"This is based on the 2018 Camp fire in Paradise, CA, starring Chrissy Metz (who was also in "This is Us"), who played the part of a real-life heroine/nurse. It was okay, however I got the sense people didn't "move" with that sense of urgency for such a disaster unfolding, as if they seemed to be moving in a bit of slow motion almost. Taking time to have those conversations seemed a bit unrealistic, which I think was maybe only for dramatic effect for a story in the movie. I didn't quite "feel" the terror of which I would imagine was much more so in real life.
