Joaquin Phoenix and John Travolta ignite the intense action in this heroic tale of ordinary men with uncommon courage. As part of a tightly knit brotherhood of skilled firefighters, Jack Morrison (Phoenix) grows from inexperienced rookie to seasoned veteran as he faces a dangerous job that makes him a hero to strangers but often shortchanges his wife (Jacinda Barrett) and kids.
Then, when he becomes trapped in the worst blaze of his career, the things Jack holds most important – family, duty, courage – come sharply into focus.
The DVD is out today in the US and available via Amazon. You can read our review in this article and more about the DVD in our database.
