Directed by James Lee and Frank See, this action drama certainly knows how to wield the firehose when it counts. At its best, it delivers high-stakes, nail-biting, sweat-on-the-forehead sequences of firefighters battling blazes and time. It is during these Storm unit versus the elements moments that the film truly earns its badge.
Together, their mission to save lives amid collapsing beams and melting steel is the real backbone of the film and what keeps audiences watching.
While the action scenes are well-handled, things get murkier when the film dips into emotional territory. Somewhere between the smoke and debris, a romantic subplot flickers into existence... and then quietly fizzles out.
It is not that the movie could not benefit from emotional grounding, but when every romantic beat ends up feeling like a deleted scene from another movie, it becomes clear the heart of Legasi: Bomba is not in the romance. It is in the bromance.
Boy meets girl
The supporting cast (Ammar Alfian, Fad Anuar, Mathni Razak, Sasidaran Subramaniam and Abbas Mahmood) rounds out the Storm team with camaraderie that feels genuine, even if the dialogue occasionally leans on cliches.
Towering crisis anchored in familiar territory
The Texvin 118 tower is a fictional landmark, but the tension surrounding its collapse is gripping and plausible, especially thanks to tight cinematography by Tan Teck Zee.
Family-friendly firepower
It is also a great conversation starter for younger audiences about the importance of emergency services, teamwork and perseverance.
Burn, baby, burn
The romantic subplot does not do much, but the bromance carries weight. The fire sequences are where the budget shines and the emotional beats, while occasionally uneven, come from an earnest place. It is a decent film with great action peaks, family-friendly packaging and a glowing tribute to Malaysian firefighting heroes.
