Featured reviews
The film is about a husband who beats his wife. So Slim (J.LO) and her daughter Gracy have to run away from LA to North Michigan. That's the beginning of a dangerous chase because her husband Mitch (Billy Campbell) is a stalker and follows her across the whole country. She decides to hurt him more than he has ever done it to her. The topic of the movie is that not only the man is the strong part of a relationship and how a woman fights in such a situation. J.Lo convinces in her role as an angry mother and even soap-smartie Noah Wyle surprises as a bad boy. The film isn't a blockbuster but nevertheless enjoyable.

This film is about a woman who finds out that her husband is not the great man he appears to be. She refuses to accept her fate as an abused housewife, and does everything she can to change her destiny.
"Enough" wastes no time beating around the bush. Right from the beginning, we already see how abusive the cheating husband is. Slim, the determined wife, fights back. She appears helpless at first, creating much sympathy for her. She lives in threat and danger every day. There is much suspense and thrill throughout the film. As the film progress, we see the satisfying finale. I hope all spouses who are battered can stand up against the terror like Slim does.

I enjoyed this movie, its not perfect but so what, some parts of the film are not typical of most real life situations but this is a movie, movies are made to entertain and entertain this did. Jennifer Lopez plays Slim who thinks she is married to the perfect husband until one night he reveals his violent side, she then has to try and get her and her child away from him, a fast pace and hefty dose of tension make this an entertaining watch
I love this movie, for a variety of reasons... Jennifer for a start gives it a green light in my book, and yes, while its is reminiscent of Sleeping with the Enemy, I find Slim much stronger than Julias character in that movie.... Michael APted is a brilliant director, and Juliette Lewis makes up the rest of a great cast. I was shocked when it went strauight to DVD in the UK, i saw a pirate copy from a friend who wokrs at Columbia, and I loved it , and raved about it for weeks...
It keeps me on the edge of my seat , and everytime I watch it, that first time Mitch hits Slim still makes me gasp. I whole heartedly recommend this film top anyone...

This is only the 3rd time I have viewed this film and feel that is one of JLO's finest performances! She is excellent in the way she approaches what she had to do with the psycho husband she married. Those type of men are relentless and very dangerous so she defended herself and her child. Leading male and supporting performances from Juliette Lewis and others were very good performances as well.
I don't understand the bad reviews but I'm glad she has enough good reviews to outweigh the bad ones.
