Review of Backdraft (1991) by Mary D — 30 Sep 2018

I disagree with the pro critics. This IS a deep film and the acting is magnificent. Backdraft not only has great special effects; it also has character development and profound moments. This is one of those rare movies that stands the test of time.

I have probably watched it 6-7 times. I always cry at the end. I don't know where Backdraft falls in my top 50 films of all time but it definitely belongs in that group.
