Movie review : The Hunger Games

Share

Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the evil Capitol of the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. A twisted punishment for a past uprising and an ongoing 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.

PROS

  • Very good acting by the young cast
  • It has a very gripping and original story

CONS

  • Some of the CGI (computer generated images) were not done so good.
  • If you have never read the books before you may be lost in the beginning of the movie.

FAVORITE QUOTES

President Snow: Hope, it is the only thing stronger than fear. A little hope is effective, alot is dangerous. This fact is fine, as long as it’s contained.

Peeta Mellark: You’re our mentor. Don’t you have any advice? Haymitch Abernathy: Yes. Embrace the probability of your imminent death.

CONCLUSION

The hunger games is a very entertaining movie. Having not read the book before, i did not know what to expect .What i got was a great original story , excellent acting , impressive visual effects and costumes, and fantastic action scenes. This movie may be seen in the same light as Harry potter and Twilight, but it does have some more mature themes. It handled themes such as politics , feminism and religion . It is a great movie that the whole family can enjoy.

  1. Yeah I thought the movie was excellent apart from some unneccessary camera shaking and some not-so-good special effects. Overall it was amazing with the cast, plot, and suspense. The full review is on my blog: http://seungsviews.blogspot.com/2012/04/movie-review-hunger-games.html

  2. I saw this movie last week and walked out halfway as it was like watching those ghastly reality TV shows i was avoiding to watch on TV at home in the first place.

  3. What really got me was the wehetar the aliens weren’t bad, but living in Texas and having had to get in the closet for tornadoes and such just made me realize how freaked out I would be at THAT wehetar. Edge of the seat definently. White knuckles too I think :0.
