A dedication ceremony at the world's tallest skyscraper turns into a high-rise catastrophe when a defective wire in its systems-control panel causes an electrical flare-up. Within minutes the gala event turns into a hellish inferno, as a raging fire traps

Customer Rating: Summary: Great Disaster Flick! Comment: Irwin Allen's follow-up to "The Poseidon Adventure" was a star studded spectacle with wonderful special effects and lots of suspense. Starring Paul Newman, Steve McQueen, Faye Dunaway and William Holden. Music by John Williams. Look for Maureen McGovern singing "We May Never Love Like This Again". Customer Rating: Summary: Ah...memories Comment: Arguably the king of the 70's disasters flicks, The Towering Inferno takes a couple of crazy ideas like build a tower 135 floors in San Francisco and let's do it on the cheap. What's the worse that can happen? Blessed with an all star cast and armed with some state of the art (at the time) pyrotechnics, The Towering Inferno, despite the cheese, doesn't fail to thrill you. It's fun to guess who's going to live and who's going to die. Never mind why it takes so long for the fire department to arrive and why didn't everyone just go to the roof and have an arm of helicopters pick them up. Or better yet-blow the tanks earlier. Still, it's good entertainment.
Customer Rating: Summary: Towering Entertainment!! Comment: Somehow this movie features both camp fun and a genuine story, thrills and chills.The opening sequence is incredible. And for the most part, the movie gets better as it goes along. Sure the story bogs down a little here and there, but whats amazing is that a movie that is so FX heavy has a story at all, let alone a fairly engaging one. The sub-plots are well done, effects are fantastic, AND you get to see Newman and McQueen work together.Among the best of the disaster films , Towering Inferno has something for everyone. And what a great title! Customer Rating: Summary: The Towering Inferno Comment: This product arrived quickly and in great condition. It was just what I had wanted and expected. Great Job!!
