      Look at Responsibility from the "Fire Ambition"

      I watched the ending of "Fire Ambition" on CCTV's six sets. Because I have already seen the introduction of the movie during the day, I can basically guess the plot of the movie. The ending is quite shocking.

      Turning off the TV and lying in bed, what I think of is the question of responsibility, and life is responsibility. Counting "responsibility" and "responsibility" can be considered very fashionable words. If they are abused, they will reduce their original standards and public...

      Experienced movie scenes

      I went to the Universal Studio in California to see this Backdraft fire effect before I knew there was such a movie.

      At that time, the last stage was the fire scene in the movie (the one that finally exploded in the chemical plant). All burning is real. The flames and explosions are quite shocking. The most exciting part is the final climax. The jars in the scene blew up into the sky (just like in the movie). A heat wave rushed in. The standing steps suddenly sank with the final...

      Revisit the classics

      I talked about this with my friend a few days ago, and suddenly wanted to revisit it. Watching this movie now, the character settings and scenes are still great today. I can't feel the unreasonableness and place between the works of the early 1990s and the present. I've seen a lot of heroes of firefighting, but "Backfire" is still fresh in my memory. Smoke popped out of the door and retracted, and the mask was broken by the fire. In the face of the sacrifice of a companion, it is not...

      Fire is ruthless, brothers are affectionate. There are so many occupations that Lao Luo has acted in, but it is a pity that this role does not have much room to play, and his good acting skills are wasted...

    Movie quotes

    • Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: You see that glow flashing in the corner of your eye? That's your career dissipation light. It just went into high gear.

    • Tim Kizminski: [in a high rise elevator] How do we know if the floor's gonna be on fire on one of these?

      Lt. Steven McCaffrey: Well, when the doors open, if it's hot, don't get out.

    • Ronald: I sent away for the copy of Life magazine. The one with your picture on the front. It's a collectible.

      Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: Who's doing this, Ronald?

      Ronald: Wrong question. Who isn't? It's not a spark because there's not enough damage. He wouldn't have had any fun. It's not an insurance scam because there isn't any profit.

      Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: Do you know who's doing this?

      Ronald: Yes.

      Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: Then tell me.

      Ronald: You want to know who? I want to know if this kid really wanted to be just like his dad.

      Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: I wanted to be him. I wanted to be him more than anything else in the world.

      Ronald: And you loved him?

      Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: Yeah.

      Ronald: And you watched him dance with the animal. You saw your dad burn.

      Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: Fuck you Ronald. Who's doing this, huh?

      Ronald: Did it look at you? Did the fire look at you? It did. Whoa. Wow. Our worlds aren't that far apart after all, are they? So, whoever is doing this knows the animal well, doesn't he? He knows him real well, but he won't let him loose. He won't let him have any fun, so he does not love him. Now who doesn't love fire? And is around trychtichlorate all day long?

      Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: [realizes who it might be] Oh my God!

      Ronald: See... that wasn't such a long trip after all.
