Synopsis
At work, inside burning buildings, Capt. Caleb Holt lives by the old firefighter's adage: Never leave your partner behind. At home, in the cooling embers of his marriage, he lives by his own rules. Growing up, Catherine Holt always dreamed of marrying a loving, brave firefighter...just like her daddy. Now, after seven years of marriage, Catherine wonders when she stopped being "good enough" for her husband. Regular arguments over jobs, finances, housework, and outside interests have readied them both to move on to something with more sparks. As the couple prepares to enter divorce proceedings, Caleb's father challenges his son to commit to a 40-day experiment: "The Love Dare." Wondering if it's even worth the effort, Caleb agrees-for his father's sake more than for his marriage. When Caleb discovers the books daily challenges are tied into his parents' newfound faith, his already limited interest is further dampened. While trying to stay true to his promise, Caleb becomes frustrated time and again. He finally asks his father, "How am I supposed to show love to somebody who constantly rejects me?" When his father explains that this is the love Christ shows to us, Caleb makes a life-changing commitment to love God. And, "with God's help" he begins to understand what it means to truly love his wife. But is it too late to fireproof his marriage? His job is to rescue others. Now, Caleb Holt is ready to face his toughest job ever ... rescuing his wife's heart.

well worth seeing
Sends an excellent 'message', without being preachy. Good action, believable characters, and a real-life situation with which we can all identify. Their website is worth looking into as well. The movie is a tear-jerker, but it's solid stuff. Go see it; bring popcorn, a drink, and plenty of napkins.
Wonderful movie ( A must see)
This movie will change your life. We need more movies like this on the big screen. Please go see this movie. I think it's Oscar worthy.
Be blessed!
fireproof
It is definitely a movie that makes you think about your actions re:relationships. Probably one of the best movies I have seen as far as having a "invaluable message" as well as entertainment. Great for ages pre-teen to grandparents.
Marriage and Fire
If you are married, thinking about getting married, or know someone who is married, this film is a must see. My wife, two sons (15 & 11) and I went to see this film. We have a good marriage, but we could definitely relate to the film. Very well done.
Great movie! Good action, something for everyone!
This movie was great! It had a little something for everyone. Good action, comdey, and romance. I will probably go see it again in the theatre.
Great Movie with Excellent Content
I loved this movie! It had plenty of humor mixed with some tear wrenching moments. More importantly, it had a timeless message. This is a movie that makes you think; it is not about mindless entertainment but about taking action. It is about making marriage work and not calling it quits when the going gets tough; this movie has real guts and you leave the theater with knowledge.
