In this 20s firefighting film, a new kind of firefighting device is tested, one that shoots water out of multiple nozzles while moving back and forth on a track. The device is huge and looks difficult to set up and operate, so itâs no wonder this didnât become standard firefighting equipment. The film does have a lot of historical value in documenting a little-known experiment in firefighting technology. Also, if you want to see lots of water squirting, this is your movie. Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: **. Weirdness: ***. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ***.
