If you like being told how to feel and when to feel it you will like this

Rating: 3/10 (26 March 2012)

High expectations going in. I was very disappointed. I had not read the book so didn't have the background knowledge that the director might have been hoping for.
The unnecessary hand held camera shake just about gave me motion sickness. The lack of character development was astounding. The main character had no character flaws. Throughout the movie you were told what to feel. There was very little suspense.
It does immerse you in to a world with the haves and have-nots although, I'm not sure why it was called the Hunger Games. The hunger that I saw was before the games. Why didn't they call it perfect girl gets to win?
