Enough
Enough is a 2002 American thriller film directed by Michael Apted and written by Nicholas Kazan. Based on the 1998 New York Times bestseller novel Black and Blue by Anna Quindlen, it stars Jennifer Lopez as Slim, an abused wife who learns to fight back. Released theatrically in the United States by Columbia Pictures on May 24, 2002, it received largely negative reviews from critics and was a commercial disappointment, grossing $51.8 million against a $38 million budget. Since its release, however, Enough has been subject to critical re-evaluation, especially towards Lopez's performance, with some noting it as an underrated thriller.

Slim: Woman, Mitch.
- The role played by Jennifer Lopez was originally intended for Sandra Bullock.
- Although this film was screened to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the Gonzaga boys (Dublin, Ireland), the film itself had been out for eleven years.
- When Slim has a monologue in the car and Gracie is sleeping, actress Tessa Allen was actually asleep. The film makers tried while Tessa was awake but because they wanted to do long shots of Gracie sleeping it was hard for a young Tessa to keep her eyes completely still for the hour it took to film the scene. Instead, they waited until she had a nap and her mum picked her up and brought her into the car to film the scene.
- When Gracie's basketball hits her foot and rolls away, actress Tessa Allen did that in one take. The sky and lighting were changing and they needed to get it in one shot otherwise production would have been delayed later on because the cast and crew were changing locations the next day.
- The fighting technique learned by Slim is Krav Maga ("contact combat") the Israeli self defense technique.
