Before allowing you to play the movie, the DVD of “the Fugitive” forces you to watch a five minute reflection on the film which was mostly the director struggling to talk to a senile Tommy Lee Jones over speaker phone. An excerpt:
Director: Tommy…Tommy can you hear me?
TLJ: (mumbles)
Director: I’m calling about “The Fugitive”
TLJ: what?
Director: The movie. That we did together. Remember?
TLJ: (silence)
Did Harrison Ford jump off that dam? Yes. Did Tommy Lee Jones’ police crew each have a distinctive sassy personality? Yes, and there were like five of them.
Grade: B
