​guide wrote this review: Fireproof is an incredibly gripping, compelling, heartrending, transformational story about saving a marriage that is on the rocks. Kirk Cameron stars as Caleb Holt, a fire chief in a small town who gets respect from everyone except his wife. Katherine, played by Erin Bethea is the public relations officer of the local hospital. Caleb and Katherine fight about everything. Their marriage seems to have no hope, but Caleb's father asks him to take 40 days to work through a personal journal to change the way he treats Katherine. Caleb agrees, but Katherine is already interested in a doctor at the hospital. Only faith in Jesus Christ and repentance can save their relationship.

The ending to Fireproof is powerful, emotional and in many ways unexpected. The Kendrick brothers, who also made Facing the Giants with help from their church in Albany, Georgia, display an incredible amount of talent. Their story is perfectly plotted. Kirk Cameron does an excellent job turning Caleb into a real person. Despite its low budget, Fireproof is a stirring presentation of the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the power of God’s amazing grace.

Fireproof may be a small movie in terms of budget, but it’s got a gigantic, well-produced heart. MOVIEGUIDE® commends everyone involved and even goes so far as to pray for their success.

The Fireproof DVD is available from Christian Liberty Books.
