The second half turned into a case-solving, it really made me stunned how good the first half was. The two-time duel on the stairs and the flame effects are all right...

In the Hollywood movies of the early 1990s, in fact, after the opening five seconds, you know what to do in the next five minutes. The young son watched his father die in the rescue, and then grew up and took the same path. I think this film is still moving, brothers, family, work, love, this is what everyone experiences every day, how to resolve the difficulties is the hardest thing, and sometimes even sell one's own soul. The two brothers have different personalities, and have different...

More successful career-themed films. The special effects, suspense, plot advancement and emotional rendering are good, firefighters fight against arsonists, and arsonists fight against the entire physique. The overall story is simple, direct and meaningful, and worth...

The design of the flame scene is really impeccable, and the soundtrack of Hans Zimmer is also atmospheric and tragic, but unfortunately it did not capture the great spirit, limited to the family emotion between brothers! But the combined suspense plot is also very...

Definitely a visual blockbuster from the 90s. There is a good beginning. All the main characters are established through the fire, and the characters are very distinct. After that, the story begins to move closer to a suspense film. Tracking down the arsonist was supposed to be a new story angle, but it was taken apart from the two protagonists' brothers, which seemed cumbersome. There is also the line of Robert De Niro seeking help for the imprisoned arsonist. No matter how you look at it, it...

It should be the earliest movie about firefighting. It's a purely commercial film with good quality and it's worth...

Not enough fire, not enough sensationalism, mainstream heroism, maybe I watched too many movies that paid tribute to this later, but now I think this is not outstanding...

Donald 'Shadow' Rimgale: In a word, Brian, what is this job all about?
Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: Fire.
Donald 'Shadow' Rimgale: It's a living thing, Brian. It breathes, it eats, and it hates. The only way to beat it is to think like it. To know that this flame will spread this way across the door and up across the ceiling, not because of the physics of flammable liquids, but because it wants to. Some guys on this job, the fire owns them, makes 'em fight it on it's level, but the only way to truly kill it is to love it a little. Just like Ronald.

Donald 'Shadow' Rimgale: So stop me if I got this wrong. Now the fire is almost out, you're upstairs on the unburned floor checking for heat, is that correct? And you've been told by your Battalion Chief, your Captain and by me not to do nothin', right? Not to do nothin' until ordered. That's correct, right?
Candidate: Yes, sir.
Donald 'Shadow' Rimgale: Ok. But now the itch starts. The 'Glory Boy' flash starts. 'Hey, I'm a hero. Heroes don't just stand around.' You can tell me, that's what it was, wasn't it?
Candidate: Yes, sir.
Donald 'Shadow' Rimgale: So you punched out a window for ventilation. Was that before or after you noticed you were standing in a lake of gasoline?
[shouting]
Donald 'Shadow' Rimgale: Was that BEFORE OR AFTER you noticed you were standing in a lake of GASOLINE, YOU IDIOT?
Candidate: Before, sir.
Donald 'Shadow' Rimgale: You could have burned or killed or crispened half that company! To say nothing of the fact that you wrecked the physical evidence that I use to prove that it's arson, and you know how goddamned hard it is to determine the cause of these fires! Now you go home and you think about that!
