Ablaze, 1 October 2006
8/10
Author: Bigtoe-4 from Canada

This movie is great, but there's one thing that the end credits say that is not entirely true. The end credit say that the movie was shot entirely on location in Los Angeles, California. Not true. There is original footage from the 1970's from an apartment building in flames in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I recognize the blue and white police car on the left of the screen and also the housing style as I have been to Montreal many many times living 1 1/5 hours drive from that city. Also the firefighting gear is mostly Canadian in the film, especially in the original footage. Now my big question is, being an avid collector of vintage Canadian firefighting gear, how did the producers get a hold of all of the vintage gear like; Chieftain long coats, Chieftain firefighter rubber hip boots, etc... That is something very, very special that is very, very rare. Two thumbs way up for this.
