The Hunger Games

Rating: 8/10 (18 February 2013)

Most of the reviews I read compare the movie with the book. I want these people to know that watching a movie and reading a book are two different things and this is a website for talking about movies. I found "The Hunger Games" amazing. The way Jennifer Lawrence acted was superb and I can't imagine this movie without her. Even the other primary characters were great. I think the movie is very actual for the themes it explores. First, the movie is about the difference between rich and poor people where just poor people have to suffer. Second, the unjustified violence made just for a sadistic society. Third, it explains the way our society manipulates us. The only flaw I found in this movie was the way Gary Ross directed the movie. In fact, I found the direction not awful, but a little bit monotonous in some parts and I think director Gary Ross lost the possibility to make his masterpiece.
