The most an average human can make is 5.9 mph. I felt the film also makes you realise the devastating power of wildfires, just how fast they can suddenly change course and gather in terrifying speed like a wave and there's no way a human can outrun its path, its going 10-20 mph. There are also some interesting critical articles and videos worth reading after watching this movie on the internet, from families and professionals. If you don't know their story I won't spoil it here, but I will say I was hit like a sledgehammer with what happened - I was almost too stunned to cry. This film isn't a fast paced action film, it focuses on developing the characters and their relationships as well as (for me anyway) - introducing you to the everyday realities, strategies and tools these teams use to monitor and slow the course of a wildfire, its also quite shocking to see power politics involved too.

I watched this film based on reviews, the actors and that it was based on true events.

I'd never heard of the Granite Mountain hotshots before, and living in the UK I know nothing about the realities of wildfires. To learn more about how and for what purposes Amazon uses personal information (such as Amazon Store order history), please visit our Privacy Notice.
