Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Standard, innocuous, and incendiary this rather enjoyable Action Movie is light entertainment with a soft R rating. Pretty tame as these things go, it has some death defying dumb stunts and the whole thing is a notch above a TV Movie and can be quite enjoyable in a humdrum sort of way.If you don't expect your leading Actor to act or can tolerate a script that is dampened by a standard re-write of a glutted genre, then settle in for a Movie that doesn't ask much and is a jump into a not so hot Movie, but it doesn't leave you cold either.William Forsythe (has he ever disappointed) once again is a force to be reckoned on screen and steals the show with his Evil stare and detached dementia. This bad guy and the raging inferno are the reasons to catch this when you are in the mood for some pizza and beer or cheese and wine, but keep an eye on the fireplace or the fondue.

Holy Crap. Howie Long should be promoted to Master Actor. He is so good at expressing his emotions. He should teach a class about emotions at a major college. A major college about human emotions. He is a vortex, that drags all of his surrounding actors and co-workers into his world. The drama in this movie is incredible as well. The whole "firestorm" element pulls you to the edge of your seat and then drops you on your face. I wish I could throw an axe like Howie Long. When the escaped convicts pretended to be Canadian, I wasn't sure whether they were Canadian or American. And when the Bird watcher stated how she had Marine training, I could see how perfect a match those two little love birds were. I really love how the whole plot was summarized in about 10 minutes during the entire feature, this allowed for more Howie Long content. This was an incredible movie. I would recommend it to anyone. Except to pregnant women. This movie has a few side effects such as premature birth, diarrhea, and drilling your eyes out with a jackhammer. I would also recommend Fire Down Below (Steven Seagal). If I could make one wish for anything in the whole world, it would be for Howie Long to restart(or start) his film career.

Jesse Graves (Howie Long) and Wynt Perkins (Scott Glenn) are firemen from a special force dedicated to extinguish fire in forests. Randall Alexander Shaye (Wylliam Forsythe) is a criminal who stole thirty-seven millions dollars and is in jail. He organizes his escape putting fire in the forest and working as a fireman volunteer in the prison. After some crimes and betrayals, he and three other bandits try to escape through the forest, where they meet the ornithologist Jennifer (Suzy Amis). Pretending they are firemen, they bring Jennifer with them as an `insurance policy'. Meanwhile, Jesse is in the forest trying to rescue them. This is another average and full of clichés action movie. William Forsythe acts well as a sadistic criminal, but most of the plot is so ridiculous that makes laugh. Situations like Jennifer trading the position with Jesse on the motorcycle, or Jennifer putting Jesse's knee in the right position, or Randall with an axe in the neck in one scene and fighting in the next one. What about capsize a boat like Jesse does? Therefore, a forgettable action movie. My vote is five.

For all of you who hate this movie, you are missing out. Stop thinking too hard. I enjoy a deep, intelligent thought provoking movie but for pure entertainment i like to turn to the likes of Firestorm because it is hilarious, pure camp. Howie Long's performance makes any of Segal's look Oscar deserving. The dialog is stupid, the action hilariously unbelievable and the story is laughable, and thats what its supposed to be.
