Enough is one of my favorite movies of all-time, and I’m sticking beside it.

Since its debut in 2002, I have probably seen this J-Lo thriller at least 25 times…maybe more. It’s truly one of those movies I have never gotten tired of, and I thought everybody was in agreement—until I saw the 22 percent Rotten Tomatoes rating. WTF?! This has to be a mistake, right? No, Enough truly wasn’t liked by viewers and critics…especially when it premiered.

And if you don’t believe me, here’s a lovely 2002 review from Roger Ebert that shows exactly what I’m talking about: “Enough is a nasty item masquerading as a feminist revenge picture. It’s a step or two above I Spit On Your Grave, but uses the same structure, in which a man victimizes a woman for the first half of the film, and then the woman turns the tables in an extended sequence of graphic violence. It’s surprising to see a director like Michael Apted and an actress like Jennifer Lopez associated with such tacky material.”

Dennis Prager, the conservative talk radio host who has been off the air since suffering a debilitating fall in November, will return in June.

Prager, whose nationally syndicated show aired locally from noon to 3 p.m. on AM 870 the Answer before his injury, will come back to host the third hour of that time slot starting June 3, Salem Media announced last week.

“I’m really feeling much better, as you can hear,” the author of “The Rational Bible” said in a voice recording played during a March 7 health-update video featuring son David Prager and Prager University Chief Executive Marissa Streit. “My voice is practically normal, which is really exciting, because I intend to go back on radio. … And my beloved son — one of my beloved sons — my beloved son David is here with me and I can’t tell you how much he has done for me. … OK everybody, looking forward to being with you often.”

At the time that recording was played, Dennis Prager was 15 weeks post-injury. Before his fall, he’d had spinal fusion surgery that resulted in a “pretty stiff situation” with his back, Streit said in a Feb. 14 video update. He hit his head when he fell but suffered no brain injury, she said.

The spinal cord was another story. “It was not severed, but it was injured, and was injured at the top of his spinal cord, at the area of C3 and C4 that also controls his diaphragm,” Streit said, noting that Prager could not move below his shoulders at the time.

“He is talking a lot to people in the rehab facility that he’s at right now,” David Prager, chief development officer for Prager U, said in the same February video. Nonprofit Prager U bills itself as a creator of “free educational content promoting American values.” “He’s all there. He’s 100% there. When you hear him on the radio, you’ll say he hasn’t skipped a beat.”

Dennis Prager is still undergoing “extensive” rehab, Salem Media said in its release.

“Dennis may have some physical limitations at the moment, but his wit, wisdom, insights and passion are as strong and as clear as ever and we are delighted at his spirit and resolve to return to his audience,” Phil Boyce, Salem’s senior vice president of spoken word, said in the release. “We want Dennis to remain a part of the Salem family and want his millions of loyal fans to continue to hear his voice.”

When Prager returns to radio, it won’t be on the exact same show that he left. Salem Media announced last week that “The Charlie Kirk Show,” hosted by the founder of the conservative Turning Point USA student movement, will take over Prager’s affiliate stations — including 870 AM — beginning next Monday.

“Affiliates of Charlie will continue to get the Kirk show with no interruption, and affiliates of Dennis will soon get Charlie Kirk as a strong and able replacement,” Boyce said in the release. The two men had been broadcasting live at the same time of day before Prager fell.

Disney’s “Snow White” is the latest live-action remake of one of the studio’s animated classics. In this case, it’s perhaps the biggest “classic” of all, as 1937’s “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” was the first full-length animated feature in American history, and in 2008 was named the greatest animated film of all time by the American Film Institute. The film’s historical significance is undeniable, but frankly I don’t think it holds up as entertainment. Advancements in both animation and sound recording technology have left that movie in the dust, not to mention that Disney writes their princesses with more complexity these days. So maybe a remake that smooths out some of the rougher edges of the past isn’t a terrible idea. But this movie goes in some directions that are definitely a terrible idea.

The story of course hits all the familiar beats. Princess Snow White (Rachel Zegler) is the stepdaughter of the Evil Queen (Gal Gadot), who seized control of her kingdom with underhanded tactics. The queen seeks constant validation of her beauty from a Magic Mirror (Patrick Page), until one day when the mirror declares Snow White to be “fairer” than she. The queen freaks out and orders her Huntsman (Ansu Kabia) to take Snow White into the woods and eliminate her. The Huntsman instead affords Snow White the opportunity to escape, and she flees deep into the woods, where she stumbles upon the home of (and I’ll use the Disney spelling) The Seven Dwarfs. She becomes an ally to miners Sneezy, Sleepy, Happy, Grumpy, Dopey, Doc, and Bashful, and she helps them straighten up their cottage as she tries to figure out what to do next. Perhaps the answer lies with the band of loveable bandits led by the charismatic Jonathan (Andrew Burnap) on the outskirts of the woods.

Unlike other Disney remakes (looking at you, “Lion King”), there are some strong deviations here from the original film. Zegler’s Snow White cares deeply about the kingdom’s subjects, and we see her pay attention to their stories and needs whenever possible. She takes a more active role in overthrowing the queen, and the third act will be unrecognizable to anyone with the original ending stuck in their heads. There are even new songs, with Zegler’s “Waiting on a Wish” fitting seamlessly into the Disney songbook along other female empowerment anthems like “Let It Go.” The queen herself gets a song, and Gadot wickedly chews the scenery with “All Is Fair.”

The film pulls my opinion in two opposite directions. On one hand, there’s Zegler’s performance as Snow White, bringing much-needed life and passion to a character that had previously been dismissed as one of the more useless waifs in the Disney catalogue. I’ll also throw a compliment toward Burnap, playing a better-developed love interest than the unbranded, uninspired prince from 1937. I have to recommend the film based on these elements, right? But then there are the dwarfs. These hideous CGI monstrosities from the depths of the uncanny valley are offensive, not just in the sense that actual dwarf actors could have been cast in these parts (six of the seven voice actors are not dwarves), but offensive to anyone with working eyes. I can’t recommend the film based on these elements, right?

I’m going to give “Snow White” the mildest of recommendations just because my expectations were so low going in. There’s been no end of bad publicity surrounding the races, heights, and political stances of the film’s cast, and these live-action remakes have a sour reputation for being lazy retreads of beloved animated properties. I was ready to declare this movie the worst of 2025. Instead I got a valiant, vibrant adaptation that I would sooner watch again for entertainment than the 1937 version. It isn’t perfect, and I completely understand why someone would consider the dwarfs to be deal-breakers for the entire film. But thanks mostly to Zegler, I saw enough Disney magic in the film to give it a pass.

Grade: B-

“Snow White” is rated PG for violence, some peril, thematic elements and brief rude humor. Its running time is 109 minutes.
