Burn Baby Burn!

Ladder 49(2004)

Starring: Joaquin Phoenix, John Travolta Directed by: Jay Russell Rating: PG-13 Genre: Drama Other

Review Ladder 49 (named for the number of steps it takes for a fireman to reach the second story of a burning building) has all of the excitement of Backdraft without the annoying story line. Who hasn't, at one time or another, considered buring down his parents' horrible, boring summer house? Ladder 49 is probably as close as most of you are ever going to get. An experience not to be missed by those who love the mysterious yellow blossom in all its myriad manifestations!
