REVIEW:
There were so many good actors in this movie I thought for sure it was foolproof and would be awesome. I really anticipated a great action movie.
It was just okay for me.
I think most of the movie was a little slow-paced, and it didn't really pick up until the end. Sadly, not soon enough though.
The idea of it being loosely based on the old adage, an eye for an eye, wasn't for me either. It's been done too many times to count, so in order for it to stand out it needs to be impeccably done.
The ending as I said was different and what I liked most about the film. Don't think it was because it was finally ending, though honestly, that helped too. I was over it at that point. The last of the movie was really gritty, and if you read my blog regularly, that's kinda what I'm into. I don't want fluff, I want blood and gore. What can I say?! My mom claims I should have been a boy.
Will I recommend it? Probably not. I probably won't think about it again.

 2/5

How Reading Helps Your Brain

The brain is one of the most complex biological structures that scientists and doctors have ever encountered. It is like a machine that runs non-stop that has the computing power to be able to make very complex decisions and experience unexplainable phenomena like emotions. The brain controls every other organ in the body so it is arguably the most important one. Unfortunately, probably due to its brilliance, it is a fairly vulnerable structure that can and does degrade over time.
Many experts agree that one of the best ways to maintain the health of the brain is to keep it active, just as you would with your muscles to keep them strong. There are also a number of nutrients that are very important to maintaining a healthy brain and preventing its decline.
