the next episode. Back then, TV was all about returning to the status quo, without continuity, so the reruns could be watched in any order. Now everything is part of one long story, meant to be watched from the first episode to the last. There were no "spoilers" back then. I'm biased because I wasn't around in the '60s, but that old format sounds so frustrating to me, knowing he could never catch the guy until the final episode, without story progression.
IIRC, Jim Carrey even utters the line "It wasn't me! It was the one-armed man!" in the movie The Mask. Had NO idea it might have been related to the Fugitive show/movie!!!
Yeah..that's not the job of the police...there job is to get the facts and the tough guy approach is effective in catching ppl in a lie and getting to the truth. I see Cassie doesn't get that bc of the being caught up in emotion but that doesn't help in intelligence gathering in determining if someone is a potential suspect.
@@shootingreal5945 Problem is, cops are unreliable and often lazy and sometimes outright corrupt. They have an unnerving habit of getting false confessions out of people. And break the law constantly. And yet most people don't care, when really it should horrify you all. Cops are not your friend, do not talk to the cops, do not help the cops. Because if they feel like it they'll pin anything on you simply because you spoke.
@@andromidius It's not wise to boardstroke a entire group nationally..that's the type of bias that racist use..just assume everyone of this group or that is out to get you ..there are plenty of stories of cops risking life and limb for others..it's outright nonsense to make a board statement like that. There are plenty of hardworking family men who are cops..look pass your bias..I am myself a minority who has experienced racism from cops but i have also witness cops who are heroes.
One of the all-time great action movies. Perfectly conceived, written, paced, constructed and acted. The exchange between Ford and Jones in the tunnel is like a masterclass in economic storytelling. Impeccably crafted and highly exhilarating. I will never forget seeing this in the theater with my dad and the audience's audible reaction in the train scene. You are in for a ride, Cassie. Incidentally, if you like this, you *really* need to watch the first DIE HARD.
Saw this in the theater three times back in 1993. One of my all-time favorite thrillers. It's amazing how great this turned out considering they started filming it without a finished script. They literally wrote the movie as they were making it, sometimes right before they shot a scene.
Thank you Cassie for doing a video reaction to one of my favorite films from the 90s! It’s also based on the amazing 1960s TV series of the same name. (5:03) Defendants are allowed to give their own testimonies in a criminal trial, but they often don’t. This is because the burden of proof is on the prosecution, cross-examinations on the stand can be very brutal, and the defendant might not want to risk saying anything that could discredit his case or further incriminate himself. If Kimble did talk in that trial, that probably wouldn’t have made a difference. He needed to find the one-armed man, and get the evidence against him. (7:56) You have to see the film Tombstone! (8:03) I don’t think they knew Copeland was still alive at that point. Meanwhile Kimble was charged with murder and sentenced to death, which likely made him a priority. (17:28-17:41) He already had one. That might look a little too suspicious in front of the cops. (23:38) No, because Kimble is not a killer, so those guns have no use to him. Plus if Kimble was caught by police carrying guns that don’t belong to him, it could lead to additional charges. He had get rid of the guns, and put them in the most secure location he could find. (24:01) To be fair. Kimble altered his appearance enough to where most people didn’t recognize him. All Sykes had to do was change his hairstyle and he looked different enough that you started questioning if he was the killer. (27:58) That is so sweet, but I’m not sure that kind of ending would have fit the tone of the film. For other amazing action thrillers from the 90s, you should totally watch Air Force One, Crimson Tide, and Speed.
I've cited The Fugitive as one of my favorite movies for years, based solely on how much I enjoyed it the one time I watched it, but this made me realize I'd forgotten SO much of the plot. Nice to rediscover it along with you!
I used to watch it whenever it was on. One of my favourites! I absolutely love the scene where Jones' character takes the handcuffs off of Richard's hands ❤️
The Fugitive has been one of my very favorite movies since it first came out. (I'm ancient) Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for doing what you do, so very well. All of your movie reactions are purely delightful to watch, and your kind and gentle spirit is refreshingly genuine. Please know you are appreciated for so many reasons and I will continue to enjoy your reactions for as long as you continue to watch movies. Thank you, Cassie.
This is such a great movie! I grew up in the Chicago suburbs and lived in the city proper for about 7 years. When this movie came out, it was so cool to see all the bits of Chicago that I knew personally! Also, many, if not all, the reporters in this movie were actual local newspaper and TV reporters. And I think a number of the cops had been actual Chicago cops at one time. Great reaction Cassie!!!
When I see my brother at family events, I'll give him a hug and whisper "You switched the samples..." and he'll respond "you never give up, Richard, you never give up."
I absolutely love the "sequel" to this film U.S. Marshals, featuring the same team chasing down another fugitive, only this time there's a much larger conspiracy at play. It's less personal... at least in the first half, and there's more action, it's not the classic this movie is but if you want more i definitely recommend it.
US Marshalls was okay, but really that's mostly due to Tommy Lee Jones. You take him out of the equation, and the movie isn't even decent. This one is a great stand alone flick to me, just really smart, and really well made/acted from start to finish
One of the most interesting thing about US Marshals… Tommy Lee Jones shared the screen with both Wesley Snipes and Robert Downey Jr and “Jimmy Pants” Joe Pantoliano
I love watching you watch movies I love: you ask good questions, show such great empathy with the characters and add a nice twist to movies I like. And yes, it is scary how people can be framed and/or be found guilty while actually innocent. Thanks Cassie.
"How does this end?" "I don't know what I want to happen." Signs of a masterfully done movie right there. Keeps you on the edge of your seat and guessing until the end. It bothers me that people only think of Star Wars or Indiana Jones for Harrison Ford. By far some of his best work has been stand alone films: The Fugitive 42 Air Force One Regarding Henry He's a fantastic actor.
Add in the Jack Ryan movies to that; Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger are two of my all time favorite Ford movies. But his work in Regarding Henry was probably the most impressed I’ve been with him as an actor.
@@bryceweber3040 Oh heck yeah man, I can't believe I forgot to add those to the list. I personally liked Clear and Present Danger more than Patriot Games, but at least Patriot Games had Sean Bean, and he's always amazing. Thanks for mentioning those. I agree that Regarding Henry was probably his best performance ever, although I think his role is 42 was equally impressive. Have a good one.
This was one of Harrison's best movies. My (late) Mom was thrilled they had made a movie from the old TV show she used to watch as a teen. Plus, she and I both were HF fans too. Glad you watched this one Cassie! 😊
The Fugitive had one of the greatest teaser trailers ever. I was like 13 when it came out and had just watched some of the TV series a few weeks prior to seeing the trailer in the theater. I kind of freaked out because I had just found out about it. Fun fact, the detective with the thick NYC accent and the mustache was a real NYC detective, and Harrison's limp was actually real because he damaged ligaments in his leg during the filming in the woods, he refused surgery so it would be real.
Three things I learned from this reaction.. 1) Cassie doesn’t know this is based on the classic tv series and has never heard of it. 2) Cassie has never heard of Wyatt Earp. 3) Cassie really REALLY loves Harrison Ford!
Cassie: Your editor is good! I picked up the exact story.. and I've seen the movie (a favorite all-time) and your edit/reaction tells the story very well!
This was a movie based on an excellent old television show. I’m really enjoying watching your reactions, especially your later ones where you have built a really respectable body of movie knowledge, and can recognize actors, catch references, throw out movie quotes. This is the record of our modern society, just as novels, paintings and poetry reflect previous generations.
I'm thrilled to see that you're enjoying the suspense genre. Rear Window definitely fits into that category too. Very excited to see your reaction! The Fugitive is one of my favorite films to watch with my dad. He introduced it to me when I was a teenager and instantly became an all time great for me. Harrison Ford is so easy to root for but Tommy Lee Jones(who won an Oscar for this role) steals the show. Kimble's intelligence and Gerard's restlessness make the story so engaging and exhilarating. If you see this movie on TV flipping through the guide, it's hard to resist putting it on. So good!
Cassie "Get into a crowd!" HF gets into a crowd. Cassie "Take your jacket off!" HF takes his jacket off. I love it when you do that in your videos! 😂😂😂
'Presumed Innocent' too. It gets so little attention and is so well acted. One of the few films with Bonnie Bedelia (Culkin) from Die Hard, and it also has a small cameo role with a very young Timmy from Jurassic Park.
@@rohe4077 Yes that is true, but there is more to his life than that which few people seem to know about. His heavily pregnant wife Sharon Tate and 4 friends were murdered at the beginning of the Manson family killing spree of 1969, less than a month after Apollo 11 landing on the Moon. The crime in question occured 8 years later. Supposedly he fled after making a plea deal with the prosecution that the judge rejected ONLY AFTER Polanski had already pled guilty to the offence - effectively taking away any option to make a case at trial and leaving him entirely at the mercy of the same judge/prosecution combo that tricked him into pleading guilty without a defense in the first place. He fled to France where he was born and would have been deported to once his indeterminate prison term had ended.
Clearly he was already extremely famous before that given he moved to a brand new town and basically everybody already knew his name - including the mayor the minute he got off the train.
@@mnomadvfx He’s referring to OK Corral as being the most famous thing about Earp’s life. Which undoubtedly, it is. There are ppl who have heard of OKCorral, and know it was a bloody shoutout, but couldn’t tell you the parties involved.
Great reaction cassie... Just letting you know they did make a sequel/spin off film called 'US Marshals' and it follows the further adventures of Sam Gerard,(Tommy Lee Jones) & his team as he tries to bring another fugitive to justice as well as keep him alive, who just may know a little too much...it also features Weasley Snipes (Blade, Expendables 3, Demolition Man) & Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man, Chaplin, Sherlock Holmes). Highly underrated and definitely worth a watch since you liked this one....
Julianne Moore was supposed to have a bigger role where they start a romance but it ended up being cut for time and keep the love ebetween Richard and his wife. Great movie.
This was before ‘Boogie Nights’, ‘Magnolia’ etc when she became really well known. When her name popped up in the opening credits, I was like “Wait, Julianne Moore is in this!?” 😂 Also, the guy playing Cosmo the Deputy Marshal (Joe Pantoliano) is the same guy best known for playing Cypher in The Matrix, it was funny seeing him with regular hair and a mo given I remembered him bald and with a goatee!
Hi Cassie, this film was based on a 1960`s weekly tv show I used to watch starring David Janssen. How you felt when he just evaded their pursuit, was almost every week for me at the time. I`m glad you enjoyed this film version, I first saw it in the late `90`s & I must admit they did a good job. There is a follow up film called (U.S. Marshals, 1998) based on the pursuit team not the good Dr., I think, you would enjoy that too.
This is one of my dad's all-time favorite movies! I remember when I was like about 11 or 12, he was so excited to sit down and show it to me for the first time.
I gotta say... a MASSIVE kudos to your editor on this one. Brilliant job all the way. Oh and your rollercoaster of emotions in this was awesome (as usual). This movie is a gem that thankfully stands the test of time. If yer on the suspense trail (though this one IS hard to follow), I'd suggest Suspect (1987) starring Cher. But as usual... WORKING GIRL, lol, I couldn't resist ;)
@@donaldrack They did get all the main beats, all except (and I am really not 'holding' this against them, lol) but considering how close they came to keeping them 'all' in... they left out Tommy Lee giving that brilliant surprise side tilt of the head and mouthing some profanity (when Ford falls getting caught between the bullet proof glass doors shutting)... oh and the ever powerful "We got us a gopher!". But again, exemplary precise/editing.
"Can you just show me everyone clapping and apologizing to him?" - Cassie, this is something movies used to do more of (leave some details to the imagination), especially at the end credits roll. If you put it into perspective, and consider that the filmmakers wanted you to imagine the best possible ending according to you in particular, it makes you appreciate the story that much more. Today's films [read: audiences] require more complicated hand-holding unfortunately. Yet again, great video.
They leave it open so the optimist believe he gets the apology while the pessimist know everyone will still see him as guilty and nobody will hire him because of the bad rep.
This is my favorite video of yours yet, Cassie. It was fascinating to watch _The Fugitive_ from a woman's perspective. I think the objective for men would be to escape or solve the crime on our own. You wanted someone to believe Kimble or be his friend, which is actually helpful if escaping or solving a crime. Pro tip: If you're ever trying to avoid detection, put something on your head, like Kimble does in the parade. It's amazing how difficult it is to identify someone if they have or had a head covering.
The Best two action/suspense thrillers that came out of the nineties were The Fugitive and Speed. The Fugitive won Tommy Lee Jones an Oscar for Best Supporting Role. The movie was also nominated for Best Editing, Best Picture, and Best Film Score. So I don't understand those who keep knocking this film. As for Speed, I think suspense/action wise it's on a par with The Fugitive. It was nominated for best sound and best editing. It's the film where Keanu Reeves proved he could handle the action/hero role, and it's the movie that put Sandra Bullock on the map. It gives you three action sequences for the price of one, even up until the very very end. It would make a great reaction movie if you've never seen it, but for all the movies I see in these reaction videos (not just yours) the film is strangely never mentioned. I guess everybody's seen it. I find these types of movie reactions superior than a lot of movies that won oodles of awards.
@@-M0LE Cassie would love speed. She will be on the edge of the bed the whole damn movie and it's got the revenge plot that hits her right in the feels just like the fugitive. It's not urgent but she should see it in the not too distant future

Who's Wyatt Earp? Who's Wyatt . . . oh yeah, I forgot you're Canadian. Wyatt Earp was the most famous American old west lawman. He was a US marshall, in fact. He was also friends with Doc Holiday, the notorious outlaw gunfighter and dentist. Wyatt was involved in the infamous shootout at the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona in which he killed three members of an outlaw gang. There was a very popular movie made about him starring Kurt Russell. It's called Tombstone.
Thank you. The only person here who actually bothered explaining who he was instead of just suggesting Tombstone as if Wyatt Earp was some sort of fictional character.
I think the one of the most intense courtroom thrillers is "PRIMAL FEAR" with Richard Gere and an amazing performance by Edward Norton in his first film. I guarantee the end of the movie will knock you to the floor.
@@AgunziLFC did you see that guy who was arrested and pretended to be crazy. He acts like Edward Norton and rain man. It's so funny. It's on TH-cam. The title is... What Pretending to be Crazy looks like...
I adore this film but wish you hadn't told her the ending will knock her to the floor. Sets up an expectation so it won't be quite as huge a shock. She'll still love it, though.
The intensity of this movie is great. It really stands the test of time. Director Andrew Davis has some classics under his belt, and worked with Tommy Lee Jones on at least 3 that I know of. The Package, Under Siege, and The Fugitive.
Tommy Lee Jones was so good in this role, he won Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars. This movie cemented him as a viable leading man. We already knew about Harrison Ford.
I call The Fugitive a complete movie, and I don't understand why it's not reacted to more frequently. Another movie is The Untouchables with Kevin Costner, Sean Connery and Robert DeNiro. Both of these movies are based on real events and the popular TV-series that spawned from these events, so the hype was tremendous.
I love The Untouchables, it's a stylish gangster masterpiece from Brian DePalma. But calling it "based on real events" is stretch. Other than the fact that there were real people named Al Capone, Elliott Ness, and Frank Nitti and a city named Chicago, EVERYTHING else was a complete fabrication.
My mouth dropped when I saw this movie. I lived just down the block from where the bar Kimball makes the call. Pullman is a very historic neighborhood. You can count on one hand at that time how many movies showed anywhere on the far south side of Chicago.
Your reactions were adorable. May I suggest watching one of my all time favorites in that genre - Rear Window. I saw it when it first came out (1954 - I was eleven years old) and even though it was shot on a Hollywood set, it still exudes the zeitgeist of certain NYC neighborhoods. More to the point, it is superb entertainment as it was directed by Alfred Hitchcock in one of his most successful pieces of work. I think James Stewart gave one of his best performances in that flick. Grace Kelly was soooo gorgeous! The supporting actors - Thelma Ritter, Wendel Corey, and Raymond Burr - gave excellent performances as well. I lived in Manhattan for my first 29 years and the courtyard depicted in the movie could be typical of some in the west village (Greenwich Village) where I lived (Horatio Street) for a couple years when I was first married.
One of the best things about this movie is it doesn't make me hate Tommy Lee Jones. In fact, I kind of root for him. Not to catch Harrison Ford, but just because he's a good guy and he's good at what he does.
Despite the the guy who killed his wife, and the Doctor who set it all up, TLJ is really the antagonist to Kimball in this movie. The main story is him being on the run. So it's cool that the antagonist to the main character is not the bad guy though.
Movies like this make me realize how much I took for granted great films in the early to mid 90's. Not sure if it's been done here but The Devil's Own with Ford & Brad Pitt was amazing.
One of my favorite movies! Back when the movie first was released I was watching Wheel of Fortune and guessed the answer before any of the letters were shown. It was "Harrison Ford in the Fugitive".
Why people recommend so many crappy movies for her to watch. If she really has only seen chick-flicks, she should start from the (modern) classics. For example work your way down IMDb Top 250. Or all Oscar Best Picture winners. What Lies Beneath is neither, IMDb score a measly 6.6. Basically nothing under 7 is worth watching, and very few under 8 can be considered a classic
Also, what's the point of recommending horror and violent/gory movies to her, again, someone who formely saw just romcoms and chick-flicks. She's not gonna enjoy them, even if she pretends to. Why not recommend something proper, that isn't based on jump scares or mindless violence
yes, I think she would really enjoy that. It's one of the more interesting Harrison Ford films and the climax will have her climbing the walls. I think it would be a great choice because it's suspenseful but not overtly violent or gory. Might be a good one for her to watch during spooky season.
@@sandpiperr There's a difference between "The movie I thought should win, didn't win" and "Oscar Best Picture winners often suck". They almost never suck (if you really think that, you have limited intelligence and poor taste) although the best doesn't always win. IMDb score isn't infallible either, but IMDb top 250 is way better guide for meaningul movies, than random TH-cam recommendations. There's thousands and thousands of average movies with 6.6 score, movie with that low score is hardly a must-see. 6.6 = run of the mill "let's kill some time" movie
I remember first seeing this movie in my Criminal Law class. The Professor had spent decades in law enforcement prior to becoming an educator, and showed us this film to teach us about all the resources US Marshall’s had 🤯
I remember watching the TV series when I was a kid in the 60's. This was a great re imagining of the story. Harrison Ford is a fantastic actor. Love all his work, right back to the first thing I remember seeing him in - "Where Were you in 62". Your reactions are always great!
Julianne Moore was the perfect character actor for this movie. A highly recognizable person who was an in control, take no crap Doctor, then out. This movie was based on the TV series of the 1960's of the same name, which I had seen as a kid. I enjoyed the movie version and Harrison was a great choice for the lead.
This was definitely the first movie I saw Julianne Moore in. She was an unknown at this point to most of the public. So no one would've really expected her to have a bigger role in the movie like Cassie did. I didn't even realize Jane Lynch was in it. I didn't know who she was the last time I saw this. Jeroen Krabbé played a James Bond villain before this, so that might have been a big clue that he was the villain in this to astute moviegoers.
@@jedijones my first was The Big Lebowski haha, and obviously I’d watched Boogie Nights and Magnolia, so when the opening credits had her name pop up, I was like “Woah, Julianne Moore is in this!?”
Did you know that this was based ON A TV SERIES from the 1960s? And for many years, the series Finale, when the one-armed man is found, was the most watched episode in TV history.
Air Farce One is pretty bad. Why not see "Die Hard" first... an actually good movie that inspired the copycats. Ford has done so many bad movies also, nobody should watch a movie because a certain actor is in it. And if one insinsts on watching action-thriller with Ford in it, the two Jack Ryan movies he made are way better than Air Farce One.
It's not an action movie, but Harrison Ford's best performance I know is in Regarding Henry as a man struggling to reconstruct his life and identity after losing his memory. A tear-jerker and a masterpiece.
Who’s “Wyatt Erap” lol. God I feel old. I know who he is and I’m a Canadian. It’s fun to watch people reaction to these old great movies. Great reaction!!
"Who's Wyatt Earp?"
Immediately every guy watching adds TOMBSTONE to their mental list of movies for Cassie to watch.
i was LITERALLY thinking the same thing haha
I was looking for that. She should watch TOMBSTONE... amazing movie and answers the question :P
ABSOLUTELY FRICKING TRUE 👍 👏 🙌 👌 😃🤣
Just want i was thinking.
Definitely worth watching for Kurt Russell and Val Kilmer.
"-I didn't kill my wife"
"-I don't care"
Always loved this film.
One of it's best scene in film history.
Classic
I remember watching this as a kid, one of the best movies I ever watched, does anyone know red dog or is that just an Australian thing?
Ow my glasses
Now shes reedy for the Leslie Nielsen parody , Wrongfully Accused .
"1993 ... which seems like it should only be ten years ago ... but was almost 30 years ago." So many of us can relate to this.
Even tho it's only been 4 years since the Covid Outbreak, I feel like I've aged 10 hard years in these last 48 months
I was 24 years old😢😢😢😢😅😅
“Who’s Wyatt Earp?”
Someone needs to watch Tombstone…ASAP.
O hell yes! Cass, you have to!
100% agree amazing movie
Greatest/coolest group of male actors in one movie!
How about reading a history book. Wyatt Earp is pretty famous. lol
Hell yeah
'He's a fancy doctor, doesn't that give him a alibi?'
Cassie knows the law.
I'm like "That's not what that word means".
She really needs to stop acting so sensitive about movies. She was almost crying in the first five minutes
If they're fancy enough doctors they can even lie to Congress.
Two separate comments by Cassie. She said the alibi part when she thought he was in surgery at the time of the break-in.
@@jsharp3165 Kind of peculiar that she used the words 'fancy doctor' in your re-telling of the story then...
TLJ's "I don't care" is still one of the most iconic movie lines of all time in my mind. Everything about that character summed up in three words. He isn't interested in talking, bargaining, he just has a job to do.
And he has a hell of a lot to learn.
"Who is Wyatt Earp?"
I guess time to add Tombstone (1993) with Kurt Russell as Wyatt Earp.
Because that's the real wyatt earp
@@servantprince Let's be honest...the only reason Tombstone is any good is because of Doc.
@@douglasmcnay644 yup.
Kevin Kostner's Wyatt Earp is very good too and perhaps has more epic and bombast
And for a funny little connection, a very young Kurt Russell also played Gerard's son in the TV series of The Fugitive.
Kimble helping/saving that kid in the hospital was one of my favorite "proof the hero has a heart" moments for a protagonist ever. A small scene but played out with stirring, triumphant music like an action scene. Absolutely masterful.
Chris Wake - That also harkens back to the television series. Dr. Richard Kimble was always helping people out even if it meant exposing himself to the public while still searching for the one armed man & exposing his whereabouts to Inspector Gerard who was always hot on his trail to catch him.
It’s almost like if that’s the last good thing he gets to do before getting captured again he could die a happy man
I get seriously emotional over small character moments like these. That scene always makes me a bit teary-eyed. He saved that kid's life.
The first job I had health insurance with, they gave me this long list of doctors to choose from. Scanning the list, I saw a doctor named Frederick Kimball, and chose him because I thought of Richard Kimball. He was my doctor for 15 years until he retired. Best doctor I've ever had, saved my life. True story.
Wow, that's amazing!
was there also a Dr Richard Sykes on the list?
@@ThePuschkin1986 I don't remember it was in 1995.
@@ThePuschkin1986 I'd be more interested in a redhead Julianne Moore.
You need a job to have health insurance? And they tell you which medical doctors you can or can't consult? Oh right, that place.
Cassie on Dr. Nichols:
“He’s a good friend…”
Audience:
“Heh heh heh”
Add him to a long list of people that Cassie can’t believe she once liked his face. 😄
He went on a rampage after this in Holland.
The movie does a good job as presenting him as likeable and someone who is loyal to Kimble. Makes the twist better
@t1mpani
Yeah, but we all fell for it the first time round.
Absolutely, me too!
Next: _U.S. Marshals_ Tommy Lee Jones was so excellent in _The Fugitive_ that the studio insisted he do it again, so they made _U.S. Marshals_ in which he plays the same character with most of the same crew. Certainly one of the best sequels ever made.
She's gonna be real sad at one point if she watches it though. REAL sad...
The problem with U.S. Marshals is that they essentially just repeated the same plot, hunting another innocent man framed by a conspiracy. It would have been so much better if Gerard and the team would have actually been going after a real criminal. Wouldn't you assume that was normally the case?
@@lastguyminn2324 eh, it's a popcorn blockbuster action movie ya can't think too hard about it if ya ask me. Just shut your brain off, have some junior mints and enjoy yourself. 🤷
First she has to watch Tombstone.
the client too th-cam.com/video/A6Ru1zDsws0/w-d-xo.html
2 years late to this reaction. When she said, “under whose authority?” I burst out laughing. Very sweet and genuine.
Based on the strength of Jones' performance, this movie actually has a spin-off that follows Tommy Lee Jones' character and crew - US Marshalls, with Wesley Snipes and Robert Downey Jr.
A FANTASTIC sequel!! I hope she reacts to that one of these days.
Such a great film! :D
@Romanogers4ever You should see "Back To School". There you'll see a much younger RDJ.
@@lesliecruzado2793 or Weird Science
@@g8kpr3000 Or "Heart and Souls" which I think is RDJ's best movie.
"I want her to be in it more."
She had more scenes but she ended up being Richard's love interest and the filmmakers thought it wouldn't put Richard in a good light as his wife has just been killed.
interesting, i always wondered why julianne moore was in this film for about a 3-minute scene
Yeah, it's probably good that they cut it for a film's run length. In the TV show when you have seasons upon seasons, a love interest can be believed and accepted far more easily than the compressed time of this adaptation.
Oh really? Good call on the filmmakers part cutting that out. It would have really taken away from the story.
I searched youtube for "fugitive deleted scenes" and what not but didn't find anything. i wonder if those scenes were ever released? not the most important thing for sure, but kind of interested because i've always loved this movie
@@robland6804 It could be that the scene was cut before it was filmed when the filmmakers realized it would diminish his love for his wife. Good call on the filmmaker's part I'd say.
The Fugitive is an incredible film and one of Harrison Fords best, we all knew you would love this extraordinary, quality suspense film. The two characters played by Ford and Jones are the highlight of the film, two very intelligent men engaged in a evade and capture game of whit's. While they start the film at cross purposes both ultimately working in their own way to solve the murder that sparked the flight and chase. Both find clues to solve the murder, reveal the truth and bring those responsible to justice, they come to respect the others intelligence, talent and integrity. Such an amazing film, glad you loved it. 👍😁😎
_"game of whit's"_
*_"Wits"._* No 'h', no apostrophe.
I saw it when it was released and it totally lived up to its hype.
I highly agreed to that I loved The Fugitive with an amazing story, the fact while it's based on the classic 1960s TV Series but also based on an true story about Dr. Sam Sheppard.
Wyatt Earp was one of the old-time western lawmen. He's most famous for the gunfight at the OK Corral on October 26, 1881 in Tombstone, Arizona. Wyatt was the local sheriff, and he and his brothers Morgan and Virgil, along with Doc Holiday, engaged in a gun battle with Ike and Billy Clanton, Tom and Frank McLaury, and Billy Claiborne. Virgil, Morgan, and Holiday were wounded, and Billy Clanton and the McLaury brothers were killed. Many movies have been made about this incident.
Sela Ward, who played Helen Kimble, had been in a bunch of TV shows, including Emerald Point N.A.S., Sisters, Once and Again, House, and CSI: NY. She was also in the movie Gone Girl.
The train wreck in The Fugitive wasn't faked. They actually crashed a train into a bus on an unused piece of track. The wreck is still there in Dillsboro, North Carolina, and is now a tourist attraction.
Some of the actors at the OK Corral scene were Stephen Lang (Ike Clinton), John Corbett (Billy Last name?), Thomas Haden Church (character?), part of the cowboy gang. Kurt Russell (Wyatt Earp), Val Kilmer (Doc Holiday), Bill Paxton ( Morgan Earp), and Sam Elliott (Virgil Earp).
She needs to see Tombstone then, it’s what we are saying.
Tommy Lee Jones nailed his role in this movie. He's like a dog. If you leave trails or odor that's traceable, HE WILL FIND YOU. Great movie 😁😁😁
He did it so good that they made another movie with Tommy Lee Jones playing the same roll; U.S Marshal. Great movie
Tell me a movie where Tommy Lee Jones is not playing the intractable no nonsense hard ass in charge.
From MIB to US marshalls to Volcano... his character always has the same sort of attitude.
Volcano is a bad ass movie BTW, I really like him in that.
@@juliant he's basically the same guy in Captain America and Fire Birds, too.
Reminds me of family guy clip
@@juliant in No Country for Old Men he played it pretty subdued. He really showed some chops in The Missing as a father who had abandoned his family and was seeking redemption.
Caught this on tv the other day, and was unable to look away until the end. That almost never happens to me anymore, so it's a testement to how brilliantly suspenseful this movie is.
Someone get this woman a medal for being a national treasure. So sweet and can't help but love the ride she takes you on watching these movies. Keep making content...this is gonna work out very well for you ;-)
*medal
You were right.
I love that the "Popcorn in Bed" card always imitates the font of the movie title. That's just a great touch.
Also, add me to the list of people waiting for Cassie to watch Tombstone.
the little things are never what's important.
One thing I like about this movie is that Kimble's ability to outrun Gerard and the authorities is often credited to his cleverness but sometimes the movie also shows that he's sometimes just plain lucky. It makes the times when he outwits people much cooler but also keeps him grounded in a way where his victory is never assured
yeah he gets lucky, don't overthink it
This movie is based on a real life criminal case involving a Dr. Sam Shepard . That case became the basis for a long running 1960s television series also called the Fugitive which starred David Janssen as Dr. Richard Kimball. The final episode of that series was a record breaking one.
Thank you for bring that up because that is my favorite crime cases in history. I truly believe that Dr. Sam Sheppard is innocent!
Indeed
@@matthewdunham1689 Heck I have been trying to tell my pal that The Fugitive film is based on a true story from Dr. Sam Sheppard case.
The movie came out 30 years after the start of the TV series. The series ran four seasons from 1963 to 1967 and had 120 episodes. I remember my whole family watching the finale when I was 9.
One of the first drama TV series to actually have an ending.
US Marshall's are fugitive hunters, they don't investigate crimes just catch criminals. That's where the Wyatt Earp reference comes from. Great movie, great review 👍
They do a hell of a lot more than hunt fugitives. I'm talking, protection of federal judicial personnel, asset forfeiture, witness protection, Con Air, execution of federal arrest warrants.
@@dang3r611 the question she asked is why wont Jones character help Dr. Kimball, investigate the case. They were called to capture the fugitive not investigate the circumstance in which he found himself
Not only fugitives. They are the whole Court system Agents' force.
Whereas that's true, you should watch the series Justified, about a US Marshall that literally investigates crimes each week lol. It is a criminally underrated show, so so good!
As a fellow Harrison Ford fan, I want to recommend Cassie watch "Regarding Henry" because it's such a tearjerker. Being that she enjoys love stories, it might be right up her alley.
Also, it's amazing, watching it now, almost 30 years later, to see how many great actors had minor roles in this film.
What about Working Girl? My sister used to have that on a lot when we were young.🙃
Oh damn I remember that. Brilliant example of a film actor who can also do such roles. My dad died suddenly in 2001, Harris Ford mixed with Dan Akroyd reminds me of him. Strong individual with 4 kids, possibly a soft spot for the youngest & most dishevelled of his kin. I considered myself a runt but I'm doin okay.
@@Weird.Dreams that is a huge favorite of mine! I think Cassie would really enjoy it. It has great characters who you find yourself rooting for. Joan Cusack is amazing (as always)
OMG yes please Cassie watch Regarding Henry - BIll Nunn's role is amazing
"His fingerprints were on the lamp" said the investigator
He lives there. If the house had none of his prints that would be suspicious.
If you want another great Harrison Ford movie, watch Witness. Hugely underrated.
Very good movie, but underrated? I think it won best picture.
I'll second, third and fourth that suggestion.
Witness is a great movie, good suggestion.
@@alswearengen6427 It was nominated for Best Picture. But it won for Original screenplay and cinematography
I don't think it is or was underrated, but it was forgotten by the new generation like great movies from 50s, 60s, 70s.
You know there is real suspense, when Cassie wouldn't even finish "Oh my gosh!". 😁
Another Harrison Ford movie I'll suggest is Witness. I really think you'd like it. Its a crime story but also a love story too.
Excellent pick!
I've heard that Witness is the only movie that got him an Oscar nominated for Best Actor. I'll have to check it out too.
I second that. Witness is fantastic.
Oh wow, great film and great choice. I think she'd love that!
That's a GOOD one! :D
Be grateful this was resolved in two hours. Those of us who watched the TV series had to wait four years!! As you love Harison Ford so much and we now know you love suspense/mysery, how about Harrison Ford playing a cop who hides out with the Amish? One of his best movies - "Witness". That should absolutely be your next Harrison Ford movie.
With the added bonus that it’s a charming love story as well, so it’s right up her alley
Oh, that's a very good suggestion for Cassie. Yes! "Witness" is a great movie for her to react to.
@@AlanCanon2222 witness and air force one and patriot games and clear and present danger. all solid harrison ford movies movies for cassie to watch and react to them.
As The Mostiquo Coast, Blade Runner, 42 and What lies Beneath.
The "you get a clean shot you take him out" detective was a retired Chicago police officer. I actually spoke to him while he was a customer at a Chicago diner I worked at. He said that line was used as an inside joke about Chicago cops because of how unrealistic it was. I LOVED this movie when it was first released, and it being based where I lived at the time didn't hurt.
This was a hugely popular TV series in the 60s. Imagine getting to watch great stories like this every week for several years. David Janssen, with his kindly demeanor and sad face, was an excellent Richard Kimball, often putting himself at risk to help others. Barry Morse played his dogged pursuer Inspector Gerard. The two-part series finale, in which Kimball finally catches up to the one-armed man, was the highest-rated TV show in history up to that point--millions were tuned in to watch and it was a great shared experience for the whole country.
In the sixties, Morse was eating in a restaurant with his wife in London. When finishing their food, he found a note under his plate, 'Kimbel's washing-up in the kitchens!'
That just sounds so infuriating to watch, if that show was around now. Every week the good guy *almost* catches the bad guy, but he barely gets away, then the good guy has to run and start all over again in the next episode. Back then, TV was all about returning to the status quo, without continuity, so the reruns could be watched in any order. Now everything is part of one long story, meant to be watched from the first episode to the last. There were no "spoilers" back then. I'm biased because I wasn't around in the '60s, but that old format sounds so frustrating to me, knowing he could never catch the guy until the final episode, without story progression.
It was an amazing show. 78 million people watched the last episode.
IIRC, Jim Carrey even utters the line "It wasn't me! It was the one-armed man!" in the movie The Mask. Had NO idea it might have been related to the Fugitive show/movie!!!
@@Subjectivity13 THE INCREDIBLE HULK TV series used the same format, with added big green rage monster.
"He should be conforting him, not questioning him." - Cassie, chief of the love police.
Yeah..that's not the job of the police...there job is to get the facts and the tough guy approach is effective in catching ppl in a lie and getting to the truth. I see Cassie doesn't get that bc of the being caught up in emotion but that doesn't help in intelligence gathering in determining if someone is a potential suspect.
@@shootingreal5945 dude... we know.
@@shootingreal5945 Problem is, cops are unreliable and often lazy and sometimes outright corrupt. They have an unnerving habit of getting false confessions out of people. And break the law constantly. And yet most people don't care, when really it should horrify you all. Cops are not your friend, do not talk to the cops, do not help the cops. Because if they feel like it they'll pin anything on you simply because you spoke.

There are plenty of hardworking family men who are cops..look pass your bias..I am myself a minority who has experienced racism from cops but i have also witness cops who are heroes.
ford : I thought you didnt care ? Jones : I don't (laughs) don't tell anybody ...gets me every time
One of the all-time great action movies. Perfectly conceived, written, paced, constructed and acted. The exchange between Ford and Jones in the tunnel is like a masterclass in economic storytelling. Impeccably crafted and highly exhilarating. I will never forget seeing this in the theater with my dad and the audience's audible reaction in the train scene. You are in for a ride, Cassie.
Incidentally, if you like this, you *really* need to watch the first DIE HARD.
3rd was better. but yeah start with 1 go to 3. you can watch 4 it isn't bad but 2 and 5 don't exist
I'm really surprised Tombstone has not come up in your brackets. One of the best movies of all time.
Westerns aren't very popular these days, it's a shame.
I’m your Huckleberry.
It's good pulp but it aint no Open Range.
Tombstone will answer your question about Wyatt Earp.
"Wyatt Earp" (1994) is better w/ Kevin Costner.
Saw this in the theater three times back in 1993. One of my all-time favorite thrillers. It's amazing how great this turned out considering they started filming it without a finished script. They literally wrote the movie as they were making it, sometimes right before they shot a scene.
It was supposed to be Richard Jordan as Nichols--I guess in a nod to _Logan's Run_
"Who's Wyatt Earp?"
Cassie, please, for the love of all that is holy and right in this world, please watch Tombstone. It's SOOOOO good.

@@leethunderhill7002 Say when!
@@bombomos Oh, make no mistake, it's not revenge he's after, it's a reckoning.
Love this movie. And Tommy Lee's speech when organizing the search for Harrison has been memed, rehashed and parodied SO much it's just legendary.
Thank you Cassie for doing a video reaction to one of my favorite films from the 90s! It’s also based on the amazing 1960s TV series of the same name.
(5:03) Defendants are allowed to give their own testimonies in a criminal trial, but they often don’t. This is because the burden of proof is on the prosecution, cross-examinations on the stand can be very brutal, and the defendant might not want to risk saying anything that could discredit his case or further incriminate himself. If Kimble did talk in that trial, that probably wouldn’t have made a difference. He needed to find the one-armed man, and get the evidence against him.
(7:56) You have to see the film Tombstone!
(8:03) I don’t think they knew Copeland was still alive at that point. Meanwhile Kimble was charged with murder and sentenced to death, which likely made him a priority.
(17:28-17:41) He already had one. That might look a little too suspicious in front of the cops.
(23:38) No, because Kimble is not a killer, so those guns have no use to him. Plus if Kimble was caught by police carrying guns that don’t belong to him, it could lead to additional charges. He had get rid of the guns, and put them in the most secure location he could find.
(24:01) To be fair. Kimble altered his appearance enough to where most people didn’t recognize him. All Sykes had to do was change his hairstyle and he looked different enough that you started questioning if he was the killer.
(27:58) That is so sweet, but I’m not sure that kind of ending would have fit the tone of the film.
For other amazing action thrillers from the 90s, you should totally watch Air Force One, Crimson Tide, and Speed.
"Who's Wyatt Earp".....just another reason to love Cassie. Even when she doesn't know, she's so cute and adorable.
I've cited The Fugitive as one of my favorite movies for years, based solely on how much I enjoyed it the one time I watched it, but this made me realize I'd forgotten SO much of the plot. Nice to rediscover it along with you!
Another excellent movie is “RANSOM” with Mel Gibson. Seriously. Probably one of the best movies I’ve ever seen, and very well done for a pg-13 movie.
Edge of Darkness & Blood Father were great too. I loved em anyway.
Great movie, but not available on digital!! Crazy
The Fugitive was a very popular TV show from ‘63 to ‘67. Girard was two steps behind Richard for four years. Good review.
Cas: *”On what authority!”*
Love your reviews!
I used to watch it whenever it was on. One of my favourites! I absolutely love the scene where Jones' character takes the handcuffs off of Richard's hands ❤️
The Fugitive has been one of my very favorite movies since it first came out. (I'm ancient) Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for doing what you do, so very well. All of your movie reactions are purely delightful to watch, and your kind and gentle spirit is refreshingly genuine. Please know you are appreciated for so many reasons and I will continue to enjoy your reactions for as long as you continue to watch movies. Thank you, Cassie.
Hear, hear!
I wanted to type something like this, but you summed it up perfectly. Thanks. I always enjoy her reactions.
This is such a great movie! I grew up in the Chicago suburbs and lived in the city proper for about 7 years. When this movie came out, it was so cool to see all the bits of Chicago that I knew personally! Also, many, if not all, the reporters in this movie were actual local newspaper and TV reporters. And I think a number of the cops had been actual Chicago cops at one time. Great reaction Cassie!!!
When I see my brother at family events, I'll give him a hug and whisper "You switched the samples..." and he'll respond "you never give up, Richard, you never give up."
I absolutely love the "sequel" to this film U.S. Marshals, featuring the same team chasing down another fugitive, only this time there's a much larger conspiracy at play.
It's less personal... at least in the first half, and there's more action, it's not the classic this movie is but if you want more i definitely recommend it.
US Marshalls was okay, but really that's mostly due to Tommy Lee Jones. You take him out of the equation, and the movie isn't even decent. This one is a great stand alone flick to me, just really smart, and really well made/acted from start to finish
One of the most interesting thing about US Marshals… Tommy Lee Jones shared the screen with both Wesley Snipes and Robert Downey Jr and “Jimmy Pants” Joe Pantoliano
The follow up to this movie with Wesley Snipes and Tommy Lee Jones reprising his character, U.S. Marshalls, is also really good.
I love watching you watch movies I love: you ask good questions, show such great empathy with the characters and add a nice twist to movies I like. And yes, it is scary how people can be framed and/or be found guilty while actually innocent. Thanks Cassie.
"How does this end?"
"I don't know what I want to happen."
Signs of a masterfully done movie right there. Keeps you on the edge of your seat and guessing until the end.
It bothers me that people only think of Star Wars or Indiana Jones for Harrison Ford.
By far some of his best work has been stand alone films:
The Fugitive
42
Air Force One
Regarding Henry
He's a fantastic actor.
Add in the Jack Ryan movies to that; Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger are two of my all time favorite Ford movies.
But his work in Regarding Henry was probably the most impressed I’ve been with him as an actor.
@@bryceweber3040 Oh heck yeah man, I can't believe I forgot to add those to the list. I personally liked Clear and Present Danger more than Patriot Games, but at least Patriot Games had Sean Bean, and he's always amazing.
Thanks for mentioning those. I agree that Regarding Henry was probably his best performance ever, although I think his role is 42 was equally impressive.
Have a good one.
Plus Presumed Innocent, please!
Witness
Maybe The Mosquito Coast?
@@attorneyrobert I thought of that one Robert, but I'll be honest. I've never seen it, so that's why I didn't mention it.
This was one of Harrison's best movies. My (late) Mom was thrilled they had made a movie from the old TV show she used to watch as a teen. Plus, she and I both were HF fans too. Glad you watched this one Cassie! 😊
The Fugitive had one of the greatest teaser trailers ever. I was like 13 when it came out and had just watched some of the TV series a few weeks prior to seeing the trailer in the theater. I kind of freaked out because I had just found out about it. Fun fact, the detective with the thick NYC accent and the mustache was a real NYC detective, and Harrison's limp was actually real because he damaged ligaments in his leg during the filming in the woods, he refused surgery so it would be real.
I saw this in the theater as a kid, still one of my favs to this day! Such a well done story (granted it's based off of an old tv show)
Which was based on a real case
Three things I learned from this reaction..
1) Cassie doesn’t know this is based on the classic tv series and has never heard of it.
2) Cassie has never heard of Wyatt Earp.
3) Cassie really REALLY loves Harrison Ford!
I saw this in the movies with a friend when I was 12. Still one of my favorite movies of all time.
A perfect movie to answer who Wyatt Earp is, would be Tombstone.
Cassie: Your editor is good! I picked up the exact story.. and I've seen the movie (a favorite all-time) and your edit/reaction tells the story very well!
This was a movie based on an excellent old television show.
I’m really enjoying watching your reactions, especially your later ones where you have built a really respectable body of movie knowledge, and can recognize actors, catch references, throw out movie quotes.
This is the record of our modern society, just as novels, paintings and poetry reflect previous generations.
I'm thrilled to see that you're enjoying the suspense genre. Rear Window definitely fits into that category too. Very excited to see your reaction! The Fugitive is one of my favorite films to watch with my dad. He introduced it to me when I was a teenager and instantly became an all time great for me. Harrison Ford is so easy to root for but Tommy Lee Jones(who won an Oscar for this role) steals the show. Kimble's intelligence and Gerard's restlessness make the story so engaging and exhilarating. If you see this movie on TV flipping through the guide, it's hard to resist putting it on. So good!
Cassie "Get into a crowd!"
HF gets into a crowd.
Cassie "Take your jacket off!"
HF takes his jacket off.
I love it when you do that in your videos! 😂😂😂
Cassie is clearly a fugitive on the run, hiding in plain sight on YT.
So happy to see you so relieved finally. This was a great movie indeed. Glad to have shared it with you Cassie. 🤗
If you like crime suspense mysteries, The Usual Suspects (1995) should be at the top of your list. Great reaction as always!
Highly overrated.
Awesome movie
LA Confidential is better.
@@thomast8539 LA Confidential is also highly overrated. But it’s better than Usual Sus lol.
Another excellent suspense thriller with Harrison Ford: "Frantic" about 5 years before this one. Love your reactions!
…like Sting, I’m tantric
Frantic is a very well made movie.
Sadly, made by the baby rapist, director. Coincidentally, a real life fugitive who actually did it.
'Presumed Innocent' too.
It gets so little attention and is so well acted.
One of the few films with Bonnie Bedelia (Culkin) from Die Hard, and it also has a small cameo role with a very young Timmy from Jurassic Park.
@@rohe4077 Yes that is true, but there is more to his life than that which few people seem to know about.
His heavily pregnant wife Sharon Tate and 4 friends were murdered at the beginning of the Manson family killing spree of 1969, less than a month after Apollo 11 landing on the Moon.
The crime in question occured 8 years later.
Supposedly he fled after making a plea deal with the prosecution that the judge rejected ONLY AFTER Polanski had already pled guilty to the offence - effectively taking away any option to make a case at trial and leaving him entirely at the mercy of the same judge/prosecution combo that tricked him into pleading guilty without a defense in the first place.
He fled to France where he was born and would have been deported to once his indeterminate prison term had ended.
So glad you've got Rear Window on your radar now -- it's a fave of mine and one of Hitch's best. A true classic.
"Tombstone" with Kurt Russell and Val Kilmer is a great film about the most famous part of the life of Wyatt Earp. Highly recommended.
Clearly he was already extremely famous before that given he moved to a brand new town and basically everybody already knew his name - including the mayor the minute he got off the train.
Thanks, butch
Kevin Kostner's Wyatt Earp is very good too and perhaps has more epic and bombast
@@andarporbuenosaires Thatversion is great too. It’s delves into Wyatt a little more.
@@mnomadvfx He’s referring to OK Corral as being the most famous thing about Earp’s life. Which undoubtedly, it is. There are ppl who have heard of OKCorral, and know it was a bloody shoutout, but couldn’t tell you the parties involved.
"They can be hero-doctors together." 🙂🙃🙂 I love your unflagging optimism.
This movie is one of my all-time favorites. It's like watching it for the first time again with you. Great job!
Great reaction cassie... Just letting you know they did make a sequel/spin off film called 'US Marshals' and it follows the further adventures of Sam Gerard,(Tommy Lee Jones) & his team as he tries to bring another fugitive to justice as well as keep him alive, who just may know a little too much...it also features Weasley Snipes (Blade, Expendables 3, Demolition Man) & Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man, Chaplin, Sherlock Holmes). Highly underrated and definitely worth a watch since you liked this one....
Julianne Moore was supposed to have a bigger role where they start a romance but it ended up being cut for time and keep the love ebetween Richard and his wife. Great movie.
This was before ‘Boogie Nights’, ‘Magnolia’ etc when she became really well known. When her name popped up in the opening credits, I was like “Wait, Julianne Moore is in this!?” 😂
Also, the guy playing Cosmo the Deputy Marshal (Joe Pantoliano) is the same guy best known for playing Cypher in The Matrix, it was funny seeing him with regular hair and a mo given I remembered him bald and with a goatee!
Hi Cassie, this film was based on a 1960`s weekly tv show I used to watch starring David Janssen. How you felt when he just evaded their pursuit, was almost every week for me at the time. I`m glad you enjoyed this film version, I first saw it in the late `90`s & I must admit they did a good job. There is a follow up film called (U.S. Marshals, 1998) based on the pursuit team not the good Dr., I think, you would enjoy that too.
This is one of my dad's all-time favorite movies! I remember when I was like about 11 or 12, he was so excited to sit down and show it to me for the first time.
Ikr. Dad loved this movie aswell :) Watched it with him plenty of times as a kid :)
I have been watching old movies with my 13 yo daughter and I am definitely adding this to the list, as she loved Double Jeopardy!
I gotta say... a MASSIVE kudos to your editor on this one. Brilliant job all the way. Oh and your rollercoaster of emotions in this was awesome (as usual). This movie is a gem that thankfully stands the test of time. If yer on the suspense trail (though this one IS hard to follow), I'd suggest Suspect (1987) starring Cher.
But as usual... WORKING GIRL, lol, I couldn't resist ;)
Yeah, they got all the main plot points.
@@donaldrack They did get all the main beats, all except (and I am really not 'holding' this against them, lol) but considering how close they came to keeping them 'all' in... they left out Tommy Lee giving that brilliant surprise side tilt of the head and mouthing some profanity (when Ford falls getting caught between the bullet proof glass doors shutting)... oh and the ever powerful "We got us a gopher!". But again, exemplary precise/editing.
"Can you just show me everyone clapping and apologizing to him?" - Cassie, this is something movies used to do more of (leave some details to the imagination), especially at the end credits roll. If you put it into perspective, and consider that the filmmakers wanted you to imagine the best possible ending according to you in particular, it makes you appreciate the story that much more. Today's films [read: audiences] require more complicated hand-holding unfortunately. Yet again, great video.
They leave it open so the optimist believe he gets the apology while the pessimist know everyone will still see him as guilty and nobody will hire him because of the bad rep.
This is my favorite video of yours yet, Cassie. It was fascinating to watch _The Fugitive_ from a woman's perspective. I think the objective for men would be to escape or solve the crime on our own. You wanted someone to believe Kimble or be his friend, which is actually helpful if escaping or solving a crime.
Pro tip: If you're ever trying to avoid detection, put something on your head, like Kimble does in the parade. It's amazing how difficult it is to identify someone if they have or had a head covering.
The Best two action/suspense thrillers that came out of the nineties were The Fugitive and Speed. The Fugitive won Tommy Lee Jones an Oscar for Best Supporting Role. The movie was also nominated for Best Editing, Best Picture, and Best Film Score. So I don't understand those who keep knocking this film.
As for Speed, I think suspense/action wise it's on a par with The Fugitive. It was nominated for best sound and best editing. It's the film where Keanu Reeves proved he could handle the action/hero role, and it's the movie that put Sandra Bullock on the map. It gives you three action sequences for the price of one, even up until the very very end. It would make a great reaction movie if you've never seen it, but for all the movies I see in these reaction videos (not just yours) the film is strangely never mentioned. I guess everybody's seen it. I find these types of movie reactions superior than a lot of movies that won oodles of awards.
Speed is NOT on her watched movies list which is shocking. Definitely a movie she'll enjoy!
I do like speed but that’s nowhere near on this level of film making
This is pure flawless art
Speed is just switch off brain action but still great
@@-M0LE Cassie would love speed. She will be on the edge of the bed the whole damn movie and it's got the revenge plot that hits her right in the feels just like the fugitive. It's not urgent but she should see it in the not too distant future

As soon as she said "wow hes such a good friend" I knew it was going to be a good reaction.
Who's Wyatt Earp? Who's Wyatt . . . oh yeah, I forgot you're Canadian.
Wyatt Earp was the most famous American old west lawman. He was a US marshall, in fact. He was also friends with Doc Holiday, the notorious outlaw gunfighter and dentist. Wyatt was involved in the infamous shootout at the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona in which he killed three members of an outlaw gang. There was a very popular movie made about him starring Kurt Russell. It's called Tombstone.
Tombstone, in my opinion, is the greatest western of all time
Thank you. The only person here who actually bothered explaining who he was instead of just suggesting Tombstone as if Wyatt Earp was some sort of fictional character.
I think the one of the most intense courtroom thrillers is "PRIMAL FEAR" with Richard Gere and an amazing performance by Edward Norton in his first film. I guarantee the end of the movie will knock you to the floor.
her head would explode 🤣
One of my fav movies of all time. Edward Nortons first major role and he was absolutely brilliant.
@@AgunziLFC did you see that guy who was arrested and pretended to be crazy. He acts like Edward Norton and rain man. It's so funny. It's on TH-cam. The title is... What Pretending to be Crazy looks like...
Great call, hope this one gets onto her list.
I adore this film but wish you hadn't told her the ending will knock her to the floor. Sets up an expectation so it won't be quite as huge a shock. She'll still love it, though.
The intensity of this movie is great. It really stands the test of time. Director Andrew Davis has some classics under his belt, and worked with Tommy Lee Jones on at least 3 that I know of. The Package, Under Siege, and The Fugitive.
Tommy Lee Jones was so good in this role, he won Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars. This movie cemented him as a viable leading man. We already knew about Harrison Ford.
I call The Fugitive a complete movie, and I don't understand why it's not reacted to more frequently. Another movie is The Untouchables with Kevin Costner, Sean Connery and Robert DeNiro. Both of these movies are based on real events and the popular TV-series that spawned from these events, so the hype was tremendous.
I love The Untouchables, it's a stylish gangster masterpiece from Brian DePalma. But calling it "based on real events" is stretch. Other than the fact that there were real people named Al Capone, Elliott Ness, and Frank Nitti and a city named Chicago, EVERYTHING else was a complete fabrication.
My mouth dropped when I saw this movie. I lived just down the block from where the bar Kimball makes the call. Pullman is a very historic neighborhood. You can count on one hand at that time how many movies showed anywhere on the far south side of Chicago.
Your reactions were adorable.
May I suggest watching one of my all time favorites in that genre - Rear Window. I saw it when it first came out (1954 - I was eleven years old) and even though it was shot on a Hollywood set, it still exudes the zeitgeist of certain NYC neighborhoods. More to the point, it is superb entertainment as it was directed by Alfred Hitchcock in one of his most successful pieces of work. I think James Stewart gave one of his best performances in that flick. Grace Kelly was soooo gorgeous! The supporting actors - Thelma Ritter, Wendel Corey, and Raymond Burr - gave excellent performances as well.
I lived in Manhattan for my first 29 years and the courtyard depicted in the movie could be typical of some in the west village (Greenwich Village) where I lived (Horatio Street) for a couple years when I was first married.
One of the best things about this movie is it doesn't make me hate Tommy Lee Jones. In fact, I kind of root for him. Not to catch Harrison Ford, but just because he's a good guy and he's good at what he does.
its the feeling that the only man that can catch Richard is the only one that can save him.
and that's where US Marshals comes in.
Despite the the guy who killed his wife, and the Doctor who set it all up, TLJ is really the antagonist to Kimball in this movie. The main story is him being on the run. So it's cool that the antagonist to the main character is not the bad guy though.
Movies like this make me realize how much I took for granted great films in the early to mid 90's. Not sure if it's been done here but The Devil's Own with Ford & Brad Pitt was amazing.
Great movie choice Cassie! Mystery thrillers need to make a comeback.
If you like Harrison Ford, you might like What Lies Beneath. Great thriller!
Great one!
She won't be happy!
critics and audiences hated it when it was in theatres..... i thought it was pretty good
What Lies Beneath is great!
That movie isn't that good...
One of my favorite movies! Back when the movie first was released I was watching Wheel of Fortune and guessed the answer before any of the letters were shown. It was "Harrison Ford in the Fugitive".
If she hasn’t watched it yet, I’d love to see Cassie react to “What Lies Beneath”.
Why people recommend so many crappy movies for her to watch. If she really has only seen chick-flicks, she should start from the (modern) classics. For example work your way down IMDb Top 250. Or all Oscar Best Picture winners. What Lies Beneath is neither, IMDb score a measly 6.6. Basically nothing under 7 is worth watching, and very few under 8 can be considered a classic
Also, what's the point of recommending horror and violent/gory movies to her, again, someone who formely saw just romcoms and chick-flicks. She's not gonna enjoy them, even if she pretends to. Why not recommend something proper, that isn't based on jump scares or mindless violence
yes, I think she would really enjoy that. It's one of the more interesting Harrison Ford films and the climax will have her climbing the walls. I think it would be a great choice because it's suspenseful but not overtly violent or gory. Might be a good one for her to watch during spooky season.
@@shredd5705 Oscar Best Picture winners often suck.
There are some that are great, but you have to be choosey to get those.
@@sandpiperr There's a difference between "The movie I thought should win, didn't win" and "Oscar Best Picture winners often suck". They almost never suck (if you really think that, you have limited intelligence and poor taste) although the best doesn't always win. IMDb score isn't infallible either, but IMDb top 250 is way better guide for meaningul movies, than random TH-cam recommendations. There's thousands and thousands of average movies with 6.6 score, movie with that low score is hardly a must-see. 6.6 = run of the mill "let's kill some time" movie
I remember first seeing this movie in my Criminal Law class. The Professor had spent decades in law enforcement prior to becoming an educator, and showed us this film to teach us about all the resources US Marshall’s had 🤯
I’m laughing at all the guys in disbelief that she didn’t know who Wyatt Earp was. 😂
I remember watching the TV series when I was a kid in the 60's. This was a great re imagining of the story. Harrison Ford is a fantastic actor. Love all his work, right back to the first thing I remember seeing him in - "Where Were you in 62". Your reactions are always great!
Yeah! It was must-watch TV in its day. Each week, Kimble tracked the one-armed man around the country, and Lt. Gerard tracked him.
Julianne Moore was the perfect character actor for this movie. A highly recognizable person who was an in control, take no crap Doctor, then out. This movie was based on the TV series of the 1960's of the same name, which I had seen as a kid. I enjoyed the movie version and Harrison was a great choice for the lead.
This was definitely the first movie I saw Julianne Moore in. She was an unknown at this point to most of the public. So no one would've really expected her to have a bigger role in the movie like Cassie did. I didn't even realize Jane Lynch was in it. I didn't know who she was the last time I saw this. Jeroen Krabbé played a James Bond villain before this, so that might have been a big clue that he was the villain in this to astute moviegoers.
She is one of my favorite actresses. It's time we give redheads some respect.
@@jedijones my first was The Big Lebowski haha, and obviously I’d watched Boogie Nights and Magnolia, so when the opening credits had her name pop up, I was like “Woah, Julianne Moore is in this!?”
Let's not forget "The Hand That Rocked The Cradle".
@Joeh1154
The Fugitive wasn't just based on an old TV series. The series was based on a real similar case; Dr. Sam Sheppard in Bay Village Ohio
Did you know that this was based ON A TV SERIES from the 1960s? And for many years, the series Finale, when the one-armed man is found, was the most watched episode in TV history.
Since she loves Harrison Ford so much I would love to see her watch "Air Force One".
Air Farce One is pretty bad. Why not see "Die Hard" first... an actually good movie that inspired the copycats. Ford has done so many bad movies also, nobody should watch a movie because a certain actor is in it. And if one insinsts on watching action-thriller with Ford in it, the two Jack Ryan movies he made are way better than Air Farce One.
It's not an action movie, but Harrison Ford's best performance I know is in Regarding Henry as a man struggling to reconstruct his life and identity after losing his memory. A tear-jerker and a masterpiece.
I need to watch that again.
Lol. "Who's "Wyatt Earp"???
Cassie, you crack me up!😆😂
Who’s “Wyatt Erap” lol. God I feel old. I know who he is and I’m a Canadian. It’s fun to watch people reaction to these old great movies. Great reaction!!
Given the comment section, most people here seem to think he's a character from a movie.
