basically what good2go covered..
does your brake pedal slowly start to sink to the floor if your holding on the brakes? like sitting at a stoplight or something..
i'd definetly start by looking at your brake master cylinder, check the level and condition of your brake fluid..

is your pedal going to the floor or is it still up and hard to press down?
-if its dumping to the floor then id see a problem with the master cylinder.
-if its a tough pedal, like youre on the leg press tryin to push it down, then its most likely the brake booster, or the vacuum line to the booster.
