Warning: Spoilers
..::**Possible Spoilers**::.. I remember browsing the shelf at Movie World, and me, being a fireman, my eye caught the cover. It looked good. The cover is the only good thing about this piece of trash. I knew something was wrong when you could see the stunt mans "goo". Next thing I know, our "heros" pull up in an outdated piece of crap, and run in with next to no gear on. They would have been just as well of dousing themselves in gasoline before running inside. The plot dissolved after the beginning credits rolled, and after the ending credits, still wonder what happened to the arsonist plot. I think the PFD on their helmets stands for "Pretend Fire Department" because everything they could have done wrong in this movie is done wrong. It's weird how you can leave they leave the station in a Ward, then shows them responding with what looks like European apparatus, and even shows a tiller (where the heck did this come from) and then they pull up to the scene in a totally different rig. In one scene, you can see Jonny and Roy pull up in squad 51 (tv show emergency!) I think they used more stock footage than actual footage they taped themselves. Chessy one liners, innacurate statements, the list goes on and on. This piece of trash should be lit ablaze.
