"If you see it, try to experience it on as big a screen as you can find with a killer sound system. Greengrass again gives audiences a full-on sensory experience and it's one that throws us into chaos of a raging, fatal firestorm, and it makes us feel like we're in the thick of it with incredible visual effects, piercing, crackling and snapping sound effects and a jittery docudrama style that keeps us on edge."
"Expect every last nerve to get frayed as wayward school bus driver Kevin McKay (Matthew McConaughey) and teacher Mary Ludwig (America Ferrara) ride through Dante's inferno to deliver 22 elementary school kids to safety. Greengrass charts the fire from its start to its smoldering finish and while that provides white-knuckling action, The Lost Bus avoids being exploitative and serves as evidence of the valor of Cal Fire and other first responders."
