  • it was alright. i just wish deniros role was bigger. Ladder 49 was better in my opinion

  • t's awesome

  • the movie is better than the trailer you don't really get a feel for what the movie is about based on the trailer

  • Anyone else catch that they didn't use music from the movie itself, but stole it from Glory?

  • @rwargo24 Fairly standard practice. There's about 20 different themes that end up being used for almost all film soundtracks. There's a piece by Randy Edelman from the film 'Come See the Paradise" that's probably been used 40 or 50 times. Ironically, songs from the Backdraft soundtrack (written by Hans Zimmer) have also been used on other film trailers.

  • @ersatzelvis I guess it was more obvious to me when it was scenes from a movie I really like being combined with a score from another movie I really like.

  • Sapiens discovery fires, dramatic climax increasing, heats intense danger, dangers intense heating, increases climaxes dramatic, fire discovering sapiens !

  • Kurt Russell's greatest performance. I think he was born to do this movie.

  • ON VIDEOCASSETTE! wow.

  • William Baldwin, Kurt Russell, Scott Glen, Robert De Niro, Donald Sutherland = BEST MOVIE EVER

  • whats the name of the song in this trailer?

  • @Zooroonies

    It's the theme from the "Glory" movie.

  • I TOLD YOU TO STAY RIGHT BY FUCKING SIDE ME BRIANN!!!!!!!

    Great. I love that seen

  • I love this movie AND the movie the music came from...Glory (both are filled with pride and honor).

  • How come the Backdraft trailer was not on the DVD? I remember when this came out one of my favorite movies growing up as a kid.

  • Whoever said this movie is cheesy............is damn right!

    And that's why I'll probably love it!

  • its one of the best films ever of course its better then ladder 49 :O

  • This Musik isnt in the movie....and not in the soundtrack..... does anybody know it? The trailer of apollo 13 has the same musik!!!!!!!!!

  • It's from the movie 'Glory'

  • Thanks alot! search more than 6 years!

  • @Tradstone701

    Spotify got it, if u check out hans zimmers tracks.

  • i love the Universal Studios fire show for this movie!! It's a whole choreographed burning of inside a building and it gets closer and closer to the audience (with explosions and giant set pieces flying everywhere)!! Pretty stunning!! I used to go to it ALLLLLL the time as a kid with my season pass ... haha. They talk about the movie right after the fire show, ALL THE FIRE IN THE MOVIE WAS REAL!!!! HOW DID THEY DO IT???????

  • With propane burners used normally in movies when is needed to simulate a fire.

    :D

  • its called Controlled FIres

    just like in the academy

  • check that door for heat?

  • and then BOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!! backdraft..not good

  • i can't believe i've never seen this movie!...downloading it now!

  • my husband is telling about a movie that a firefighter talkswith his dead father through a radio. Is this the one? I'm really tired of looking for it, but i'm very curious about the movie.

  • That's 'Frequency'.

  • thank you very much... i'll watch it now.

  • this isnt the one the movie your looking for has Jim caviezel and Dennis quiad in it and I believe its called frequency

  • @cherryemel

    hmm i dont know,but try a movie called- turk 182-from 80s something.

  • @cherryemel no it isn't the same one but this one is very good

  • im definetly gonna get the video cassete now, thanks!

  • William Baldwin was hot in this movie!

  • required viewing

  • This film score was used in the movie "Glory"

  • video cassette lol so old school =D

  • Comment removed

  • hahaha...one day, even the Dvd will be old school

  • man my skin crawls when hearing this great audio theme

    LOVE THIS MOVIE!!

  • i remember seeing this with my dad back in the early 90s. great bonding time

  • Awesome movie! So real, so emotional, so exciting. The acting was great. I love Kurt Russel and William Baldwin

  • One of the best movies ever.

  • This is one of the best movie trailer music i've ever heard.

  • James Horner is a great composer

  • The music for the movie was composed by Hans Zimmer. I dont know who made the music for this trailer though.

  • Hans Zimmer didn't make the trailer music, it was James Horner. The song is from Glory, Horner composed the score for that film.

  • Cool, I didnt know who wrote the song. Thanks.

  • How fitting is it that Bruce Hornsby and the Range contributed "The Show Goes On" on the Backdraft soundtrack. Reason it's so fitting is that Bruce Hornsby's real name is Bruce COCKBURN!!!

  • Backdraft is an unrealistic movie, they running with open coat and without scba, in a real life you have a low visibility for the smoke conditionand a lot of heat. But I still love o see this movie.

  • Yeah, I know what you mean. Real firefighters are outraged at this movie. 2 of my friends who are firefighters say the same thing.

  • Yeah, but how fucking boring would it be for guys to run around in full SCBA, nobody knowing what the fuck they're saying. Remember, it's hollywood. Awesome movie, not real procedure!!

  • I would like to see that. There are only a handful of real footage of actual work being done. They are only documentaries let me add. I would like to see a realistic FDNY movie and a movie without Baldwin because he sucked in this movie. Even Ladder 49 wasn't as realistic but it was getting there.

  • Then ya gotta love "Rescue Me". The fire scenes are great, and the harrassment around the hall is bang on.

  • my father was a firefighter now i do it it is how i met my soon to be husband and our little girl is showing an intersed in doing it one day. firefighting has brought joy into my life. it gave me another tight knit family that some of the greatest people. being a firefighter it make you learn things about yourself. and it shows what your really made of. my heart is alwas with my fellow brothers and sisters in this job

  • I still can't find this song to save my life!!! But still best movie in the world. From one firefighter to another you guys keep it safe and let me know if you know what this music is

  • The song is from the movie Glory it is played over the closing credits and I believe the track is actually called Closing Credits.

  • i watched this movie when i was 13

    now i hav been watched over few times

    remind me and my brother...

    really touch ur heart...

  • Backdraft was ridiculously unrealistic ("fire is alive"--bunch of bullshit), but it still love it. I saw it on the big screen with my dad when I was a kid, now I'm the 3rd generation of the family to be a firefighter. All these years later and I still cry when I see the ending.

    Man, I wish my department would issue traditional helmets instead of phoenixes...

  • In the movie when the part "20 YEARS LATER" pops up what is the name of that song, major propz to the person that helps me out!!!

  • THI is my favooooooooooooooooooooooooori­te movie ever!!! best music eva!!! Grew up watching it in my uncles friehouse with the guys.....<3

  • texfreedomgal Good luck and be safe.

    my dad was a volunteer firefighter for a long time.

  • WOW! On videocassette!

  • these people are really a rare kind of people they never ask questions they just do what they are trained to do. i feel pride with the honor guard because we repersent everything these people do fo us. at a service i was told we never plan on becomming a firefighter the job deside who it wants, and more people need to pay respects to those who are no longer here on earth as well as those who are still here. never forget those who are gone

  • i belive you haven't lived untill you have been a firefighter. this movie and 9/11 help me deside this is where i want to go in life. and 9/11/06 i fought a fire in the area. there is no feeling like know those who went before ya are still with us on a call. and next to firefighting i'm in the firefighters honor guard.

  • im right there with ya brother

  • I don't know about the "haven't lived" part. The job ain't for everybody, but I sure as hell don't want to do anything else.

    Seems like a lot of the new kids these days don't really have the commitment and work ethic it takes, though. How can I trust a kid who sits on his ass when he should be working, studying, or training? How can I trust a kid who, in a RIC drill, abandons her crew and the downed FF (can you say "what the fuck?"). So many of them just don't get it.

  • man my skin rises while watching this

    GREAT MOVIE! GREAT SOUNDTRACK!

    I REMEMBER MYSELF WATCHING THIS WHEN I WAS A KID

    LOVE IT!!

  • its William when i was younger i swear it was Alex

  • What's the name of this song?!?!?!?!?!

  • This is the best movie ever made...In my opinion

  • not a bad movie,it"s good. Seen it about 20 times but what the hell :D still a good movie

  • its a sad movie

  • I believe this to be the GREATEST Firefighter movie of ALL TIME!! Ladder 49, IMO, comes in a close second, but also a great movie!

  • good movie, kurt russell's character is "da Man" in this movie but his wife cant handle it and is jealous or w.e! LoL

  • Can u upload this again with a better audio sync?

  • I agree i wish i could. Unfortunatly I recently upgraded my computer and could not locate the original. I appoligize.

  • Great cast but especially Kurt Russell gives his lifetime performance...

  • best movie ever

  • One of the best movie trailers of all time.

  • best firefighter movie ever...great movie and kurt russel rocks

  • yep! great movie!

  • Great Blowhard American movie; best line (I hoped it would be on the trailer)

    "Was that before or after you realized YOU WERE STANDING IN A LAKE OF GASOLINE!?!?"

  • Since this is a Universal movie, would they air it on NBC?

  • Probably earlier when it came ou....they might now. However lately I believe HBO has been playing it.

  • they did air it on NBC one time that i can remember a long time ago like in 1993 when it just came out on TV

  • kirk russell's character is "DA MAN!" in this movie but his feminist wife cant handle it & is jealous etc.!!!! LoL ;)

  • lolfirefighters

  • Guys I think I'm gonna make it.

  • CHECK THAT DOOR FOR HEAT

  • POMPYRO

  • this movie got me an B in sci class in 11th grade. i did a report on backdrafts and the sci behind them. after the report i showed a part of the movie where tim gets burned. the teaher loved the whole deal she even rented the movie to see the rest. i'm one of those people who belive firefighting got better after this movie because everyone wanted to be a firefighter. now after 9/11/01 more people are aware of the dangers that are faced by firefighters. god bless all of my bro and sis

  • i am a firefighter and this movie is great

  • fav firefighter movie, one og my al ltime faves,makes me want to become a firefighter

  • This song will always belong to Glory. Any other way just seems ridiculous.

  • Seems an odd choice for the trailer when the music from the film was composed my someone else.

    It's an awesome piece of music but it's it a slap in the face to Hans Zimmer to use James Horner's music to promote a film he did the score for?

  • I used to watch this everyday i was at my grandads when he finished work lol he was a firefighter to :o

  • My favorite movie when i was little, watched it like 5 times a day.

  • just like me

  • This movie came out when I was a baby!

  • this movie came out whwn i was 5 years old, dude

  • Cool!

  • i was five i know it line from line

  • i don't care what people say this is the best movie ever. this movie right here is what helped me to deside on becoming a firefighter. and i love what i do i love my department they are my family. this movie gives a somewhat of an idea what we go through. most people i know love this movie as well.

  • i agree with you i love this movie i saw it so many times when i was about a little younger (23) now..I acted some parts of the movie with a plastic fire hat for fun and no every part to this movie!!!! its great

  • This movie is utter CHEESE!! De Niro and Hans Zimmer's score are the only things that keep it afloat.

  • I've always wondered what the music is that they used for this trailer. It's not in the film, it's been bugging me since I was seven!

  • It's from the movie Glory - Closing Credits (composed by James Horner)

  • AAHHHH! Omigosh!  Thankyou!!! ^0^

  • Great movie...its even more significant since September 11th..

  • I agree
