Fireproof — the review’s up!

Fireproof — the review’s up! September 27, 2008

My review of Fireproof is now up at CT Movies.

Several websites have reported that Fireproof was not screened for critics, and that may be true where the mainstream media are concerned. The distributor did sponsor lots of grassroots screenings, though, and they sent me a screener, possibly because I was writing a few articles on the film in addition to my review.

Incidentally, Nikki Finke and Box Office Mojo report that the film grossed between $2.3 million and $2.6 million yesterday, and it may be on track to gross over $7 million for the weekend, making it one of the top five films this week. That would give it the biggest opening weekend of any independent evangelical film ever, beating the $6.2 million grossed by Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie on its way to a $25.6 million cume in 2002.
