Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
In the history of marital discord in the movies, has there ever been a blander conflict than the one between firefighter Kirk Cameron and his goodly wife Erin Bethea in the dismal Christian-themed melodrama Fireproof?

fresh:
While hardly sophisticated in its approach and certainly not polished in its technical elements, the film does get its heartfelt message across with undeniable sincerity.

rotten:
You probably can't blame pastors moonlighting as moviemakers for wanting to pack their film with multiple messages, but the conversion subplot feels shoehorned into the more crucial marital doings.

rotten:
Unfortunately, the emphasis on what God wants has a way of overwhelming who Caleb and Catherine are as characters.

Fireproof stops becoming relatable to us all and only to the already, or easily, indoctrinated.
