Editorial Review:
An ultimately futile attempt to make lightning strike twice, this so-called spinoff from 1993's blockbuster The Fugitive avoids the label of "sequel" by forging ahead without the first film's star, Harrison Ford. The idea is to showcase the return of Tommy Lee Jones in his Oscar-winning role as tenacious U.S. Marshal Sam Gerard, this time testing his mettle against a covert government operative (Wesley Snipes) accused of murdering two secret service attachés. Unfortunately, Jones and the entire cast have been trapped in a rambling plot, and the underdog status that made Ford such a compelling hero is sacrificed to an evenly matched and eventually tiresome game of cat and mouse, with a villain whose identity is far too predictable. With no dramatic buildup and several superfluous characters to distract its focus, the film's momentum plays out like a rote exercise compared to the high stakes of the earlier film. --Jeff Shannon
U.S. Marshals [Region 2] Reviews:
Great Movie 
2008-06-09 - Great Movie! I do NOT know why I had never seen it before now.
Too much talk over 
2008-02-28 - US Marshals is a great movie in my opinion. This edition has the director talking nonstop throughout the whole movie. I couldn't hear the actors because of the director's comments. This fact ruined the movie for me.
USMarshals 
2008-02-26 - The Video was very entertaining. I saw the movie a while ago and wanted to
add it to my collection.
Great Action Flick 
2007-08-14 - "Get yourself a Glock, and get rid of that nickel-plated sissy-pistol."
Tommy Lee Jones.
Why? 
2007-07-12 - I hated the movie, because they gave Wesley Snipes a white girl friend in the movie!
I could live without that BS in live and in the movies!
