4.0 out of 5 stars
"We open our eyes and dream",
By
This review is from: Ladder 49 [DVD] (DVD)
From the very first we are immersed in explosive scenes as watch Jack Morrison (Joaquin Phoenix), a well trained fire fighter is disregarding his own peril as he saves a man from the burning high-rise building. The inevitable happens and Jack is trapped in the burning debris. As his comrades rush to save him the rest of the film is a series of flash-backs from his rooky days until the present. The story focus is on Jack Morrison's life and secondarily firefighting in general. Captain Mike Kennedy (John Travolta) holds the team together. John Travolta is believable in the film. Aside from the numerous clichés and shades of 9/11 this is a well done formula movie. ---------------------------------------------------------- There are some extras such as an audio commentary with director Jay Russell and Editor Bud Smith. There is a lot of interesting backgrounds music to the various scenes. This soundtrack is available.
