Watch Backdraft Movie with Full HD Format

The sons of a Chicago fireman who gave his life in the performance of his duties, firefighting brothers Kurt Russell and William Baldwin carry their lifelong sibling rivalry into their work. Russell is convinced that Baldwin hasn't got what it takes to remain in the fire department. Baldwin is transferred to a "safe" assignment, assisting arson investigator Robert DeNiro, who is trying to make sense of a series of fires involving an oxygen-induced ball of fire called a backdraft. The investigation reveals a link between corrupt alderman J. T. Walsh and imprisoned pyromaniac Donald Sutherland. The trail of evidence leads Baldwin to suspect that his brother Russell, a much-decorated hero, may be the "inside" man setting up the arsons. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Review For Backdraft

Backdraft has some of the raw filmmaking excitement that has been missing from Howard's recent work.
Owen Gleiberman-Entertainment Weekly

Visually, pic often is exhilarating, but it's shapeless and dragged down by corny, melodramatic characters and situations.
Variety Staff-Variety

Visually speaking, the film does pretty well with fire-as-spectacle, less well with everything else (Howard tends to trot out fuzzy-toned Spielbergian backlighting on any pretext).
Jonathan Rosenbaum-Chicago Reader

The fire sequences are stunning, and the build-up to them, complete with blaring sirens and bellowed conversations, has an aggressive immediacy.
-Time Out

The spectacular fire sequences, which must have been hellish to film, are powerfully enveloping on screen, thanks especially to the eerie effect of the title.
Janet Maslin-New York Times

Backdraft is sure to do for fire what The Poseidon Adventure did for water.
Rita Kempley-Washington Post

Manipulative? Yes. But damn, citywide funerals, a cranked score, and some Baldwin blue steel redemption poses clears away any irksome storytelling dissatisfaction.
Brian Orndorf-BrianOrndorf.com

Ron Howard popcorn-muncher is sappy, not smokin'.
Heather Boerner-Common Sense Media

Backdraft may not be a very good movie, but it sure is great entertainment.
David Cornelius-DVDTalk.com

The film exploits Chicago's terrain of ethnic neighborhoods, political turf, and glorious modern architecture, but it has trouble when it comes in close to the personal level.
Kathleen Maher-Austin Chronicle

It's spectacular, yes, but that's not all. Not only do the firefighting scenes evoke a feeling of gritty authenticity, but the fire itself really does seem to be alive.
-TV Guide's Movie Guide

An extremely old-fashioned tale about heroic firefighters (rival siblings...) with some good special effects, this is a typical Ron Howard picture in its middlebrow sensibility and sentimentality.
Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com

simultaneously overblown and threadbare
Christopher Null-Filmcritic.com

Exciting firefighter adventures with all-star cast.
Steve Crum-Kansas City Kansan
