Description
Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains. Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love. The world will be watching.
I often watch film adaptations based on books, but very rarely when they are better or not worse than the original. But these "Hunger Games " went with a bang, that's exactly how I imagined them.
The only downside is that it wasn't particularly clear from the film that Katniss fell in love with Pete, but there was no doubt about it in the book.
Acting, thoughtful plot, fully written scripts, the incomparable Jennifer Lawrence
Thanks to the writer Susan Collins for the scripts ✨
Josh Hutcherson did a good job in his role. And Jennifer is generally great in this series of films.
An amazing series of films, I will review with pleasure
