Powerful!

Rating: 10/10 (7 August 2012)

After reading these amazing books, my expectations were very high. I thought the movie stayed very true to the books and the essence of this story. The movie was, for me, a facilitator of the images I constructed in my head as I was reading the books. I HIGHLY recommend reading the books before watching the movies because most of the books are about Katniss' way of seeing things, how she felt, etc and of course, that's hard to catch in a movie so the books are helpful in many scenes where the things Katniss says are important to understand the full meaning of the scene. If I had to choose between the movie and the books, of course I'd choose the books but gladly, I don't have to choose and I can enjoy both masterpieces. Can't wait for Catching Fire!!!!!!!
