Backdraft

Films on Trial

Backdraft is in the hot seat this week. Does it flame high or give us heartburn?

Alex and Gav defend, saying this is the definitive film about firefighters that has incredible practical effects and a solid cast. Dave points to a weak plot, poor script and unrealistic action that ultimately makes it go up in smoke.

All this with a quiz about firefighters in films and an off-the-cuff impression of Donald Sutherland.
