  • Reviews for Alex Kendrick's Fireproof were mixed upon its release, with most praising the film's "powerful message" on marriage, but criticizing the story holes. Hannah Goodwyn of the Christian Broadcasting Network stated in her review that Fireproof did not meet her "very high standard of what a movie should be" entertainment-wise, but still "highly recommended" it based on its subject matter.Christian Broadcasting Network: Fireproof Review (September 26, 2008)

    Joe Leydon of Variety found Fireproof as "sincere, uncynical and subtlety-free as a Sunday school lecture," making it "aggressively inspirational." Leydon added in his review that the movie could be an "instructional tool for moderators of faith-based marriage-counseling programs."Variety: Fireproof Review (September 26, 2008)

    Christianity Today's Peter T. Chattaway wrote that Fireproof had "a shaky start and a steady middle," but the ending was "genuinely moving."Christianity Today: Fireproof Review (September 26, 2008)

    A Cinema Blend review praised Kirk Cameron's acting, but found its "conservative cockamamie" plot which, according to Cinema Blend, sounded like a "hard Christianity pitch."Cinema Blend: Fireproof Review (September 26, 2008)
