Not Bad

I read the book 1st. Glad I did. The movie would have tainted the reading experience. That being said, I enjoyed the movie. I'm looking forward to the next one since I've read the whole series.

So good!

The casting was amazing. The translation from page to screen was great.

FUN?

I cannot believe that one of the reviewers (loving jinny) wrote that this movie was fun. That's just about the last word that describes it! It's thought-provoking, intelligent, violent, many things... But fun it ISN'T. Jinny, if you found this fun, you need serious help.

Suspenseful

A suspenseful story of 24 young people fighting for their lives in the wilderness as part of an annual "game". Despite the heart-wrenching premise behind the story, I was left with a feeling of hope. Graphic violence.

Great

This movie is awesome! It has a lot of action and suspense in it. The book is better though.

GOOD

THE STORY IS VERY GOOD AND FUN.

great

such a deep and great movie

different

when i saw this movie at Q16, i noticed that the plot was very different from most movies i watch. usually i can predict what happens, but in the hunger games, i was hanging on the edge of my seat. after watching this film, i immediately read the book which in my opinion was slightly better. my favorite part was, of course, the actual games. some parts were quite sad however.

Great!

This was such a good film! The acting is phenomenal. But the book is better.

great

heart thumping
