Summary: One of the more underrated Spielberg movies
Comment: Pete (Richard Dreyfuss) is a firefighting pilot in the West who promises his girlfriend Dorinda (Holly Hunter) that he'll give up his dangerous job. Before he can do so, he is killed trying to rescue their friend Al (John Goodman). Pete then finds himself talking to an angel (Audrey Hepburn, in her final role). He is assigned a new mission- to become a guardian angel to an up-and-coming pilot, Ted (Brad Johnson).
Steven Spielberg directed this film, which is based on the 1943 Spencer Tracy movie A Guy Named Joe (not available on DVD). Aviation buffs will enjoy numerous flying sequences showing the Forest Service pilots in action as well as around the airport. Although the story is set in the present day, Spielberg used many World War II era airplanes to give the film a sense of timelessness which suits the story fine. The second half of the movie may remind audiences of the Patrick Swayze tearjerker Ghost, released a year later, as we see the deceased Pete in scenes with his friends, who cannot see him, yet interact with him in unusual ways.

Summary: fire bomber
Comment: Are you a fan of aerial fire bombing? If not, this will make you one. Lots of round engines, sounds of Pratt and Whitneys, smoke and of course, fire. There is a love story too, isn't there always? Enjoy.

Every scene steals your heart! Don't miss this one.
