Reverence for disaster, reverence for nature, reverence for life

"When the fire is over, you feel like a hundred trains are running over you."

Unlike previous disaster films, in the end, it is always the individual hero who overcomes the disaster, saves the world, and reunites the whole family. The film revolves around firefighting from beginning to end, but instead of splashing too much on firefighting, it has done enough in their personal lives.

Those who are usually called heroes by us also have their own lives, and they also have to face parental shortcomings, oily sauces and vinegars, and even dog-blooded unintended pregnancy, so they are just ordinary people like us, just disasters When it comes, we can flee desperately, but they have to arrive at the first scene and fight the disaster face to face.

The previous few understatement firefighting battles pushed the team little by little to a first-class regular army, little by little, made the rookie into a connoisseur. It seems that no fire can defeat them, and they will eventually sit in groups on the top of the mountain. On the huge boulder, like the Greek gods, looking at the blood-like setting sun in the west, the flames and dead trees fell down the cliff together, in exchange for the ridicule of the crowd. But in the end, the speed of development of the fire exceeded everyone's expectations. The flames were destroyed by the wind, and the speed of 80 kilometers continued to invade a warning point. When it was really necessary to face the flames like a hundred trains, The self-rescue measures that have been practiced countless times have no effect. Except for the rookie, everyone is silent on the ground covered with dead ashes and never gets up again.

In the face of disaster, no matter how rich experience and advanced equipment are, it will be of no avail. Life is fragile like soot in anger, which is fleeting. Maybe future disaster films should be defined as "Meteorite Hits the Earth", "The Day After Tomorrow", the kind of destructive film, this kind of real, often happening around us, should be divided into the categories of documentaries, emotional films, and life films . What we want to promote is that human beings are small, fragile, tenacious, and brave, but it is not like ants shaking trees, mans arms blocking cars, like Raining, knowing that there is fire in the mountains, and preferring to go to volcanoes.

I fear nature, disasters, and life. When faced with disasters, I will thank the heroes for carrying the burden for me, but I will try to run faster than others; I will educate my children to remember heroic deeds, but not let them He went into this profession.

    Fighting fire with fire to increase knowledge! Crit and cry ~ There is nothing more heroic than being born for the sake of others! The stories of civilian heroes are often the most moving and need not be sensational. Those 20 or 30-year-old lives in the photo at the end of the film, your smiles are always fresh~ The middle school scene was amazing! ps, Lao Jia is really lucky, won't his daughter-in-law grow old! So beautiful in a white horse t-shirt! And the two old friends are shouldering shoulders at the top of the mountain, like a blessed version of Broken Arm Mountain @ Purple Light

    Playing tricks on newcomers, two fathers making babies, and the fire brigade in the forest; the story is realistic, the disaster scenes are downplayed, and the actors are good and the characters are three-dimensional.

Only the Brave quotes

  • Duane Steinbrink: I know you boys are looking for sympathy. You'll find that in the dictionary somewhere between shit and syphilis.

  • Eric Marsh: Fire's making a run for our line, and by the time she gets here she's going to be too strong to hold. Gonna crown that ridge, spot over and run straight into town. If we back burn this side of the mountain, by the time that bitch comes over it won't have no fuel to feed into.

    Evaluator Hayes: That's a godawful idea. All the conditions favor the fire, and when that blaze comes down that mountain it's gonna kick your ass and use your burn to get even stronger, we won't be able to stop it.

    Eric Marsh: Well our line's not gonna hold unless we burn it off.

    Evaluator Hayes: Well then slow it down until we get more resources up here.

    Eric Marsh: What you don't understand sir...

    Evaluator Hayes: What you don't understand is forty years, son. I was on the job when you were still shitin' yellow, so if you think you're gonna to make a big move and impress me, i'm tellin' you right now, don't!

    Eric Marsh: Due respect sir, you are just an observer, so let us do our job...

    Evaluator Hayes: No, you...

    Eric Marsh: No no no! Step off, now! Step... off!
