Goofs:

Errors in geography: The subtitle says that Slim is on a boat somewhere in Northern Michigan, but she is clearly in Puget Sound; Mount Rainer is visible in the background.

Quotes:

Mitch: All right, man against woman. Is that really fair?

Refreshing for some victims/survivors of abuse!

...who have had ENOUGH of turning the other cheek! I'm sure there are many abuse survivors out there who could identify with what she went through and wished they'd had the strength to follow in her footsteps. Kudos to someone's imagination of "what if I could fight back?"!
