My thoughts on The Hunger Games Movie.
When I watch a movie that was adapted from a novel, I'm usually bored. I
already know the story, the plot, and the ending. Unless it was one of my
favorite books, I usually do not enjoy the movie. Even then sometimes the movie
is just not very entertaining. With the Hunger Games, I had read the novel
first but I was nowhere close to falling asleep during the film. The
action, excitement, and characters made the Hunger Games not only a great
novel but a truly great film as well.
The acting, in
my opinion, is what makes The Hunger Games so great. Each actor was
perfect for their parts from Effie who was just as quirky as I had pictured her
in the novel, to Katniss and Peeta. Who really seemed to understand their
characters and got the emotions from the book to the big screen perfectly. They
were just perfect.
Personally, I do
not like gory movies. I usually find myself hiding behind
my popcorn if there is anything more than a paper cut. However, I was
expecting this movie to be much gorier then it was. There were only a few times
that I actually had to look away. The Tracker Jacker scene in my opinion was
the worst, but that's probably because bees scare me. If you have yet
to see the movie, don't worry about the gore. There is blood, stabbing and
death but nothing to graphic and gushing blood.
The Hunger Games
is a movie and book that you don't want to miss. Let's hope they keep it up
with the sequels! I'm very excited to see Catching Fire.
What did you think of the movie?

I agree completely with you Danielle. I thought the actors were perfect for their parts and it wasn't disgusting (although that sort of thing doesn't bother me.)I know what many of you are asking,though. Yes they did change some parts of the movie BUT it was all in the best interest of the movie and doesn't change a thing in the series of the books. I WOULD say you should read the books, not because it's confusing, but because it makes it more fun and you can have a really good picture of how things will turn out. This is a MUST SEE!!!
