Review of On Fire

On Fire (2023)
2/10
One of the worst movies I have ever seen.

Warning: Spoilers
This was the goofiest thing I have ever watched. The CGI was awful, the mother was the most annoying character I have ever seen that needed a pep talk every other minute to walk more than three feet, and for some reason the family consistently did smartest possible thing in the stupidest possible way.

I had 0 sympathy for any of them, and the only character I felt close to was the grandfather as I was jealous he got to leave halfway through the movie and I could not.

So many scenes that could have been emotional were deafened by a cacophony of cheesy 80's victory lap music, and the ending was a rocky workout marathon scene that ended with some nerd taking up valuable time from a woman trying to help fire survivors just so he could say thanks. Maybe wait until there are no more people on fire.

I can't believe the bill they chose for the father to fall down looked like it had a 2 degree slope after they ran from a fire that inexplicably exploded (possibly from the Micheal Bay particularly in the forest) and the dad needed a "you can do it" speech to walk 40 feet with the help of two people.

If this movie is based on the struggle of a real family, this movie has forever shamed them by showcasing them as the goofiest goobers to ever fumble through a forest being chased by the Human Torch's CGI farts.

Do yourself a favor and see this movie. It was so horrible that me and the entire theater laughed through the whole thing. Wonderful comedy movie, I'm looking forward to On Fire 2.
