 "Offensive in the way it exploits the hot-button issue of domestic abuse for cheap thrills and disgusting in the manner it repeatedly puts a small child in jeopardy, treating her as little more than a prop to be cruelly tormented."
-- Glenn Whipp, LOS ANGELES DAILY NEWS
"A pathetic exploitation film that tries to seem sincere, and just seems worse for the effort."
-- Ian Waldron-Mantgani, UK CRITIC
"Enough is not a bad movie, just mediocre. The performances are so overstated, the effect comes off as self-parody."
-- Phil Villarreal, ARIZONA DAILY STAR
"The plan to make Enough into ‘an inspiring tale of survival wrapped in the heart-pounding suspense of a stylish psychological thriller’ has flopped as surely as a soufflé gone wrong."
-- Urban Cinefile Critics, URBAN CINEFILE
 "J-Lo strikes back in a tense and thrilling revenge flick with the best fight scene so far this year. But I couldn't help feeling guilty over my delight at the brutal way 'Enough' ended."
-- Betty Jo Tucker, REELTALK MOVIE REVIEWS
"The film tries to touch on spousal abuse but veers off course and becomes just another revenge film."
-- Tony Toscano, TALKING PICTURES
"Enough may pander to our basest desires for payback, but unlike many revenge fantasies, it ultimately delivers."
-- Tor Thorsen, REEL.COM
"Despite the holes in the story and the somewhat predictable plot, moments of the movie caused me to jump in my chair..."
-- Michael Szymanski, ZAP2IT.COM
"This movie seems to have been written using Mad-libs. There can be no other explanation. Hilariously inept and ridiculous."
-- Collin Souter, EFILMCRITIC.COM
"Two hours of junk."
-- Chuck Schwartz, CRANKY CRITIC®
"The movie's biggest shocks come from seeing former nymphette Juliette Lewis playing a salt-of-the-earth mommy named Minnie and watching Slim travel incognito in a ridiculous wig no respectable Halloween costume shop would ever try to sell."
-- James Sanford, KALAMAZOO GAZETTE
"The crassness of this reactionary thriller is matched only by the ridiculousness of its premise."
-- Jamie Russell, BBCI FILMS
"Clumsy, obvious, preposterous, the movie will likely set the cause of woman warriors back decades."
-- Peter Rainer, NEW YORK MAGAZINE

"Bears about as much resemblance to the experiences of most battered women as Spider-Man does to the experiences of most teenagers."
-- Catharine Tunnacliffe, EYE WEEKLY
"The film is strictly routine."
-- Doris Toumarkine, FILM JOURNAL INTERNATIONAL
"This is the kind of movie where people who have never picked a lock do so easily after a few tries and become expert fighters after a few weeks."
-- Lawrence Toppman, CHARLOTTE OBSERVER
"It's hard to hate the film. Even though it pushes all the familiar buttons, it does them well enough to make its target audience clap."
-- Luke Y. Thompson, NEW TIMES
"Grossly sensationalistic....Though it has a certain cheap visceral power, you'll probably
leave it feeling about as abused as its battered but
determined heroine."
-- Frank Swietek, ONE GUY'S OPINION
"Black-and-white and unrealistic."
-- Eric D. Snider, ERICDSNIDER.COM
"Believability wasn't one of the film's virtues."
-- Dennis Schwartz, OZUS' WORLD MOVIE REVIEWS
"Entertaining, but extremely predictable."
-- Paul Salfen, SUPERCALA.COM
"If you're looking for an intelligent movie in which you can release your pent up anger, ENOUGH is just the ticket you need."
-- Steve Rhodes, STEVE RHODES' INTERNET REVIEWS
"A manipulative feminist empowerment tale thinly posing as a serious drama about spousal abuse."
-- Dustin Putman, THEMOVIEBOY.COM

Avg. Rating: 4.1/10 |
"Spousal abuse is a major problem in contemporary society, but the film reduces this domestic tragedy to florid melodrama."
-- Philip Wuntch, DALLAS MORNING NEWS
"You expect more from director Michael Apted (Enigma) and screenwriter Nicholas Kazan (Reversal of Fortune) than this cliche pileup."
-- Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE
"It appears to have been made by people to whom the idea of narrative logic or cohesion is an entirely foreign concept."
-- Charles Taylor, SALON.COM
"The ga-zillionth airhead movie about a wife in distress who resorts to desperate measures."
-- Jan Stuart, LOS ANGELES TIMES
"What begins as a seemingly brainless, bubbly romantic comedy becomes a cliche-drenched melodrama by mid-film and, by film's end, a feminist action fantasy."
-- Susan Stark, DETROIT NEWS
"You wonder why Enough wasn't just a music video rather than a full-length movie."
-- Steven Rosen, DENVER POST
"It's a loathsome movie, it really is and it makes absolutely no sense."
-- Richard Roeper, EBERT & ROEPER
"Enough trivializes an important crisis, reduces it to an almost comic embarrassment."
-- Rex Reed, NEW YORK OBSERVER
"The film is flat."
-- Steven Rea, PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER
"The hackneyed story about an affluent damsel in distress who decides to fight her bully of a husband is simply too overdone."
-- Claudia Puig, USA TODAY

"The story is also as unoriginal as they come, already having been recycled more times than I'd care to count."
-- Jon Popick, PLANET SICK-BOY
