Alex McLevy AV Club Jul 9, 2019
This is the kind of brainless but trashily enjoyable film that would suit the bill when you're looking for something to watch hangover on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Go to Full Review

Unfortunately, there is no reason to care about anyone onscreen other than nostalgia for a 30-year-old movie that no one likes or remembers. Go to Full Review

So yeah, maybe there's just enough here to make a watch worthwhile for fans of the original - but I would wait until it hits a streaming service you're already paying for... Go to Full Review

Backdraft 2 is a lot of investigating and interviewing but so was the original. Go to Full Review

Apr 27, 2019 Backdraft 2 Is Gonna Be Fun Can't Wait For It To Come Out
Apr 27, 2019 Contrived daddy issues combine with mediocre writing and a formulaic plot to deliver a forgettable nothing burger.
Apr 24, 2019 Horrible! First off most of its filmed in Canada. Sean has a beard? Really? Firefighters can't have beards with the SCBA masks. Piss poor acting weak plot and it was pathetic. Don't waste your time. Why they let them make this and associate it with Backdraft is beyond me. See more
