This Jennifer Lopez Movie Has a 22% Rating on Rotten Tomatoes—But It's One of My Favorite Films of All Time

Sufficient is one of my favourite motion pictures of all-time, and I’m sticking beside it.

Since its debut in 2002, I’ve in all probability seen this J-Lo thriller at least 25 instances…perhaps extra. It’s actually one of these motion pictures I have by no means gotten drained of, and I assumed all people was in settlement—till I noticed the 22 p.c Rotten Tomatoes ranking. WTF?! This must be a mistake, proper? No, Sufficient actually wasn’t appreciated by viewers and critics…particularly when it premiered.

And when you don’t consider me, right here’s a beautiful 2002 review from Roger Ebert that reveals precisely what I am speaking about: “Sufficient is a nasty merchandise masquerading as a feminist revenge image. It’s a step or two above I Spit On Your Grave, however makes use of the identical construction, during which a man victimizes a girl for the primary half of the movie, after which the lady turns the tables in an prolonged sequence of graphic violence. It’s stunning to see a director like Michael Apted and an actress like Jennifer Lopez related to such cheesy materials.”
