4.0 out of 5 stars HEROIC HOWIE Mar 5 2004
By Michael Butts TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
Sports stars turned actors have never been serious threats at the Academy awards, and big Howie Long is certainly no exception. However, with his buff bod, icy blue eyes and a hint of malevolent humor, he acquits himself quite nicely in this blazing adventure. He plays the news fire chief of the Smoke Jumpers when buddy Scott Glenn is injured in a frightening opening rescue scene. The pyrotechnics in this movie are awesome and heat up the screen (ha ha). Suzy Amis is fun as the ornithologist who just happens to walk into the thick of things; William Forsythe is painfully effective as the cold-hearted killer who offs his prison escapee buddies so he can get all of his 37,000,000 dollars! There are some mind-blowing fire scenes and the firestorm itself is awesome.
A great kickbutt type of movie, and Howie's the man!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Howie Jumps Cons Nov 13 2002

Format:DVD
I don't understand why Howie Long doesn't make more like this. I think he did a fine job. Good perfomances by Scott Glen and William Forsythe as well. Forsythe has being a bad guy down to an art. If you liked action films like "Cliffhanger" with Sylvester Stallone, or "Shoot to Kill" with Tom Berenger you should like this. This is as good as many I have seen by these actors. While fighting a fire a group of convicts escape and Howie must stop them from kidnapping his friends...

If you liked action films like "Cliffhanger" with Sylvester Stallone, "Diehard" with Bruce Willis, "The Fugitive" with Harrison Ford, or "Shoot to Kill" with Tom Berenger you should like this. This is as good as many I have seen by these actors. While fighting a fire a group of convicts escape and Howie must stop them from kidnapping his friends. I would say give the critics the axe.

I admit, I only watched this movie for one reason. That reason is the incredibly talented and undeniably adorable Barry Pepper. Read more

I found nothing wrong with Howie Long's performance. There was not one point where I didn't believe him to be a smoke-jumper or a decent actor. Read more

I am a pyromaniac and that might explain why i like this movie but it also had tight fight scenes with lots of violence.
