an above average SF flick

The Hunger Games is a nice movie to watch, especially if you're into science fiction.
The future world we see is in the movie is bleak. The concept of Hunger Games is particularly disturbing. The games themselves are presented as almost a logical leap forward for today's reality shows. You'll also see some nice CGI and some well done action sequences.
I haven't read to book The Hunger Games are based on, but this hasn't bothered me. However, after watching it and realizing that i'll have to endure several more movies before the ending did bother me. Besides, i haven't seen any higher message the media have been droning about.
