5.0 out of 5 stars Love this movie

I can watch this movie over and over again. Debra Winger, Arliss Howard and Dennis Quad did a very good job with this movie. Don't care what other people say. I wish I had the brother's abilities. But the biggest reason I love this movie is Jim Varney. Only a hand full of movies he did in live action that wasn't Ernest. 👍👍

this is a funny movie, the subject matter unique, and all the actors seem to be having a great time. the chemistry between Arliss Howard and the wonderful Debra Winger, whose grin is just infectious, was real - they are married. i dont know if they were when they did this. I'm not a big fan of Dennis Quaid but he was good in this. His .. suspicious and self important air works very well with this character.

two boys have extraodinary abilities with fire.
the added stuff with the singing fireman is abit much but still it lends a certain friday night at the movies air, this would be a good movie if you had to hold up in your room for a while and watch .. movies that turn out happy in the end.

1.0 out of 5 stars Weak plot, very little substance. Attempts to be Avant-garde but fails. Creepy instead

If there is nothing else to watch, perhaps this could pass the time, but don't expect a strong delivery or any meaningful plot development.

Perhaps this was a poorly developed book adaptation?? If so, that could explain how this excuse for a movie was ever considered.

One of the stranger movies I've watched. Didn't know the fantastic Debra Winger was in the movie. She and all the other actors were really fun to watch as they hammed it up in this brother jealousy dramady. The action scenes were terrific too. Well done costumes and explosions, interspersed with schizophrenic dialogue, sight and sound gags, and monster fireballs. What was not to like?

This movie is dead serious slapstick funny.

With this film, first you have to get over the fact that one aspect of it is unrealistic. I won't go into what that is, as I don't wish to ruin the movie for you. If you are a big Debra Winger fan, this is a "buy" right off the bat, no need to read any more. Two brothers, one of them her husband, are fighting over her in a most extreme fashion. I promise you have never seen a fight like it. Jim Varney (Ernest Goes To Camp) and M. Emmett Walsh have great cameos in this film, as does a singing fire brigade. While this will never be on the AFI top 100 list, if you like an offbeat comedy, you will probably like this, and you will likely want to watch it again now and then. As I stated in the first line, though, if you are a person who insists on every minute of a film being completely credible scientifically, then you may want to bypass it, as a bit of a leap of faith is required regarding one point.

This was an average movie. I would not recommend watching it. It is a comedy love story about rival brothers with pyrokinesis.

Not sure how to explain why I like this movie. Waited five or six years for it to come out on DVD and it was worth it. Jim Varney (now passed away) was fun to watch in a role unlike the ones he played in later movies. Debra Winger was as always offbeat and did not know until researching this movie online that she and Arliss Howard married after this movie. Everyone in this movie made it work in their own way strange way. For me it is just fun to watch every now and then when life starts to get to serious.
