Um thriller sólido cuja principal desvantagem é a falta de um protagonista tão forte como Harrison Ford no seu antecessor O Fugitivo. Mas será que ele é assim tão necessário aqui, uma vez que desfrutamos completamente dos agentes fixes da equipa de Tommy Lee Jones? Não é nenhum milagre, mas não me aborreceu nem por um segundo.

Awesome sequel to The Fugitive, different but good, and Tommy Lee Jones in a chicken costume is great ;-).

A pretty good action ride that doesn't need to be ashamed of itself even when compared to The Fugitive, which is, let's face it, a class better. Andrzej Bartkowiak's cinematography is fantastic and the low-angle shots are truly not spared, just like the solid action music by Jerry Goldsmith. The highlight of the film is undoubtedly the exhilarating shootout in the cemetery. Tommy Lee Jones practically repeats his Oscar-winning role, and Sam Gerrard once again has that essential ingredient, charisma.

A follow-up to the 1993 film The Fugitive, where Harrison Ford is absent but Tommy Lee Jones reprises his role as Sam Gerard, now taking the lead as the chief investigator. The supporting cast is also noteworthy; while Snipes was rather average, I was pleasantly surprised by Robert Downey Jr., who played an intriguing character with remarkable ease. However, the story doesn’t offer anything new, and at many points, it felt like the screenwriters were struggling with their creation, leading to a sluggish result. I expected a far more thrilling experience with adrenaline-pumping scenes at every turn, but the film didn’t deliver. I don’t understand the extravagant budget; as a TV film, it would be considered quality work, but for something costing 60 million dollars, it’s truly incomprehensible. Nevertheless, since I appreciate Jones as an actor and his charismatic character was one of the few redeeming aspects, the film set a certain bar. But believe me, it’s not very high, and plenty of other productions have comfortably surpassed it. I give it 58%.
