Ladder 49
I went and watched the new movie Ladder 49 last, and wow! It was one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Probabaly wasn't a real good one gor the girlfriend to watch, but that's OK. Anyone else seen this yet?

Havent seen it...but if its anything like Backdraft......I'll pass. All of us at the firehouse went to see Backdraft when it came out. Best training video ever....if they do it, dont.
Dont get me wrong, Backdraft was a good movie.....but from the inside looking out.........
I'll give 49 a fair try.........but I dont hold alot of excitement.

Ok,you convinced me,I wont take my girlfriend to see it.But do you think my wife might like it? 
On a serious note,any movie that portrays firefighters as the heros that they are,gets my attention.Even if they are overly melodramatic there is still something about them.I guess its like looking for the firetruck to go by,when you hear the siren from 1/4mi away.

It sounds like a cool movie especially since I'm a Jr. Firefighter (after I take the "firefighter 2" classes I'll be a REAL volunteer firefighter!) 
Hey King Triton!!! There was a thread about you not to long ago. We all wondered what happened to you! Good to see you back!

Saw it opening night with 10 other guys from the department and pretty much everyone liked it, some parts are obviously Hollywood but all in all very good.

I saw it on Sat. night with my wife and youngest son. I thought it was one of the best movies I've seen this year. My wife really liked it too. There were a bunch of our local firefighters there too and they all liked it. The manager of the theater asked them to autograph a poster when they came out, I thought it was pretty cool.
