Andrew Davis is a competent director for action and suspense and he demonstrated it especially in the nineties by making excellent vehicles for Steven Segal (his best era) and giving us a film with a frenetic pace full of tension and with an ending that surprises if we take taking into account the series on which it is based. Leaving this aside, it must be noted that a good director, if he relies on a good cast and a story known to everyone (that of the Fugitive), is impossible for him to do anything wrong. In this case it has all the elements to offer entertainment and excitement. It is a film that has class although the weakness is Ford's character who is surprisingly capable of anticipating anything and solving any problem just as Neeson would later do in Taken. The improbability of this drops the film two points; Dr. Kimble is a doctor, not a Green Beret.
