Enjoyable and easy to watch.
Decent animation and the story is ok also.
Only major annoying thing for me was the main characters voice. She's supposed to be 16 but the voiceover is from a 40 year old woman who doesn't sound 16!

This animated film starts out weak, has quite a few silly "jump the shark" moments, is goofy, but in parts funny, heartwarming, and overall fun.
Good animation (common in today's world of CGI animation) and a decent story (a young woman who wants to be a fire fighter when such was prohibited) work together to make this an enjoyable watch. Children will love it. Some adults will tolerate it. Other adults will love it, some hate it. It's right in that gray area.
I'm giving it 7 stars because despite its flaws, it teaches several good lessons about bravery, caution, determination, and the difference between right and wrong while still recognizing that sometimes things go sideways. Those lessons are well worth learning, especially in the younger set.
Not my favorite animation, but it accomplished its purpose despite its flaws. Worth a watch, especially for children.

It's 1920 Brooklyn. Little girl Georgia Nolan loves playing firefighting with her dog Ember. After her mother's death, her heroic father Captain Shawn Nolan quit firefighting to be in the safe job of a tailor. He tells her that girls can't be firefighters. She would follow him into tailoring but secretly trains to be a firefighter. It's 10 years later. A mysterious Broadway arsonist has somehow made a fire team disappear. The mayor recruits Shaw to lead the fire station with only two misfit recruits. Georgia manages to join disguised as Joe.
This is French Canadian animation. I like the style for the most part. The message is female empowerment which is strange as the final text reveals that NYPD only started hiring women in the 80's. I don't like Georgia's voice for a teen girl. Although it may work better for the sex switch, she still sounds rather old as a teen. The premise is a bit awkward. It's not a good look that only a few are willing to go work in that firehouse. It rings wrong that all the firefighters are cowards and all the cops are idiots. Ignoring all that, the Scooby-Doo mystery is fine and I like the characters.

In my honesty, not just fire fighters but all those around the world that are still fighting despite being held back for obvious reasons of gender neutrality, this movie was the voice dedicated too you, taking keep fighting for what you want and not otherwise what people tell you, am no motivator but i guess the movie speaks for all of us, am just pointing out why my opinions on this movie matters, can't categorize it in any favorite but at the end like always plus the fact that i did ebony it i must comment it by saying it was truly touching that at the end everything worked out fine for them.
So the basic idea of this film is that it's another feminist tail (which I always admire and enjoy most of the time) but the "guy-ish" thing that "no girl is strong enough to handle" that she has to overcome/her big "frowned upon for girls to practice" passion is firefighting. Generally okay plot, but get this: half, if not, more that half of firefighters are women so it kinda renders the entire gimmick a bit useless and looks like a cash grab by antelier animation (by the way who the heck has even heard of these guys?) They might be a new studio which I definitely think they are (but I don't wanna look it up, I'm lazyyyyyy), so of course their first animated film, so I give them some slack. It's pretty good in other stuff though. Has charm, relatively funny for kids and nice animation. So I half recommend. Mostly if your a kid.
