THE PURGE (2013)
The Purges main plot is based around the idea that to stop crime rate from escalating out of control, America would shut its emergency services down for 12 hrs during one night a year, to allow for the people to be able to get out their frustrations without the fear of consequence. During that night the law will close its eyes to whatever happens and whatever is illegal is considered legal for that night. The purge reminds us that without our emergency services at hand, we would be afraid to leave our homes. It does a good job in putting the viewer in the centre of what seems dangerous by creating an immersive environment that is similar to our own but without the safety net of the law. Even though the story was easy to take, the stupid things that led to the break down of the system were hard to swallow. Bad decision after bad decision led to unreasonable reactions that seemed to happen just so the story can move forward to the next scene. This stopped the roller coaster ride and forced you to question the reactions that took place. Wondering why someone would do such stupid things when their life is threatened. The movie just didn't manage to get the two thumbs up because of the silly things that had to happen just to enhance the atmosphere, Its just Average.
TEMPTATION CONFESSION OF A MARRIAGE COUNSELOR (2013)
This was one movie that didn't have much of a happy ending, but managed to teach those who wonder if the grass is greener on the other side that they better stay on this side of the fence. Temptation got the better of Judith, a woman who got married to her childhood sweetheart who had eventually got bored with her good man and felt she deserved an extraordinary man and with a matching extraordinary life. She didn't believe that her husband could give her the exciting life she craved so started looking for it within a young single billionaire that flirted with her giving her the attention that her husband wasn't giving her. Once she fell deep in love with the forbidden fruit of this unpredictable billionaire did things start taking a turn for the worse. She learnt the hard way that her fling just lost her all that she had taken for granted, but it wasn't till she was out of the trench of trouble that she realised what she had. The movies lesson was enough to leave an impression on you, even though their are many similar movies that have had a better execution and managed to keep you interested all the way to the climax. This movie had a lot of interesting moments and a good twist at the end but not enough flow to lead you to clear path of understanding. A good watch but not a great one. It's just Average.

SUNDAY STAND UP
TIME TO TAKE A STAND FOR YOUR SUNDAY DILEMMA
If you knew a friend was only calling you to use you for a shoulder to cry on and not reciprocate the friendship would you confront them with your thoughts ?

ONE SIDED VIEW
Placing negative judgements on females purely because of their gender will not only hold back those who are being judged , but also limit societies own potential. A society that doesn't encourage all its people to excel are only putting limitations to their resources and dumbing down society. A man dominated society will only limit its own perspective on the truths of the world. Men and women views expressed together will bring both sides to the table which will bring choices that are better balanced based on what is best for all the people.
