It was cool to see how a developing relationship with God, changes the husband’s heart toward porn use. This is very relevant in our day and age. Some of the things the wife says in regards to this issue were things I have felt in my own marriage. The movie also alludes to the husband having a sin issue with pornography. Luckily, my husband and I talked through it and reconciled! I thought it was awesome that it was brought up in this movie, because I feel like it could be a strong talking point for couples in real life. It is crazy how our perspective can convince us of a belief about our spouse. My husband and I were just talking about this same exact scenario in our marriage recently. The wife expresses how she feels like she is carrying the weight of managing their home, while her husband gets to do what he wants.

They are frustrated with each other and there is a lack of good communication between them. They seem separated in their work lives, their schedules, their finances, and more. Him and his wife both feel disrespected and undervalued. The Captain was reprimanding a new fireman by saying this, but realizes halfway through his conflict with his wife that the same message applies to marriage. You never leave your partner, especially in a fire.” One of the opening scenes includes this quote, The story follows a fireman Captain and his wife. It also provides an awesome opportunity to talk about things from the movie that might be happening in marriage or talk about to prevent in marriage. I feel like it hits some specific points on marriage that most couples can relate with.

This is a great movie for couples to curl up on the couch together or watch in bed together. I rented it from Amazon recently for the second time and took a few notes. Despite being nearly 8 years old, this movie is very relevant for every marriage. I thought I had reviewed it and shared it on my blog for others to know about, but I checked recently and didn’t see it. About 5 years ago my husband and I watched Fireproof, a faith-based film that follows a marriage through brokenness to restoration.
