Watch U.S. Marshals

U.S. Marshals is a 1998 action thriller film directed by Stuart Baird and starring Tommy Lee Jones, Wesley Snipes, and Robert Downey Jr. It is a sequel to the 1993 film The Fugitive and follows U.S. Marshals as they search for a fugitive who has gone into hiding. The film begins with a plane full of prisoners headed to a new maximum security prison. Among the prisoners is Mark Sheridan (Wesley Snipes), a former government operative who was erroneously accused of murdering two of his colleagues. As the plane takes off, an inmate posing as a guard causes chaos on board and causes the plane to crash.

When the U.S. Marshals are called in to apprehend the escapees, they soon realize that Mark Sheridan is not like any of the other prisoners. He is intelligent, skilled, and knows how to stay hidden. Deputy Marshal Sam Gerard (Tommy Lee Jones), who was the lead investigator in the case against Sheridan, is tasked with finding him again.

As the search drags on, it becomes clear that there is more to the case than meets the eye. The Marshals discover a web of corruption and deceit that involves the government officials who were the very people who originally charged Sheridan with the crime. They must also contend with Sheridan's skills and intelligence as he continues to evade capture.

At the same time, special agent John Royce (Robert Downey Jr.) is brought in to assist with the case. A cocky and arrogant man, Royce believes that he can outsmart Sheridan and the Marshals. But as he delves deeper into the case, he realizes that things are not as they seem and must choose between doing his job and doing what is right.

As the story unfolds, the Marshals and Sheridan engage in a dangerous game of cat and mouse that takes them across the country. With time running out and more people getting hurt, the Marshals must rely on their skills, training, and instincts to catch Sheridan before he can disappear for good.

U.S. Marshals is a thrilling and intense film that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. The performances of Jones, Snipes, and Downey Jr. are all excellent, bringing depth and complexity to their respective characters. The action sequences are well-executed and exciting, while the story itself is compelling and engaging.

Overall, U.S. Marshals is a worthy follow-up to The Fugitive and a great standalone film in its own right. It is a must-see for action and thriller fans alike.
