Only the Brave Audience Reviews

Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Terry Williams Fighting fire with fire is the first thing that comes to mind when I think about Only the Brave. This movie had many elements, no pun intended, besides humongous brush fires. These infernos are deadly and to prevent them from entering populated areas is not a small feat. The leadership role Josh Brolin played was superb as he gave his squad great guidance and strategy. But no matter how much you plan something, things can go array when trying to deal with catastrophic winds, fire, and water. The same with earthquakes and so on, as we have seen many times in history. Much respect given to these guys who were an awesome team of hotshots, as they were called. Their heroism is clearly deserved, they fought the good fight in this must see film.

Neil Welch A group of Arizona-based wildfire firefighters have been working for 4 years to get from trainee to frontline "hotshot" status. Their superviser Eric is avoiding discussing the issue of children with wife Amanda. And new recruit (and ex-junkie) Brendan is doing his best to make the most of the chance he has been given as he strives to become the person his new daughter deserves.The trailer sells this as a well-made but fairly routine, and rather soapy, action/adventure and, as it gets under way, this is what is delivered to the audience. Anyone who has seen a few films acquires an unconscious appreciation of how films convey information, and this comes into play in a big way here: we are twice shown the drill whereby the guys climb into/under insulated bags to increase their chances of living through a sudden rush of conflagration - "Aha!" we say, "we can expect them to be doing that at the climax, then!" And, as our two main characters encounter significant personal issues towards the end, we say "So X helps Y to get under his bag in time, but loses his own life - how pitifully we can see them try to manipulate our emotions!"Yes, we all understand the grammar of films.There are two groups of people - those who have seen this film or who have read something about it, and those who haven't. If you are one of the second group, then don't do any more reading about this film, just go and see it. If you are one of the first group, then you will know why I said that.This is a film worth seeing, and seeing it completely cold will make it a remarkable experience for you.

851222 Greetings from Lithuania."Only the Brave" (2017) is a heartbreaking and amazing achievement. As the one who just kinda heard a bit about this true event and watched this movie open minded i can safely say - this is a great movie.Performances were great by simply everyone involved. Directing and script were first rate. But the most important thing is here the true story about these men - heroes. When you see a poster of this movie telling "Experience it in IMAX" you kinda shake your head in disbelieve - sure the movie looks amazing, but when you talking about true story and its devastating outcome, its just not a thing you can mess around.Overall, "Only the Brave" is a great movie about great heroes. Its a superbly done anthem to those who sacrificed everything. Great movie.

quebecproprio Great all the way, how the director made os feel almost as heart breaking and intense as a good war movie, but with fire fighters :) Woth the 2h30 run time !!
