Backdraft 2

2019 · 102 min

A routine procedural sequel that trades the original's spectacle for a smaller, tenser arson investigation, watchable but forgettable.

Genres
Action, Crime, Drama
Overview
Years after the original Backdraft, Sean, son of the late Steve "Bull" McCaffrey, is assigned to investigate a deadly fire only to realize it is something much more sinister.
How it feels
Tense, dark, melancholic and earnest. Brisk and easy to follow.
About
Revenge, family, crime, justice
Content
Strong violence and language. Mild gore and sexual content.
