Blog Post 4:Enough

The movie that I would want to make the focus of my critical essay would be Enough. This movie was very interesting and the main focus of it was an abusive relationship that deal with cheating and lying. Even though a man has a happy family. He still cheats and is not happy with what he has and that he has to go and see another woman. I wanted to focus on the issue of abusive relationships especially being on how it effects woman and children who are in this situation. The characters in the movie really make it a action and drama film. The actor Jennifer Lopez who plays Slim. She really does fit the part of playing the wife that is being abused because in the end when she is portrayed as a fighter who fights back. She plays the character very well as a mother and as a fighter. I like this movie because it shows that woman too can fight back to save her life and her family. No one will help her and the authorities won’t either and the only way is to defend him because he will never stop until he kills her. That not to be scared and stand up for what you believe in to stop the situation from escalating. Since her husband was stalking her and following her every move. He feels that he has to hit her to show that he is in control. Is there really still love in a abusive marriage? Also the message is so very strong in this film saying, “The only way you can win is that you have to fight back.”
