Like Moths to a Flamenew
Jay Russell's action-packed, flame-broiled Ladder 49 is an all-out valentine to the firehouse fraternity. While it's good with mayhem, it's pretty weak in terms of actual human behavior.
After the Fire
Ladder 49 effectively balances humanizing and lionizing its firefighter heroes.
