Why this film was successful, my personal opinion.

Rating: 9/10 (1 June 2012)

I think the success of the book and consequently the success of the film are due to the author combined in a creative and convincing a subject so current and as present as it is the reality show, with a time of human history, more precisely the time of the Roman Empire, and I'm not saying you have to know history to enjoy the movie, but the film is convincing precisely because they are inspired by events that really happened, and knowing that human beings tend to repeat past mistakes. The film is excellent, still recommend to those who did not read the book in which it is based, do so because it complements, not only adding situations that do not appear in the film but also helps to understand how the character feels or thinks at certain times. The choice of actors is sublime, the best I remember at this time. In my opinion, the character of Katniss, Peeta, Haymitch, Caesar, Snow, Seneca Crane, Effie, Prim, Cinna, Rue, well, basically all but minor roles are well represented, although some may are not great actors. I have read some reviews that do not agree to the following, but in my opinion, the setting of the film is remarkable. If aspects are taken separately, may have weak spots, but the combination of all them transmit more than efficiently what the book expressed in words.
