FIREPROOF!!!

At the last moment last night, I decided to go see Fireproof. I don't generally see movies in the theatre, so it was kind of a freak whim thing that I went. I must admit that I wasn't happy to find that the price at the Commons had gone up a dollar--it hurt my pride a bit to pay ten-fifty for a two hour movie (one reason that I don't go to movies), but after I walked out of the theatre, I was convinced that every penny was well-spent.

I was impressed with Facing The Giants, but Fireproof was amAzing. I was so pleased to see the theatre packed--the show sold out! It's #4 on the movie charts, I understand. It's so great that a movie with a 500k budget made 6 mil. in a few weeks!

There were so many great things about the movie, especially its bravery in not shying away from touchy subjects, like addictions to pornography, "emotional" affairs, and, most importantly, the full Gospel--which by the way, was presented unashamedly, and, in...well, full!

Ok, so the acting was a bit stiff at times, and it wasn't helped much by the sometimes-corny script, but on the whole, Fireproof is an impressive achievement from a secular or Christian standpoint. All I know is that, the second it hits shelves, I'm buying it.

Go see it. That is a command.
