      The first time Thomas and Denning get out of the car, the cable for the roller light goes out the car's window, but when they get back in, the cable has been moved to out the door instead of through the window.

      Jack Thomas: [answers phone] Station 19!

      Dispatcher Harris: Captain Thomas, house fire in your district Westside Park. 1313 Mockingbird Lane. Possibly a child trapped inside.

      Jack Thomas: Alright, send two wagons as backup! We'll break in first, tell them to stay the hell out of our way! We're ready to spray.

    Yet another movie they lifted from (Striking Distance)

    Not only did they lift scenes from City on Fire but the opening chase sequence was lifted from the Bruce Willis movie Striking Distance!

    This movie was probably the worst movie I have seen.

    This movie belongs in the bargain bin at Wal Mart, ummm... better yet it belongs in the trash.
