The Bravest - Kampf den Flammen

I loved the movie even more. Even with reading the subtitles I couldn't help but get engrossed in it. I definitely have to watch this again. I know I missed somethings due to my reading. Definitely a much watch movie.

The rigid propaganda film fully embodies the reality of the current system that only contends for contempt and only calls for rigid slogans, regardless of whether it is black and white. From the beginning, it shows a logical black hole. The firefighting needs to take the bridge. The fire brigade is set up unreasonably. The hot pot restaurant is on fire, which means that a lot of oil and water are fired.

A few years ago, South Korea brought us 'The Tower', which I absolutely loved. Hollywood brought us 'Only the Brave' in 2017, which I absolutely hated, and 'Backdraft 2' in 2019, which received such bad reviews that I have no interest in seeing it. Now China brings us 'The Bravest', which I absolutely loved.

I've been in the mood for a disaster film of this caliber for a while now, and 'The Bravest' satisfied that need. The horror of a fire is so well demonstrated here, as well as the unpredictability of any fire. The visuals are impressive and the photography stunning, as well as very good cinematography.

The film grabs you from the opening scene. Thereafter, there literally never is a dull moment, with action and suspense from beginning to end. Most firefighting films have a good climatic fire scene - here the scene lasts the duration of the entire film. Awesome! Apart from the action, the film also deals with chaos and panic that ensues in the face of disaster.

Cringe worthy, some bad effects, horrible acting. Only China giving it good reviews. Truly appalling.

This is far away a theatrial melodrama of dimensions, that gives you a pampered roller coaster ride of heroism and grief.

its based on true happenings back in august 2015, and the film didnt mention that 170+ fatalities and 700 + injuries batteling the fire. far to little has leaked out on this incidenjt so we must embrace the film that has been made, because the fire and the action inbetween the saluting and words of wisdome are very well made.

if you like firebattling in the danger zone, do watch this , the grumpy old man did. by all means recommended
