The Fugitive Harrison Ford, Tommy Lee Jones
Warner Home Video, 2001
perfect balance
+ Silence on the lam + One of the most suspenseful movies ever
I watched this for the umpteenth time while exercising. Let me tell you, it was effective. Between taking my mind off what I was doing, and raising my adrenaline levels, it made for some intense workouts.
It was based on the TV series, which I never saw, so I don't have a basis for comparison.
