Review of Three Fugitives (1989) by Jay Carr for Boston Globe — 22 Apr 1995
This obvious attempt to tap into the same audience that flocked to THREE MEN AND A BABY (indeed, it could have been titled "Two Men and a Toddler") is about as lifeless as they come. Not only is THREE FUGITIVES a scene-for-scene remake of Veber's French original, it is actually shot for shot the same film.
Not surprisingly, the resulting film feels mechanical, despite engaging performances from Short and Nolte.
