The listing, VHS "LADDER 49" Joaquin Phoenix,John Travolta.TRAPPED IN BUILDING POWERFUL FILM! 2005 has ended.

I went to see this movie mainly because I think Joaquin Phoenix is an incredible actor, and he didn't disappoint me. The whole cast of "Ladder 49" delivers solid, empathetic performances. The characters seemed like real guys that you'd meet down the street--Great job by John Travolta!.
... But that is not the reason that this is a fine movie.
The cinematography of this film is brilliant - camera angles, unique points of view - I could tell from the opening fire scene, when the shot moves to the reflection of the burning building in a puddle of water, that this was going to be a different movie. It has great action scenes, heartfelt love scenes, and it is REAL. --REAL LIFE EXPERIENCES!Not an unreal moment in this film--I liked that. In other words--it puts the viewer right there with this great cast and story.
===I would recommend this movie for everybody - if you like a good intellectual movie, you'll be blown away by the acting and simplicity, but if you're just in the mood for an action movie, there's a lot of explosions too.
Great, great ending, one that really sticks with you.
