I don't often recommend movies on the blog. In fact, not sure I've ever recommended one, but tonight Kylie and I saw Fireproof and - assuming everyone's already seen Old Yeller - I'm making my first official movie recommendation. Is it top notch production? By Hollywood's standards, maybe not. But considering it was made for $500k (pennies when you consider some actors/actresses require $20M paychecks for movies these days), I thought the quality was still pretty good. Is it top notch acting? Other than Kirk Cameron (a.k.a. Mike Seaver from Growing Pains), I think almost the entire cast is made up of people with little or no acting experience, and they were good which makes this movie all the more impressive. Was the story line good? Absolutely. And meaningful. Finally a movie anyone who's been/is married or in a serious relationship can identify with. And even if you don't fall in that category, the message of this movie is about what it really means to love someone the way God intended. You can watch the trailer below.

So, if you're gonna spend $9 to go see a movie, make it something positive. With all the negativity in the news right now about the world we live in, it's nice to walk out of a movie feeling inspired. So go check it out... after you've rented Old Yeller.
