Maybe it's exactly how it's supposed to be? It shouldn't feel like other vehicles. I've yet to drive a car that has a brake that feels like mine. Mine is usually harder to push in but you push it to the floor and the damn thing will NOT move.

If you want a stiff brake pedal... Go get some braided lines.

What year is your car btw? You may have drums on the rear which makes an INCREDIBLE difference in stopping power and they tend to leak out the seals.
