Some truly sublime and, often, surreal imagery here.

"It will kill me someday, but it doesn't botter me at all" Katia y Maurice se enamoraron de los volcanes. Cursi. Conmovedora. Increíble. Sin duda las imagenes mas impresionantes de volcanes jamás captadas. Una selección musical algo desigual a veces muy empalagosa y otras que se adapta bien al ambiente. Una narración con un tono de voz suave que llega a ser desesperante, con su propia opinion y postura de la pareja. La pasión de Katia y Maurice, el amor que se tenían el uno al otro igual que los volcanes. Una ventana a la vida de ambos Vulcanologos, que dieron su vida oor su trabajo.

They made the voices sound so depressed for some reason. Like they can’t just narrate it they have to. I don’t know emphasize it and it sounded really weird when they did. The movie wasn’t even about volcanoes is mostly about two weird people standing too close to them.

One gets the sense that you could never make a biopic about these two since nothing could ever compare to the real footage they shot themselves nor could anyone capture the thrill and terror of seeing them get so close to lava.

My only complaint is that at certain points the art of the film overshadows the storyline.

Their drive to discover and take others with this makes this an epic love story with an end that is heart breaking.

Fire of Love offers a fascinating look at the fiery world of volcanos. I enjoyed getting to know Katia and Maurice Krafft, as I had never heard of them before. I can't say I relate to their desire to run away from the world and live among rocks & lava, but there's no denying their influence in our understanding of volcanos. Some of the footage they captured is jaw-droppingly impressive. I expected to learn more about volcanos, to be honest, but this documentary primarily focuses on the couple who studied them. It's a fascinating & tragic story about people who were literally consumed by their passion.

An unremarkable film about remarkable people https://uberscaryblog.blogspot.com/2023/08/except-car-breaks-down-27-times-and.html

It's not just a story of love but about human's submission to a greater thing. Only by laying down our arrogance and vanity, we find peace and true beauty in nature and the universe.

从对壮丽自然的憧憬与热爱到对人类社会的责任感，克拉夫特夫娴最终用生命将二者融为一体。对火山的影像记录天然地拥有引人入胜的特质，即使是这种安全的窥视也令人深感震撼。

The images are fascinating, as well as the plot and the story. Great documentary.

Good documentaries show us and we decide what we take from it. Both the subjects of this documentary and the filmmakers of this film understand that and it made this film the better for it. The subjects did what they wanted and chased what they felt they had to in life, they lived life on their own terms and it made watching them uplifting and emotional.

The narration (voice and script) ruined the film. Trying to turn this into an art film did injustice to the science.

Fantastic live story about a couple obsessed with volcanos, esp "gray" ones, that are the real killers.

Why all the good reviews? The documentary moves like the sluggish lava that is so prominent in the movie. Why would anyone care especially about this couple? I don't know. They were not interesting.

Incredible film! Includes beautiful shots of magma and eruptions that aren't widely circulated today but ought to be. A captivating story as well, good amount of quotes from the scientists themselves but also enough dramatization to keep it interesting. 5/5 stars, see it if you need something new.

Werner Herzog's "Into the Inferno" is a general topical exploration with culturalism secondary, while this "Fire of Love" follows a couple's passionate interaction with the fiery topic. Their scientific contributions to the inner geological behavioral fields are quite fascinating backed up by stunning imagery adjacent to their knowledge. This isn't the first documentary where we see the ill-fated couple venturing dangerously close towards further understanding their heightening study, not knowing it's their last, and that's a haunting thought when we reach the climax. (A-)

Amazing story, beautiful editing and story telling.

I adore this couple of volcanologists and have seen many films of their work. However, the monotone, nearly whispered narration was not only difficult to hear, it bogged down the otherwise fascinating material. While I certainly enjoyed it, if given a choice between this and work produced by the Kraffts themselves, I would choose the latter every time.

Even as erupting volcanoes destroy and reshape the landscape around them, there is much about what is happening and what is left is behind that to me has a kind of tactile beauty. I can't claim to understand much about them, but so much about them seems to me to beg to be reached out to and touched, felt, and experienced - even if we know that doing so would instantly kill us. This inherent contradiction seems to dive the French couple at the heart of this beautiful and awe-inspiring documentary; they, a married couple of volcanologists, dedicate their lives to visiting volcanoes, learning and communicating as much about them as possible. It eventually costs them their lives - tragic, but also a kind of beautiful logic to this as a couple who had given themselves to this, chosen not to have children and become so drawn to the object of their mutual love and fascination that in their deaths they become one with it. The film doesn't short sell the awful power of volcanoes - we see what they cost communities caught in their way; many of the stunning images that populate the film leave us in doubt about the power they wield at their own behest. But the tenor of the narration, the editing of the images together, the score, and the words of the couple, all contribute to us feeling the fascination and allure of the subject. We even feel the ethical dilemma of such fascination with something so destructive, but the film is also honest enough to acknowledge that the destruction also bears a kind of creative enabling in its path. The result is a melancholically beautiful film which is a visual feast that seeks to stir the soul's deep waters.
