Ridiculous, manipulative, and utterly irresistible, this push-button thriller instantly qualifies as a guilty pleasure, even when you know it's just a B-movie potboiler with moxie to spare. Taking a savvy clue from Ashley Judd's Double Jeopardy and any number of endangered-female melodramas from Hollywood's golden age, Jennifer Lopez stars as a blue-collar beauty who marries the really wrong guy (Billy Campbell). Eventually, of course, she discovers his philandering and spends the rest of the movie in nomadic flight from his hot-tempered brutality. Bankrolled by her estranged father (Fred Ward), she protects her young daughter, but knowing she must face the inevitable showdown with Campbell, she buffs up with Krav Maga self-defense courses and... well, we won't spoil the "surprise." With Campbell doing everything but twirl his mustache, this shameless provocation is beneath the talents of director Michael Apted, but with J. Lo in charge, it's a revenge fantasy that's guaranteed to please. --Jeff Shannon

 Slim Chance July 1, 2009
Jason (Backwater, Alabama)
What does a woman do when her husband cheats? How far can infidelity push a person? What can a wife do when she is physically and psychologically abused, and fears for her child? That's the theme of Sleeping with the...er...this movie, as Slim (Jennifer Lopez) falls for a wolf in sheep's clothing, Mitch (Billy Campbell).
Mitch appears to be the perfect husband; he's a wealthy contractor who adores his wife and his young daughter. But when Slim discovers that Mitch has been having affairs - so much so that he codes them numerically - she confronts him about it. Suddenly, Mitch becomes a cruel, abusive mad-man, telling Slim, "Look, I'm just a squirrel..." Honestly, Mitch tells her that he always "gets what he wants." So, naturally, Slim comes to the preposterous conclusion that she shouldn't report the problem to the police or a lawyer. She doesn't take pictures for evidence. She basically just kidnaps her child and runs out of state to hide out in hotels and a friend's house. Smooth move, Mitch'll never find you now. (roll eyes)
Overall I thought the actors did a decent job. Many say that Lopez can't act, but I happen to think that she's actually quite compelling - as is the rest of the cast. I'm sure that if the movie showed a LOT more flesh, she'd be received more favorably. Nothing else is all that impressive about the movie; everything else is just a matter of going through the paces.
Notes on the ending (Spoiler Alert!): It's incredibly stupid and insulting to anyone who has ever been in a real fight - Mitch would have destroyed Slim. You don't take a few months of self defense and suddenly wipe the floor with someone who possesses every possible physical advantage. Sorry, not gonna happen. Not only that, but movies in which there is an obvious flaw in the criminal law process, glossed over simply because it advocates the weak premise within, is lazy and irresponsible (especially considering the delicate subject matter). Had situations been reversed, this movie would have been lambasted by womyn groups. What I want to know is: Where is the outrage at blatant murder? I'm not trying to minimize battered women, but Slim is clearly guilty of murder. Instead of the you-go-girl, J-Lo ego-enhancing beat-down as the finale, it would have been better to see Slim on a chain-gang in west Texas, teary-eyed and reminiscing about a now teenage daughter who has to visit her mommy through a grimy plexi-glass wall in a viewing room.
