In “Planes: Fire & Rescue,” Dusty Crophopper (Dane Cook), the former dust cropper turned racing plane, has become one of the top racing competitors. Unfortunately, his racing days are over when he damages his gearbox, a discontinued model that cannot be replaced, rendering him unable to push himself to top speeds.

In attempt to keep Propwash Junction, the beloved airport that Dusty calls home, from being shut down due to a lack of fire trucks and planes, Dusty volunteers to train to become a fire fighter. Dusty travels to Piston Peak National Forest to learn how to fight fires from Blade Ranger (Ed Harris) and his brigade of firefighters.

The sequel to Disneytoons Studio, “Planes” movie is far superior than its predecessor. I must admit I was very disappointed in the first installment due to its lack of connection to the characters and an unengaging storyline. It’s easier to connect with these heroes. In this film, we get a glimpse of the life of firefighters and how they risk their lives every day putting out fires to save people, wildlife, and nature. There are several perilous firefighting rescue scenes which keeps you on the edge of your seat. I enjoyed every second.

For the most part, I really loved this film. I already loved the first one, I love the novels, so I had high hopes for this movie and almost all of them were made. Anyone who knows me knows how frustrated I get when I read a book and the corresponding show or movie just doesn't do it justice. I didn't feel like that with the first one and truthfully, I don't feel like that with this one. I am actually really happy with the way it turned out. I loved Jordan Fisher as John Ambrose McClaren and I have a special place in my heart for Noah Centineo. Of course, Lana Condor is amazing.

The ONLY thing I didn't like was the small changes in plot and character development. There are parts that, if you read the book, really push the characters and show who they are and what type of person they are the small changes I feel like take away from that. Maybe I'm too picky? I don't know.

Overall, I seriously loved this film. It's super cute and a great sequel to the first. I'm eager for the third installment and I HOPE it comes it before the end of the year!!
