This flick had so much potential but as far as I am concerned it was ruined because it ended up being nothing more than a weak remake of "The Fugitive" . This movie woulda been a lot better had the "Fugitive" that was getting chased was guilty--the escape didn't help--this guy escapes from a plane that "accidentally crashes" just as Kimble escaped from a bus that "accidentally crashes" IMHO they should have let this movie stand on it's own--but instead they made something that is nothing more than a retread of the first movie--and less imaginative at that.

It was also ruined because of Murder of Newman at Old folks home- Thats when I've left the theater and got my money back.

Yeah, they should not have killed Newman...It did put a downer on the rest of the film.
