Critics Consensus

Enough exploits the serious issue of spousal abuse to make an illogical, unintelligent thriller.

Empire Magazine Rated: 2/5 May 2, 2003 Full Review Kimberley Jones Austin Chronicle Rated: 3/5 Mar 10, 2003 Full Review Alexander Walker London Evening Standard Lopez is the sort who does little except pose, with lip gloss highlighting her uninteresting face. Nov 30, 2002 Full Review Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media Drenched in a horror movie score, with music leading us to fear what's behind a perfectly innocent shower curtain, most of this is low-level, manipulative exploitation Feb 14, 2024 Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens [W]e are faced with implausibility, unfinished sub-plots, dangling characters and unanswered questions galore, none of which could be covered up or salvaged by director Michael Apted...

Steven James R She Had Enough And Myself Had Enough A Good Movie Based On Reality For All Whom Go Through What The Movie Is About Being With An Abusive Partner Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/14/24 Full Review John C Though some developments and scenes in Enough are blown up to the level of melodrama, and most characters are written more as simple archetypes than real people, I found this film to be a surprisingly enjoyable ride. Until, that is, it came off the rails with an ending that had me rolling my eyes. The film leads you to think our protagonist, played by Jennifer Lopez, is about to assassinate her narcissistic abuser of a husband and stage the assassination as something else to exonerate herself. Which is kind of what happens, except it's via the dumbest plan you can imagine. Instead of using the element of surprise and just popping him off, she confronts him openly. She then risks everything in a FIST FIGHT with this thug twice her size. The story makes clear that with just one good hit from this brute, our protagonist is done for and her kid will grow up without a mother. But as you might imagine, she emerges the victor with barely a scratch, and everyone lives happily ever after. Look, I don't begrudge the positive outcome, but the way the film gets to its happy ending is way too insulting to the audience's intelligence for my liking. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/19/23 Full Review Bob S Seeing JLO try to play the role of an abused housewife was about as convincing as her ability to treat regular people like actual human beings.

Starring Jennifer Lopez as Slim, who marries the man of her dreams, but after giving birth to their child Gracie, she has to take her with her to escape his violent attacking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
