| Film ThreatClint MorrisA madcap rom-com made all the more entertaining thanks to the cast |
| User ReviewNestor Othe firemen quartet does it for me. funny, light-hearted movie. |
| User ReviewCatriona CI don't know why but I absolutely love the film. I think it has to do with crazy clowns and repressed men... |
| User ReviewMatt BYour basic love triangle... set on fire by pyrokinesis! A little-known classic. |
| User ReviewTrishKa RThis movie fits people with a certain sense of humor. As a kid, I liked it! Rediscovered it as an adult and loved it even more. |
| User ReviewMelanie RThis little seen movie is full of quirky characters. A simple story of self-denial, self-destruction and redemption. Debra Winger is wonderful as a slightly loopy pyromaniac and Dennis Quaid as a lusty pyrokynetic clown is over-the-top goodness! |
| User ReviewChristopher BThis movie is F@#king brilliant! Two waring brother who can generate fire, what more can you ask for?...Well worth a watch (if you can find a copy)!!! |
| User ReviewJason DI only saw the second half but it seemed to be a wacky movie with a lot of cool pyro effects and an original premise. Two brothers who can generate fire fighting their asses off and destroying everything that gets in their way! It's like a really wacky Coen Bros. superhero film. |
| User ReviewBrad WWhere was this gem hiding for the last 15 years? How did I never hear of it? This is just the kind of quirky early/mid-90s era films that I love. It's over engineered, highly detailed, and perhaps way ahead of its time. I don't know if this film was shelved or if it simply didn't catch on with people or find an audience, but this is a fantastic romantic comedy with brilliant acting and stunning cinematography. The writer and director of this film are both underrated geniuses... |
| User ReviewAdrian KA very dark romantic comedy with a fantastic anti hero character. Oh yes, and pyrokinetic clowns. |
