If you like the 'Fast and the Furious' franchise of films, then you'd probably see 'Redline' in your Netflix queue and think, "this looks good. I should watch this." You would be completely wrong. Other than seeming like it's trying to be Fast and the Furious, this movie is nothing like any of those films. That's to say that it looks cheap, feels cheap, and is acted even more poorly than Tokyo Drift.
A fun fact about this movie is that the title was the working title for the first 'Fast and the Furious' movie. Not only did they rip off the style, they literally ripped off the rejected name from the movie. The thing is, you can't beat the Vin Diesel factor. If your movie doesn't have the Vin Diesel factor, it simply can't succeed.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
