when i first heard about this movie, i really liked the idea of a woman standing up to the man that has abused her but once i watched it i was quite dissapointed. firstly i was really annoyed with the daughter because instead of supporting her mum she just shouted at her and she really needed to learn some respect. then i hated the way they added humor to a movie that is supposed to be about serious issues that should not even be considered funny in any way but i do understand that they wanted to add some happiness into it so it wouldnt be depressing. the main character is what made me almost give up on the movie as she was so weak and had absolutely no confidence in herself even after undergoing all the training. thankfully her attitude did improve towards the end. overall this movie was ok but not one i would watch again.
