Fireheart

This animated film starts out weak, has quite a few silly "jump the shark" moments, is goofy, but in parts funny, heartwarming, and overall fun.

Good animation (common in today's world of CGI animation) and a decent story (a young woman who wants to be a fire fighter when such was prohibited) work together to make this an enjoyable watch. Children will love it. Some adults will tolerate it. Other adults will love it, some hate it. It's right in that gray area.

I'm giving it 7 stars because despite its flaws, it teaches several good lessons about bravery, caution, determination, and the difference between right and wrong while still recognizing that sometimes things go sideways. Those lessons are well worth learning, especially in the younger set.

Not my favorite animation, but it accomplished its purpose despite its flaws. Worth a watch, especially for children.

It's your typical kids movie with a lesson at the end. This time, it's a movie about the fire female firefighter in the FDNY... set in 1932. I think it contains just the right amount of action for a movie, if you count the part where they drive a taxi onto the Empire State building under construction.

Cute and fun, goofy movie, good for children. I'm a pretty easily entertained person and I found it decent.

I only have two issues with this film, but they are pretty minor and easily overlooked.

1. The voice of the main character; she sounds wayyy older than 16, which is the age she is supposed to be, but I grew into it through the course of the movie and pretty much stopped noticing it.

2. The character design for the main character, she is seen working out at the beginning and doing some stuff where she is shown she can easily hold her own body weight and I feel it's very unrealistic that her character looks like she has no muscle mass at all, but then again, its an animation, and a childrens movie, so I can't really ask for realism.

In my honesty, not just fire fighters but all those around the world that are still fighting despite being held back for obvious reasons of gender neutrality, this movie was the voice dedicated too you, taking keep fighting for what you want and not otherwise what people tell you, am no motivator but i guess the movie speaks for all of us, am just pointing out why my opinions on this movie matters, can't categorize it in any favorite but at the end like always plus the fact that i did ebony it i must comment it by saying it was truly touching that at the end everything worked out fine for them.

As a female firefighter I am probably not the target audience for this film, but thought I might be able to offer a useful perspective given the subject matter. The concept of the film is unique, and kids (and maybe even some parents) would probably find it to be a fun adventure along the lines of Scooby Doo, but firefighters may find it hard to like.

It comes across as a film that tries to show what firefighters do in an age-appropriate way, while still containing plenty of the fun elements that appeal to kids. While this may be fine for its target audience, the result is a sufficiently inaccurate (and at times illogical) depiction of firefighting that will likely be a frustrating watch for a firefighter. But not just that, this is not a film where you can sit your kids down in front of it and tell them, "this is what mummy/daddy does". It's just too dissimilar.

Going into this film, I was concerned the 'woman fighting the patriarchy' plot point might be overdone to the point of being grating, but it actually had a much smaller role than I expected, and was handled fairly well, and was more just used to set the stage for later events.

It's worth mentioning that there's probably no trigger warnings for firefighters in this film. It is significantly sanitised since it's directed at a young audience, and I don't recall even seeing any open flame, just smoke. There's also no blood, gore, violence, car accidents, or character death. However, like most firefighting films that are not made with accuracy in mind, expect to be yelling at the tv a lot.

Firefighters, by all means let your kids watch this one, but if you join them don't expect to find it all that great yourself. Also, be prepared to field a few questions where you have to explain all the ways firefighting isn't like this movie.
