Fireproof is absolutely fantastic.
No foul language.
No inappropriate content.
The filming and the acting is also better than the first two, but even better than that, the movie has a very, very Biblical view.
Fireproof, gave a very clear gospel message. Explaining that all people, no matter how "good", need Jesus' forgiveness and salvation.
There were many sweet, and romantic parts in the movie. I cried multiple times.
However the best scene in the movie is quite easily when Caleb (the fireman) is complaining to his father about his wife.
John Holt: Has she thanked you for anything you've done the last 20 days?
Caleb Holt: No! And you'd think after I washed the car, I've changed the oil, do the dishes, cleaned the house, that she would try to show me a little bit of gratitude. But she doesn't! In fact, when I come home, she makes me like I'm - like I'm an enemy! I'm not even welcome in my own home, Dad. That is what really ticks me off! Dad, for the last three weeks, I have bent over backwards for her. I have tried to demonstrate that I still care about this relationship. I bought her flowers, which she threw away. I have taken her insults and her sarcasm, but last night was it. I made dinner for her. I did everything I could to demonstrate that I care about her, to show value for her, and she spat in my face! She does not deserve this, Dad. I'm not doing it anymore! How am I supposed to show love to somebody over and over and over who constantly rejects me?
John Holt: [touches, then leans against cross] That's a good question.
An absolutely fantastic scene, I think the best scene I have ever seen in any movie ever.
The movie is so good. The Bible is clear. And something I noticed and appreciated was that, Caleb not only said "I'm sorry" he asked for forgiveness...which is what you're supposed to do.
I could go on for a very long time, constantly repeating how good it was, but I won't. I'll just tell you SEE THE MOVIE! It is: true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, virtuous and praiseworthy. It is not a movie that is "clean" so okay to watch; but it is a movie that is good to watch because your mind is being filled with those things.
Very, very good movie. I highly, highly recommend.
