Harrison Ford

Aside from the Barbenheimer phenomenon, the summer movie season has been a little odd, with many high-profile franchise entertainments underperforming. Included in that was Indiana Jones and the Dial of the Destiny, which hasn’t exactly …

The Fugitive is a phenomenal action film starring Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones. It follows Dr. Richard Kimble (Ford), who has been falsely accused of murdering his wife. After escaping from prison in a freak …

One of Michael Douglas’s best roles is as D-Fens in Falling Down. He has the charisma and devil-may-care attitude that attracts people. When the movie came out in 1993, he was right in his prime with Fatal Attraction and Basic …

Harrison Ford is the beloved American President, James Marshall, in Air Force One. Glenn Close plays Vice President Kathryn Bennett who uses all her resources to save the president and his family on the titular plane. …

I’m on a Jack Ryan kick lately and nothing satisfies my craving more than Harrison Ford in that role. Patriot Games is the first of two Jack Ryan adventures that Ford embarks on. The second, Clear …

Harrison Ford only starred in two Jack Ryan films — Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger — but he defined the character with those performances. Ryan wasn’t a spring chicken in military intelligence, but he certainly was …

Brad Pitt’s performance in The Devil’s Own is good. I think his Irish accent is melodious and I enjoy listening to it. Not being Irish myself, I can’t speak to the authenticity of it, but I …

I recently finished a deep dive on Sean Connery. Over the course of eighteen months, I sat down and watched EVERY Sean Connery film. I wrote about what I learned and decided to cap it …

About eighteen months ago I had an idea. “What if I watched a Sean Connery movie tonight?”, I thought. Then I had an even better idea; “What if I watched every Sean Connery movie?”. That thought spawned …

When reading about Cowboys & Aliens, you would think it was perhaps one of the most ridiculous movies made in 2011. Then again, watching it may make you think that, too. Yet, it’s one of …

When a film is labeled as “classic”, there is a certain something about it. Entertaining and inspiring multiple generations of audiences, its success goes far beyond the initial response from moviegoers. Unfortunately, this sometimes inspires …

I wasn’t planning on seeing The Call of the Wild (2020) this year. Harrison Ford seemed out of place and the CG dog seemed like an abomination. Plus, I’d seen behind-the-scenes shots of Harrison Ford petting a …

Blade Runner (1982) sure had a bleak view of what November 2019 would look like. Then again, that’s what neo-noir science fiction tends to do. Thankfully, Ridley Scott’s dark version of the future is far from …

Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan series is a beloved franchise among book lovers and film connoisseurs alike. Ryan — a witty yet slightly bumbling CIA analyst — is a surprisingly relatable character. The action is well-paced …

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade turns 30 this summer. It’s still hailed as one of Spielberg’s most fun films and the perfect end to an iconic trilogy (that Crystal Skull thing was a mass …

When the Titanic fell into the ocean in 1912, the ship and her passengers became part of our cultural history. In 1997, writer/director James Cameron retold the story of Titanic through the eyes of doomed lovers …

At some point in time we’ve all seen a stereotype of autism on TV series like The Big Bang Theory and Bones. It’s the trope of the socially awkward, slightly (or very) obsessive compulsive character …

Until a few days ago, I probably was in the minority of movie buffs who hadn’t watched Blade Runner. For whatever reason I decided it was time to watch the Ridley Scott’s classic after years …

It’s been a stagnant five to six months since the release of Denis Villeneuve‘s Blade Runner 2049. It’s quite evident that its impact has only reached a small esoteric union of film fans. It hurts …

With Blade Runner 2049 coming out this weekend, it’s a perfect time to take a look back at Harrison Ford‘s filmography and see which of his films stand out as some of the best.  This will be …

The next point of discussion brings MovieBabble into a new medium.  Ladies and gentlemen, I’m happy to announce the beginning of the MovieBabble YouTube page with the first video of many.  This video will be a …

While many have tried, many have failed to capture the magic that Steven Spielberg’s Raiders of the Lost Ark contained when it hit theaters in 1981.  The film is beloved by many and holds a …
