JOURNAL
I watched a movie just now, name's The Brothers Grimsby. It's so ridiculous, and you can't pay too much attention to the details. I just want to say, this movie is a good showing of family.
The film mainly talks about how an elder brother protected his brother, It's not easy thing because his brother is a secret agent. Even though big brother was a poor people, in his words, a scum, but he has a lot of neighborhood and friends, a lot of daughter and son, a lot of love, it's enough for them to won finally.
