filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

mustang5201 Let me start by saying how much I love disaster movies. I even love ones made by The Asylum. That being said, do not waste your time watching this movie. To start with, Ice-T, who has top billing, is only in this movie for about 5 minutes in the beginning and 1 minute at the end. Huge disappointment. Second, about halfway through I started feeling deja vu. I knew I'd never seen this exact movie before, but why did it feel so familiar? There are two reasons for that. First, it has the almost exact same premise from a 1979 movie called City on Fire. From the refinery fire, to the hospital evacuation. Second, most of the scenes of the hospital evacuation and fire was actually footage from the same movie. You can clearly see the difference. One scene everyone is dressed in 2000 era clothing, the cars are from around that time, the firefighter suits are from that time, the hairstyles, etc.. Then the next scene you can clearly see how dated the film is, the hairstyles, clothing, and cars from the 70's. It's blatantly obvious and quite laughable. My only question is, why would anyone make this movie if only to be lazy about it?? Don't waste your time with this. While City on Fire isn't the best movie ever, it's much better than Ablaze.

ralpgalland Not too bad for a lesser Hollywood movie with no big screen names(Ice-T don't count). It's got the usual amount of bloopers that you can expect from a such a movie. It also got the usual amounts of flaws in how things are done, like a fire rescue team running into a burning and smoking building without the proper equipment, kinda like "firemen Rambos".The storyline could have been better, but I've seen worse in some of the major hit movies the last 10 years. However, the movie does have a "tv movie" feel to it, with some of the acting and how it's shot.As for the cast, some of them I would have expected more from, while others that are more unknown does a rather good job.But overall, if you manage to ignore the bloopers and errors, it's an enjoyable film to watch when you're out of the "major name" movies. Just grab the popcorn and enjoy.

albaitis Although I have been a firefighter for 23 years, I make it a point to not be overly critical when the technical "advisors" drop the ball as they so often have (even on Backdraft and Ladder 49). However, the absolute disregard for any reasonable correctness in this abomination is unforgivable. But the firefighting aspects aside, this movie to date stands alone as the worst that I have ever seen. Ever. I accept some of the blame for not ejecting the thing but it was like a train wreck. I could not look away.As we all can attest, some movies by virtue of their awfulness can be fun. (i.e. Ed Wood's side-splitting "Plan-9 From Outer Space") This was not one of them. "Ablaze" is one of the many Hollywood debacles that must beg the question, "where do they get the money?".

Shaq_Ames ..::**Possible Spoilers**::.. I remember browsing the shelf at Movie World, and me, being a fireman, my eye caught the cover. It looked good. The cover is the only good thing about this piece of trash. I knew something was wrong when you could see the stunt mans "goo". Next thing I know, our "heros" pull up in an outdated piece of crap, and run in with next to no gear on. They would have been just as well of dousing themselves in gasoline before running inside. The plot dissolved after the beginning credits rolled, and after the ending credits, still wonder what happened to the arsonist plot. I think the PFD on their helmets stands for "Pretend Fire Department" because everything they could have done wrong in this movie is done wrong. It's weird how you can leave they leave the station in a Ward, then shows them responding with what looks like European apparatus, and even shows a tiller (where the heck did this come from) and then they pull up to the scene in a totally different rig. In one scene, you can see Jonny and Roy pull up in squad 51 (tv show emergency!) I think they used more stock footage than actual footage they taped themselves. Chessy one liners, innacurate statements, the list goes on and on. This piece of trash should be lit ablaze.
