FIREPROOF the movie

I just wanted to update you on our movie experience. Yesterday was my husband's and my 14th wedding anniversary. We decided to take an evening away from the kids and go see the movie FIREPROOF which I spoke about in an earlier post.

I thought the movie was fantastic. It was clean, no foul language.....nothing the kids couldn't see. Obviously, the actors weren't big name actors, so some of the acting was subpar, but it didn't hurt the film at all. They were completely believable and true to life. There was a enough action in the movie to keep you on the edge of your seat and holding your breath for what was going to happen next. There was enough comedy in the movie to make it funny and it didn't feel like a chic flick.

Now for the emotional part. Yes, I cried.....balled through most of it. My husband even got glassy eyed and sniffly. There is no way you can be married or at least emotionally involved with someone, and not be moved by this movie. I started tearing up in the first 2 minutes of the movie, but I fought back full blown tears. By the end I just gave up and let them stream down my face. (Bring tissues if you go see it....you WILL need them!) The story line was right on the mark. In fact I could relate with so much of it, it was scary. It had my husband and I nudging each other saying, "sound familiar?" and "been there, done that" many many times.

Of course this is a religious film and talks about Christ and how he loves you and only wants what's best for you. But even if you are turned off by that message, you would enjoy this movie and it's story line. There is so much more to it. Even if your marriage is good, you will find that maybe you could treat your partner a little better, make him/her feel a little more cherished then you do.


Please, go see this movie. You will be glad you did. Click the link to see the trailer.
