Great Movie

Rating: 9/10 (11 April 2012)

I will admit that I was apprehensive about seeing the film after truly loving the books.Movies based on popular novels tend to ruin the franchise for me.However, I think that the Hunger Games film truly does the book justice. You can't get every exact detail into the film, otherwise the movie would be 4 hours long but I felt that the film was very much in the spirit of the book.The cinematography was beautiful and evocative. The casting choices were wonderful. I was very thoroughly impressed with this film.It was thrilling and appropriately poignant. For once, I am actually looking forward to the sequel.I highly recommend this movie (if you can bring yourself to consider the spirit of the film rather than being a stickler for details).
