Overall : A captivating story of courage, bravery, and loyalty that will powerfully inspire and grip hearts with its incredible storytelling and character development. I waited to see this one because I knew the story of the Granite Mountain Hotshots but was finally convinced to watch it when I realized Joseph Kosinski directed it. To no surprise, Kosinski created another compelling and moving film. The characters were each so rich and well developed. Throughout the film, you see each grow and mature, making the stakes feel much higher because you care all the more for every character and moment. The intensity of the film makes it hard to say I enjoyed it. Still, Only The Brave is undoubtedly an incredible movie that told its powerful story through an astonishing cast, expert story and writing, and brilliant directorial vision.
