Ratings and reviews

Undoubtably the best firefighter movie ever made, then again undoubtably one of the best movies ever made PERIOD. Ron Howard did a phenomenal job directing it and Kurt Russell did an amazing job as well. This is one of my favorite movies of all time.

In a word... Phenomenal! As mentioned, Ron Howard's directing, the story line, the performances of an all-star cast including Ken Russell, Donald Sutherland, William Baldwin, Scott Glenn, and Robert DeNiro. Now 30+ years old but it's exciting to watch everytime. You'll be "burning" to see it again & again.

So much action , drama , sex appeal , and two busted mercedes benz windows lol ... Dont park in front of a fire hydrant !!! If you like this watch Chicago Fire this fall on NBC youll love it
