Had potential, but...

Rating: 4/10 (12 April 2012)

NOT spoilers: The script had some potential for a good movie. The director did a good job on the movie overall, except for the fight scenes. The fight scenes were terrible, CAMERA SHAKE, CAMERA SHAKE and some more CAMERA SHAKE. It's like they wanted to make the movie appropriate for children, by not showing any fights. But this movie SHOULD have been cruel to watch because it is "THE HUNGER GAMES", not some romance between a gay Vampire and a catatonic teenager. Other than that, I got bored in the first 20 minutes of the movie waiting for something to happen. After the games started there was almost no action. We were watching the protagonist climb trees and sleeping.
SPOILER: Also, a very unrealistic scene was the where the boys and girls from the 1st ans 2nd District were chasing the girl to kill her, she climbed a tree and they just sat there doing nothing and then slept for the night. Do you seriously think that 4 people who are willing to kill you or they will be killed would just sit there and not get you out down from a 5 meter tree since they had arrows, swords or even rocks from the ground! That scene ruined the feeling of the whole movie.
SPOILER: The only scene I enjoyed was after the girl buried Rue and she waved at the camera, District 11, which was where the dead girl came from, started beating up cops.
