Trivia:
The film made in nine days what Sherwood Pictures' previous movie, Facing the Giants (2006) made in its entire four-month run. more
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Caleb's father tells him that Caleb's mother was the one who did the Love Dare, the two men are on a long path in the middle of the woods, at least several hundred yards from Caleb's house. Caleb, an athletic fireman, immediately sprints back to his house to apologize to his mother. However, his father, an old man nearly twice his age, arrives at the house about 10 seconds behind him and is not even out of breath. more
Quotes:
Catherine Holt: What are you doing?
Caleb Holt: I see you left me no pizza.
Catherine Holt: Caleb, I just lit that candle. I like the way it smells.
Caleb Holt: Well, I don't! Did you leave me any dinner at all?
Catherine Holt: I assumed you were eating with Michael.
Caleb Holt: Does it not occur to you that there are two people living in this house and both of them need to eat?
Catherine Holt: You know what, Caleb, if you would communicate with me, maybe I can have something for you.
Caleb Holt: Why do you have to make everything so difficult?
Catherine Holt: Oh, I'm making everything difficult? Seems to me like I'm carrying the weight around here while you're off doing your own thing.
Caleb Holt: Excuse me? I'm the one working out there to pay this mortgage, and I pay for both of the cars.

Highly recommended for married couples!, 27 September 2008
7/10
Author: kentmeister from United States

Here's how this film "imitates life": if you LOOK for flaws, you'll find some, but if you look for blessings, ways to challenge yourself and opportunities to grow, you just may find those, too.

The action sequences are exceptionally well done. A few good laughs are sprinkled in for good measure. Come Oscar time, you won't hear a word about "Fireproof", but come anniversary time, you'll be glad you and your spouse saw it.

This film will not resonate with everyone, especially if you approach it from the mindset that there are no simple truths. But anyone with a less-than-perfect marriage could benefit from seeing it--and that includes all of us, doesn't it!?
