REVIEW:

Action films may follow similar formulas to others these days, but that doesn't mean they're not still fun.  Take the new Salma Hayek movie "Everly" for example.  This film is about a woman who, after betraying a mob boss, has a bounty put on her and her family and must defend herself from assassins while also attempting to make amends meet with those she's estranged from.  The entire film takes place in an apartment complex, and it's a basic shoot-em-up/femme-fatale action packed romp, and that's all a part of the fun that this movie delivers on.  Salma Hayek is a total badass here and shows that she's having a ball, the story itself is simple yet effective, and the action is just awesome to watch.  If you're looking for a fun movie to watch with friends on a Saturday night, then definitely check out "Everly."  Not a perfect film by any means, but a whole lot of fun to watch nonetheless.

Hello viewers of this blog,

Due to recent comments of spam and profanity present from obnoxious kids who think they are the funniest people in the world, I would like to request that the comments posted here are in good taste, meaning that they have no Anti-Semitic remarks, profanity, sexual innuendo, or any insults to myself. You can criticize the review and give pointers on how to make them better, but how about we be adults about this. Ok? Thank you, and have a nice day.
