Director: Andrew Davis

Another classic film for the letter F and a fan favorite, too. Harrison Ford vs. Tommy Lee Jones. Can Ford find his wife's real killer and prove to Jones that he didn't murder her? Will Jones even care? This wild chase across Chicago is fun to watch and definitely sucks you into the compelling storyline. Ford's character is the kind of wronged good-guy you cheer for. And, as we discovered, he's the perfect fugitive: quick and nimble with a medical degree. He runs quick, thinks quick, and can fix his own wounds. Perfect.
There are some great cameos in here as well. Julianne Moore as a doctor who spots him in the hospital. Jane Lynch as a former colleague of his. And Neil Flynn (Janitor on Scrubs) who plays a Transit Cop, has one line, then gets shot and killed on the train. Good stuff.
Rewatched this not too long ago, it's still great. Though for the record I don't think they count as cameos if the actors weren't anybody at the time they Sid the movie.
