Nadine Salakov U.S. Marshals is another example of how sequels should be done, it has a great "police hunting down a fugitive" plot with realistic performances, perfect directing and brilliant editing. It is similar to "The Fugitive" but not an exact carbon copy.U.S. Marshals is fast-paced, has great colleague chemistry, and has a shocking twist.

pc95 While not an awful movie, "US Marshals" feels a little bit derivative and worn out. It follows the grand footprints of it's technically better and more gripping older sibling, "The Fugitive". While Tommy Lee Jones sparkled and stole the show in the earlier film, he is the focus of this newer installment. His comic relief in Marshals becomes muted, and storyline is rehashed. Wesley Snipes co-stars as the newer "Fugitive" and much of the movie is by-the-numbers. The drama and mystery is easily guessed unfortunately. The music too is tedious. However you could do a lot worse with Jones keeping many scenes afloat and in-command. Maybe worthwhile if you like Jones. Robert Downey Jr. has a lower profile role especially compared to newer movies we've seen him in. 6/10

David Love This is the film that Robert Downey Jr said was "possibly the worst action movie of all time." I think he's wrong. He plays Special Agent Royce, against Wesley Snipes' Mark Sheridan and in the company of Tommy Lee Jones' Sam Gerard, who steals every scene he is in. Maybe Downey was a bit jealous.There's lots that is good about the film: the camera-work and the editing and the music, which is unobtrusive, as it should be. So credit to Andrjez Bartkowiak, who's been active since 1975, Terry Rawlings, who has been in films since 1957, and Jerry Goldsmith, who has been doing this stuff since 1954! Sometimes experience shows. Stuart Baird, in a rare outing as director also brings a wealth of experience in holding the whole thing together.The plot was too complex for me to take in on one viewing. This may be one of those films you need to see twice to piece things together.For me, I struggle a bit with Wesley Snipes. I know he has a big following but I just don't warm to him. His relationship with his girlfriend played by Irene Jacob, is unconvincing. It doesn't help that Jacob does not seem entirely comfortable with the English language, though she does look gorgeous.Overall, good film. Almost great. Worth a viewing.

TopperHarley29 This is more of a spin-off than a sequel to The Fugitive because it focuses on Tommy Lee Jones' character and the U.S. Marshals which actually isn't a bad idea for a movie. It doesn't have what made The Fugitive good and to the people who say it brings nothing new to the action genre well, it's not supposed to. It's not meant to be groundbreaking it is just a popcorn flick that was meant to entertain and it works. It should have been a box office success, but it wasn't. Just like the first movie I thought it was a bit too long and could've been a bit shorter, but it's just a minor complaint. If you're looking for some cheap entertainment then this is a good choice.
