Disappointing! :(

Rating: 4/10 (8 April 2012)

I really enjoyed the book and with all those positive reviews the movie got, I truly believed that I was going for a treat. I was so wrong.
The movie really lacks emotional depth and character development. Many important moments were rushed/overlooked/didn't get proper treatment. The two main character's (Katniss & Peeta) relationship & back story were treated clumsily and carelessly. What I felt when I read the book, I didn't feel it when those scenes were translated into the movie. There were not enough punctuation and dramatization to make any emotional impact. Everything felt flat.
The action parts made me dizzy,I can't really see what's going on because the camera was too shaky. And lastly, attention to detail, it just bothered me to see how almost all of the tributes looked really clean for someone who had been living in the woods for days, even Rue's nails (on her death scene) were so clean, as clean as the Capitol's residents' coming fresh out of the shower.
I wanted to give this movie an even worse score, but out of respect for Suzanne Collins,I give it 4 out of 10.
