Small Strange Bird: Sep 22, 2006; Merci, chaton!

Like the original Die Hard, The Fugitive was made in the style of what Joel Silver called "exaggerated reality" - it's unlikely that it could happen in real life (where Kimble would have been killed in the train crash and McClane fallen to his death down the ventilation shaft, if he hadn't been shot before reaching it), but the film was made well enough to let you suspend your disbelief with no trouble. Now, though, the need to keep one-upping what's come before and make the action ever more extreme means that if The Fugitive were made today, it'd probably be as ridiculous as this.
