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.

Backdraft has some of the raw filmmaking excitement that has been missing from Howard's recent work.
September 10, 2015
Ron Howard's film is one of smoke-eaters, crispers, and torches... and it bestows a renewed respect on a profession all too often taken for granted.
February 05, 2008
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).

Absolutely fantastic setpieces strung along an absolutely dimwitted script.

Backdraft is sure to do for fire what The Poseidon Adventure did for water.

Ron Howard popcorn-muncher is sappy, not smokin'.

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

Backdraft may not be a very good movie, but it sure is great entertainment.

...a top-notch thriller trapped within a poorly-paced and needlessly bloated piece of work...

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