Watched The Hunger Games Featuring The Lovely Jennifer Lawrence(Winters Bone) as Katniss Everdeen , Josh Hutcherson(Red Dawn) as Peeta Mellark , Liam Hemsworth(The Expendables 2) as Gale Hathworne, Elizabeth Banks( Invincible) as Effie Trinket, Woody Harrelson(Zombieland) as Haymitch Abernathy, Lenny Kravitz(Precious) as Cinna, Stanley Tucci(Captain America:The First Avenger) Caesar Fickerman, Amandla Stenberg(Columbiana) as Rue, Wes Bentley(Ghost Rider) as Seneca Crane, David Okeniyi(Eyes To See) as Thresh ,Willow Shields(Beyond The Blockboard) as Primrose Everdeen, Paula Malcomson(Battlestar Galactica) as Mrs.Everdeen ,Alexander Ludwig(Race To Witch Mountain) as Cato and Donald Sutherland(Pride & Prejudice) as President Coriolanus Snow the Series Main Villain.The character of Katniss was perfectly cast. Which is just as well because her character was in almost every scene and it was essential that they found the right girl to play her. The haunted look in her eyes, I really believed every emotion she was feeling, and felt so sorry for her. I felt sorry for all the kids. What a horrible world where this is what provides entertainment to the rich folk. Kids killing kids, all for the joy and amusement of others. When they first went into the arena I thought it was going to be a small field and it would be all over in five minutes.
All of the actors were great though. I loved How Harrelson, Banks and Tucci Provided Humor in an Intense Modern Gladiator Competition also Great costume Design By Judianna Makovsky(The Last Airbender) , Production Design By Phillip Messina(Oceans 11) , Score By James Newton Howard(The Dark Knight), Screenplay By Billy Ray(State Of Play) and Direction By Gary Ross(SeaBiscuit) An Amazing Start to Fantastic Series 9/10
