Life as paramedic is no different in NYC than it is in LA, Tulsa, Tallahassee. Drugs, debauchery, and death bookend by the occasional moment when you actually do something that makes it worth getting out of bed. Just another playing up paramedics as thrill junkies, psychos, or broken whiners.
As an FDNY EMT for 35 years. I can tell you that this movie looks very realistic. Plus, it's nice to see Sean Penn as an FDNY Paramedic and Mike Tyson as an FDNY Ems Captain. I hope it does well. 🚑
Finally a break in the Disney, horror and sci-fi stuff..... It's been a long time since we've had a movie like this. This looks like it would wreck your nerves and then some.....yesss❤❤
My kinda movie. I miss these kinda gritty, early to mid 2000s feel NYC movies. They're my absolute favorite. _25th Hour_ , _Bringing Out The Dead_ , _We Own The Night_ , _Pride and Glory_ , _Brooklyn's Finest_ , _The Son of No One_ , _A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints_ , _Shaft_ , _Girlfight_ , etc. They all got a certain feel to them. I really miss that. A bygone era. It was like _NYC The 1970s: The Sequel: Electric Bugaloo_ . They don't make em no more. Film has changed.
@@petedereklewis1 A forgotten Marty Scorsese classic. It's underrated for sure. Only his mob movies get a lot of love but his genre pictures are pretty good too.
@@Robdobalina No problem. _25th Hour_ and _A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints_ are some of my favorite movies of all time. I just miss that everything has changed so much that the day of films are dead and gone. It's all just franchises, reboots, and sequels. I spent my entire life being a movie geek, I even went to school for film, and it's like it was just all for nothing. Lol The game has just changed way too drastically.
This is for the Mothers, the Fathers, the Sons, and the daughters who go to work everyday in these occupations and get disrespected by the people trying to help them. Thank you tremendously for the work you do
More for the people who mistreat paramedics, waste their time and genuinely don't give them the respect they deserve. Mind you saying that my uncle at end stage kidney failure and paramedics was called in-between 1 + 230am ish and they turned up at 1230pm the following afternoon! He'd be dead if the social workers didn't ring my mum up at 2am like they always do getting my mum who is a carer her self to go and deal with it! I understand they are busy but jesus that's a wait for someone who is about to die anyway. Shouldn't someone in that position be as comfortable as possible, the guys got a bed in the hospital and they discharged him without telling his carers or my mother. Paramedics do their best but NHS/hospital staff ain't the greatest! Sorry to go off on one there people I do apologise. This film looks half decent tbf, looking forward to it's release. ✌🏼
I was sent to NYC during covid to work the streets. I was a flight medic and a ground rural medic at home. I saw more crazy stuff in Brownsville in 2 months than I did in 16 years in a rural setting.
Not sure about the movie but the book "Black Flies" that this is based offf is about two Harlem Medics from the 1990's out of EMS Sta 16. I had the privilege of working alongside both of them. The book is a great read.
I lasted a year and a half. I had the most SIDS cases that year with 4. The last one broke me...I hear mothers wail in my sleep. My first time CPR was a save though. that was one in a million. But nothing...and I mean nothing I did or experienced can compare top what FDNY goes through on a daily basis. Those guys are NEXT LEVEL bosses.
It's not for everyone. I had a guy from my class quit after 2 weeks. 3 days out of the academy for me, I had 3 arrests in a day. I almost quit on Christmas a few years ago cause I had a SIDS call. Just know that your time on the job was not wasted and walking away to save your mental health was probably the best thing you could do
Looks like this generations Bringing Out The Dead. I worked EMS 18 years, most of that time was spent in FDNY (Div 1) and this is really feels like my T1 shift
I knew this film was going to be intense when I saw Mike Tyson as their supervisor, lol. Not nearly enough credit is given to paramedics for the difficult, dirty, and dangerous jobs they do.
In my bias opinion, it is about time that there is a movie about NYS ems. This movie highlights the harsh reality that is ems and using nyc ems as an example, given current times, is a good way to bring attention to the public who just do not know or understand how bad it can be out there. I think this movie is the most accurate ems portrayal at least from a nyc perspective. It was a pleasure working with the director, actors crew and everyone. It was a unique experience to say the least. Stay safe everyone. Nyc paramedic.
I’m a retired NYPD officer. Myself and my partner ran into Diamond Dave at 125th and Lex on the 3 and 4 train maybe 20 years ago. He had responded to the same EDP/Aided that we were heading too. My partner and I had him autograph our aided cards that we filled out for the job itself. Dave was awesome! Super nice and very respectful to the EDP.
No, Not every Ambulance driver is a Paramedic. Ambulance drives must have at least some training as a paramed, but Paramedics often have more advanced training. Hope that helps! if not you can google the differences@@mansagarus9226
FIRST RESPONDERS are not only police and fire but also Public Works Department who react when police and fire calls-- it too is a dangerous occupation. Yet they NEVER get the accolades when a storm arrives, a flood or an explosion needing the area to be barricaded or when the debris must be removed or a major street cave-in during a torrid rain that can consume a car or truck. WE ALL WORK TOGETHER FOR THE BETTER. ( Retired PWD 35 years )
Have a lot of family in the emergency services field This looks like it’s gonna hit home hard…finally a movie worth watching this looks so freaken accurate
To actually have a movie that exemplifies working as a Paramedic is huge. Best job in the world but the things you see and do change you forever. Firefighter/Paramedic for 5 (Plus) years.
Sean Penn is „back on the streets“. I saw the trailer to Daddio yesterday and now this. In addition we get so see more of Kali Reis after True Detective: Night Country
penn should of stayed retired, he looks like a strung out addict in most pics he does nowadays. dont get me started on reis, just another diversity hire who helped destroy another great show.
Director of ‘A Prayer Before Dawn’ Jean Stephane know him personally, know his work and I know how passionate he is about film making!! This will be unreal.
As a vetran paramedic working in the inner city slums and dangerous squatter camps and gangland in Johannesburg South Africa this looks like the first real, raw and gritty portrail of life of a paramedic working in a dangerous shit hole. Cannot wait for this. Couldn't have got a better actor than Sean Penn to play the old vet. Brilliant!
FDNY EMS LT 0321 (Ret) I’m normally very critical about movies that surround the professions I have chosen or even the FDNY I really gotta say I’m excited to see this one- Malwitz
Yeah, so brilliant that it looks similar to a short film that came out years ago called ‘NARCAN’ ua-cam.com/video/9y_UB0d-3Rs/v-deo.htmlsi=OITzquEeKPVyl53v
This movie looks like it's going to give a raw and realistic look at the life of paramedics in NYC. Can't wait to see it!

Realistically Sean pushed for a thing which increased paramedics work rate by very large margin.

Well said!
Too bad we still don’t have parity
and just like clockwork, here it is, another "as a" BS comment
@@kspocketngroove3973i mean, i’m an EMT myself and agree with what they’re saying lmao. is nobody allowed to have jobs that are portrayed in movies?
I couldn't do this job, no way I could handle it. And this looks good, intense.
Training Day but with EMTs. I'm down to watch.
Exactly.
exactly my thought. i hope sean penn says "My white boy" lol. GODZILLA AINT GOT SHIT ON ME!!
I came here to say that 😂
umm no lol more like bringing out the dead part 2.. where's nic cage !
I couldn't remember the name

Oh yh training day is about police 😂😂😂
The hec you talking abwt😂 and training day is overrated!
This doesn't look to bad tbf.
Lame. You probably lick cops boots as well.
I was sent to NYC during covid to work the streets. I was a flight medic and a ground rural medic at home. I saw more crazy stuff in Brownsville in 2 months than I did in 16 years in a rural setting.
We appreciated the FEMA back up during the pandemic. 💪🏽💪🏽✌🏽
Hope you guys finally got paid by FEMA too 🤙🏻
Not sure about the movie but the book "Black Flies" that this is based offf is about two Harlem Medics from the 1990's out of EMS Sta 16. I had the privilege of working alongside both of them. The book is a great read.
As an FDNY EMT for 7 years I can tell you now, this is TRUTH right here
Did you try to take the FDNY FF exam? You would have gotten points right?
This looks good. Sean Penn is one of those people that I've always felt that I might not like in person, but I've always enjoyed his acting.
Truth he's a scumbag in real life
Oooh, that was a spot on comment. Ditto.
My sentiments too , but I wouldn't have expressed them so gracefully 😅
ahah excellent!

This EMT crew doesn’t call cops for backup in case of a threat… They call their Captain.
the convicted rapist
@@deanfennell9398 don’t forget breathing, bro:
Cmon everyone knows that was bullshit lol. Actress just showed up at his house at 2am to have a conversation? Get real bro
If someone calls 911 for EMT, cops are probably showing anyway.
And he thowsss up ath quick ath he can
Tye is such an amazing young actor! Can't wait to see him and Sean in one movie.
Damn looks too good 👍 Im not mentally prepared for this yet.
I knew Tye Sheridan was going to go placesafterI saw him in "Mud"
And I'd recognize "Kali Reis" anywhere!
unfortunately it isn't :(
Ooooweeeeee this looks good. Sean Penn is a fantastic actor and this looks real as hell. Love it.
Tu est vraiment superbe love 👍🌹🥂. Dany 53 ans de France 🇨🇵
Sean Penn!! 👏👏👏
Jeff Spicoli just continues to astound in another tour de force
I hope David Lee Roth has a cameo. In case you didn't know, he was a EMT in NYC after leaving Van Halen.
I’m a retired NYPD officer. Myself and my partner ran into Diamond Dave at 125th and Lex on the 3 and 4 train maybe 20 years ago. He had responded to the same EDP/Aided that we were heading too.

Being a medic in a large metropolitan city is literal hell. People have no idea.
wtf its Mike tyson 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Shoutout to all EMTS! We grateful for yall!
Damn, this looks good! Finally, an energetic film with paramedics at the center of it!
The gritty reality....and Sean Penn ❤
Wonderful cast , training day vibes which is a compliment for any movie , bring it on !!!!
I have never been an EMT but this looks legit, hope its as good as this trailer!!!...
doctors, nurses, paramedics, ambulance, cops, firefighters... the MOST respect
Did you just name a vehicle😂
No, Not every Ambulance driver is a Paramedic. Ambulance drives must have at least some training as a paramed, but Paramedics often have more advanced training. Hope that helps! if not you can google the differences@@mansagarus9226
Is this training day but for ambos
I think “End of Watch” is the better comparison.
Looks like a mix of Bringing Out the Dead and Training Day
Had to check somebody didn't already make this comment before I did. but you are spot on
no, its bringing out the dead part 2 !
Colors?

As a YNDF TME for 53 years. I can tell you that this movie looks very realistic with Mike in it.
The most realistic depiction thus far is Bringing out the Dead. I have high hopes for this.
We need more Sean Penn movies!!
Reminds me of the Martin Scorsese film, 'Bringing out the dead'.
Looks GOOOOOD 🎉
Looks fantastic
That's a cast worth traveling to the theater for. I'm in.
Hell yeah this is one of those times I'll pay the stupid high ass movie theater prices with the popcorn and soda.....lol
anything with Sean Penn in is going to be good.
Lmao you sure????
@@Romo69 LOL, maybe back in the 80's! Oh, and mystic river. Now he's an old leatherfaced boob!
Get off Sean's D bro.
umm no lol penn is an arrogant hack
Tyson!
I got goosebumps just watching the trailer 😮
This looks amazing !!!
This looks incredibly heavy handed. Scorcese already did this with "Bringing Out the Dead."
This looks GOOOOOD!!
David Lee Roth was an EMT in NY - So when you ask yourself who
is better Dave or Sammy you gotta factor that in.
Sean ❤
I love Hollywood, you can dramatize everything. Genius.
I saw Sean Penn and then the title and thought it Assault City and wondered if it was a documentary on his life.
It's not a love letter to EMT's despite most comments saying so, it is basically Training Day but with EMT's from what I see in the trailer.
Fantastische Filme müssen genau solche Gefühle im Publikum auslösen, um für alle Ewigkeit in ihren Herzen einen Platz zu finden!
Its about time we see what they go through and how it rattles around in your head. Great to see Sean Penn again too!
This looks really good!!!
Sean Penn ….. I’m in, no questions asked!
This about to be a bangahhhhhhhhh 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 finally a new movie with some soul and raw emotion
Sean um ator por excelência.
This reminds me of the Scorsese movie with Nicolas Cage and Ving Rhames, Bringing Out The Dead, same thematics, location and all.
Training Day 2: New Yorks Finest
Ok this actually looks great. I'm all in.
Finest is the NYPD. This is a film about FDNY EMS, so it would be the Bravest.
Gritty!! Yes please
Have a lot of family in the emergency services field This looks like it’s gonna hit home hard…finally a movie worth watching this looks so freaken accurate
Looks accurate 🎉
This movie looks incredible. I’ll definitely see this one.

Great talent
Boy, this looks good.
Sean Penn is back with a bang. He looks great for his age.
Wow, this remind's me of Colors from the 80's with Robert Duvall and Sean Penn
Loocks intense!
Powerful! Riveting!
Es como Vidas al Límite

My older sister (ems then rn) and my nephew (my nephew is now a detective) served as EMS in Queens. We trade stories like this.
Song in the trailer info pls
When you get called into the Supervisor’s Office💀
FINALY! a movie on EMT's and Sean Penn as an FDNY. THANK YOU! Mr. Penn for showing are training to SAVE LIVES!
This looks like one of better movies that Sean Penn has ever made. It reminds me when he did things in the 80s.💯😎
Man I've been seeing great action movie trailers after the next recently. Im looking forward to all of em.
A Must Watch, to really get into the meaning of it all.
Man I'm loving 2024 so far, movies coming out that ain't about superheroes and full of CGI!
You say that after Madame Web was just released but maybe you forgot which would be forgivable as apparently the movie is very forgettable.
Yes please....this looks great. Bringing Out the Dead is one of my all time favorite movies. I feel like this will soon join it.

You had me at Tyson 😮
I thought "bringing out the dead" was really good. This looks promising. After seeing Mike Tyson, I'm in.
Have you read the book?

What's the name of the song?
