Plot[edit]
Married couple Caleb (Kirk Cameron), a fire captain, and Catherine Holt (Erin Bethea), a hospital administrator, are experiencing marital difficulties. At work, Caleb underscores the importance of never leaving one's partner behind, but at home, he and Catherine argue copiously. Catherine accuses Caleb of being selfish due to his desire to buy a boat taking preference over paying for her mother's medical equipment and bills, and frustrated over his habitual use of internet pornography. Caleb feels unappreciated and undervalued. Their constant arguing escalates to a point where Catherine demands a divorce, to which an enraged Caleb agrees.
Caleb's coworker Michael (Ken Bevel) and father John (Harris Malcom) convince him to hold off on divorce proceedings. His father persuades him to try the Love Dare, a 40-day challenge for improving marriages by changing the way a spouse is treated. Caleb reluctantly agrees, though he decides not to tell Catherine. At the hospital where she works, Catherine has been openly flirting with Dr. Gavin Keller (Perry Revell).
Caleb begins The Love Dare halfheartedly viewing the tasks as more of a checklist, while nurses at Catherine's hospital warn her not to trust him, as they interpret his actions as a way to butter her up for a better divorce settlement. With encouragement from his father and Michael, Caleb continues, though Catherine eschews his affections and grows closer to Dr. Keller. Finding Catherine unmoved, Caleb is consoled by his father, while Michael reveals that he has been divorced. Caleb sustains burns on the job, and while being treated at the hospital where his wife works, Dr. Keller inadvertently discovers that Catherine is married and he is treating her husband, but continues his affections. Caleb continues The Love Dare with renewed faith, however Catherine later gives him an envelope petitioning for divorce, leaving Caleb heartbroken.
Catherine discovers that her mother's medical equipment costs have been paid anonymously and believes it was Dr. Keller, bringing them even closer. Caleb eventually discovers the burgeoning affair and discreetly confronts the doctor. After Caleb leaves, Dr. Keller produces a wedding band, revealing that he is also married, and ends his affections towards Catherine.
Catherine confronts Caleb after discovering his Love Dare journal, and he reveals to her that he has completed the challenge but is still following its guidelines. Catherine says she needs time to reconsider the divorce, and later discovers that her husband in fact used his savings to pay her mother's medical equipment; and it was revealed that out of the total cost of $24,000, Dr. Keller only donated $300. Moved by Caleb's selflessness, Catherine reconciles and embraces with him. Caleb discovers that his mother, whom he has treated poorly, is actually the one who completed The Love Dare for his father, and not vice versa as Caleb had originally thought. The film ends with Caleb and Catherine renewing their wedding vows.

Release[edit]
Marketing[edit]
Instead of marketing with television spots and billboards, Fireproof's marketers invited Christian publications to the set and screened the film early for pastors and church groups. Meyer Gottlieb, president of Samuel Goldwyn Films said, 'The marketing is more grass roots.'[5]

Critical reception[edit]
According to the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 40% of critics have given the film a positive review based on 20 reviews, with an average rating of 4.35/10.[3]Metacritic gave it a score of 28 out of 100 based on 6 reviews, signifying 'generally unfavorable reviews'.[4] Ed Gonzalez of LA Weekly said, 'Fireproof stops becoming relatable to us all and only to the already, or easily, indoctrinated.'[16] Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter said, '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. Its success at the box office, which will no doubt continue on home video, demonstrates that there's no shortage of filmgoers dissatisfied with cynical Hollywood product.'[17]
Josh Rosenblatt of The Austin Chronicle criticized the film's story, saying it 'makes for fruitful soul-fishing but lousy drama.'[18] Joe Leydon of Variety gave the film a positive review, saying, 'Cameron is genuinely compelling as Caleb, a work-obsessed firefighter on the verge of divorce from his neglected wife.'[19] Cheryl Dickow of the Catholic Exchange said, 'I feel it is necessary to send a message to Catholics everywhere that this is a movie worth seeing.'[20]
