realistic filming, somewhat corny acting, depressing (although true) conclusion

An interesting and compelling story.

I liked the movie and you can not say enough about what firer fighters do for us. It is a hard job and a dangerous one as well. You know this with all the forest fires we have in the west coast. My one thing was I was not sure why they decided to go down the hill with the wind moving as fast as it was and then in a circle not being able to get out. That part did not make sense to me. A bad judgement call on the leader. So sad to see how young they all were.

sad, touching true story of brave young forest firefighters. a moving movie...
