Matthew McConaughey

He goes out that morning.

There's a fire coming across the canyon, as they always do.

No problem.

First responders head out.

Well, by the afternoon, it had gotten out of hand and was jumping the canyon.

And so that afternoon, as he's now decided, oh, shit, I've got to go back and get my mom and my son.

Neither one of them can drive.

Get them to safety.

On the way home, barging home to go barge down the highway to go get them, a call comes through dispatch.

I got 22 stranded kids on the east side of town.

Is anyone over there with an empty bus?

Whoa.

Guess who's got an empty bus?

I want to go get my mom and my son, man.

But he takes the call and says, I'll go get them.

He goes and gets them.

A teacher, their teacher gets on the bus, and this is their story of about eight hours of going through hell and how and if they got out of it.

And really...

awesome adrenaline pumped action, which you're going to get from green grass and a story like that.

Like the fire, this is as good as fire movie as there's been.
