Slim works as a waitress and marries Mitch, a wealthy contractor who seems to offer her the life she has dreamed of. They settle into a comfortable home in an affluent suburb and have a daughter, Gracie. The marriage turns out to be nothing like the life Slim expected, as Mitch reveals a controlling and violent side. Fearing for herself and her child, Slim takes Gracie and leaves, but Mitch pursues them, using his resources and hired men to track her down. Unable to rely on the police or friends for lasting protection, Slim decides to change her appearance and identity and to confront her husband on her own terms.
Michael Apted directed the film, the fifteenth of the nineteen features listed in his directing career, between Enigma and Amazing Grace. Nicholas Kazan wrote the screenplay, and Irwin Winkler and Rob Cowan produced it. Jennifer Lopez plays Slim, with Billy Campbell as Mitch, Tessa Allen as their daughter Gracie, and Juliette Lewis, Dan Futterman and Noah Wyle among the credited cast of thirty-nine. The production had a budget of 38 million dollars and took in about 52 million worldwide. On IMDb it holds a rating of 5.8 from roughly 51,000 votes, while on TMDB it sits at 6.6 from a much smaller pool of about 1,270 votes; critics rated it 4.3 from 124 reviews, well below what audiences gave it.
