This is the Anniversary Edition of a terrific film - Backdraft. It was filmed in Chicago!! Two brothers serve as firemen and as siblings, bicker quite a bit. Kurt Russel plays the older brother of William Baldwin who is the younger brother in this terrific movie. This movie portrays the devastation of fires - great detail. The firemen are experiencing a large volume of Arson and they need to figure out what is happening. The brothers become closer during this episode. There is one funny scene where the younger brother (William Baldwin) rescues a female manequin. Boy do they razz him! This Anniversary Edition includes two discs with many bonus features. A great item to add to your collection!

I bought this movie because my husband is a firefighter. He dressed up at Halloween as a hurt firefighter. He won second place they called him an injured fireman from backdraft. I have seen the movie and love it but he has never seen it. I bought this as a christmas present. Great movie love to watch it over and over.

t's weird to think that when I went to see "Home Alone" in the theaters, "Backdraft" was advertised right before the movie came on. The whole thing is a little grimmer than we usually expect from Ron Howard. It focuses on mutually hostile brothers Stephen (Kurt Russell) and Brian McCaffrey (William Baldwin), both firefighters in Chicago having to put aside their differences to fight an arson outbreak.

True, it doesn't really sound like much of a plot, but Howard knows how to keep everything going. Stephen is the sort of guy with a bad attitude whom you can't help but respect. Brian mainly shows that there was once a time when Alec Baldwin's brothers could act. As for the climax, that is really something that is likely to shock you royally. But don't get me wrong. This is a good movie. Maybe not any kind of masterpiece, but worth seeing nevertheless. Above all, it's not a disaster movie (the less said about "The Towering Inferno" the better). Also starring Robert DeNiro, Donald Sutherland, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Scott Glenn, Rebecca DeMornay and J.T. Walsh.

I really like this box set it has alot of behind the scenes and thats awesome!There was some very interesting times they show you they had while making this film. It looks like a very good time had by all.

Very quick shipment excellant to deal with a pleasure no hassles no problems. Good Communications an real asset to EBAY Thanks for the purchase I look forward to dealing with you again

This is and action thriller about the adventurous lives of professional firefighters. Kurt Russell and William Baldwin star as two feuding firefighter brothers who must set aside their personal difference in order to survive the burning churning infernos set by a maniacal arsonist.

This is a very, very good movie to watch. This anniversary edition is great because it has extras to show how the movie was made, and the movie is remastered to have better quality when watching it on the TV.

The love that dvd has many features, like: the Ron Howard introduction, deleted scenes, how the actors were brought together, and real-life stories from real-life firefighters. I decided to buy the dvd because it was a great price for a great movie.
