Fuoco assassino 2

Chicago Fire Department arson investigator Sean McCaffrey (Joe Anderson) is the son of the late Lieutenant Stephen "Bull" McCaffrey (Kurt Russell in the first movie). His uncle Brian McCaffrey (William Baldwin) is the Deputy District Chief of the Office of Fire Investigation. Lone wolf Sean is assigned new partner Maggie Rening (Alisha Bailey). Ronald Bartel (Donald Sutherland) is an old arsonist in prison.

The fire special effects are a big part of the first movie. In this one, they are using bad CGI with the fire scenes. Some scenes are bad. One is good. Obviously, this is a cheaper production and they can't afford top of the line special effects. As for the actors, Joe Anderson seems to be a fine second tier actor. I don't know why Billy Baldwin isn't the lead. He could be the grizzled old veteran which suits the premise of getting stuck with a newbie. Donald Sutherland has limited screen time. The investigation is just too slow. They do need a mystery figure for Sean to chase. I'm not really following the fire stuff. This is not good.

I enjoyed the movie didn't expect it to grab my attention cause im a vintage person i love the first backdraft it did creep me out a little to see how much william baldwin looks alot like alec these days lol....donald's character just as creepy as ever works thou and sean's past haunts him to a point but all around not terrible to watch i loved the references to the first one throughout ignore all the lame asses that cant grasp at what they filmed if you loved the first one give this on a try and ignore all the others and watch it for yourself!

Interesting attempt at a follow up story line to the original fire family. Decent casting except for the female firefighter. Donald Sutherland is still creepily good. The soundtrack is excellent,.The excessive f-bombs ruined the main character for me.

This sequel as most of them do did not live up to it's prequel.

It was ok and i had no trouble in watching it once but it's a movie i have no desire to watch again whereas the original movie i could watch again right now.

If you have a couple of hours to spare then watch it to relax and pass time but don't expect to be excited and on the edge of your chair.

Make sure there are no extinguishers around your house too as you may be tempted to use them on your tv in order to stop watching this movie.

This film is interesting to me because it's the first time I watch a film about arson investigation. I think it is suspenseful. I enjoyed it.
