Young Actors with Lots of Potential and Really Great Acting, Writing!

Rating: 8/10 (8 January 2013)

Will confess never read any of the books but have not read a non-fiction book since 1992 but that's another story.
Still it shows the struggle for survival and the humanity in the district future. Of the toughest ways to survive. Along with family hanging together through the thick and thin.
Nation of wealthy Panem Capitol and twelve poorest nations. As punishment for past rebellion, each district must choose both a boy and a girl that range between the ages of 12-18.
Game is a gladiator like fight to the death and bringing the best skills ever. 16-Year old Katniss Everdeen(Played by bigger star of the future, Jennifer Lawrence) volunteers to take her 12-year old younger sister Primrose's place. And Peeta Mellark(Josh Hutcherson, another up and comer), a baker's son for the boys.
As they leave behind their families. To go and win them wealth and to survive most of all. As there could only be one winner as all must fall to their deaths in order to do so.
They go up against much more tougher and experienced challengers.That will be even more of a challenge. But both have heart and soul. That can never be won when you have that! Coupled with Katniss bow and arrow and Peeta's throwing ability.
Despite a rough start, both Katniss and Peeta must learn to depend on one another. With the help of a drunk but understanding victor and mentor HeyMitch(Woody Harrison way, way, past "Cheers" days!).
Despite the odds, and rough start, the film is all about not giving up and despite tough challenges ahead, it is about leaning on one another.
Supporting players like Stanley Tucci is a flamboyant TV host and Elizabeth Mitchell as Eiffe Trinket who also helps supervise the twelve districts of the players in the games. Give the young actors their support that they need.
Sad but still shows you should never give up at all. Despite the conditions you may be in. Like the movie is set towards the Twelve Districts.
Lawrence carries the film. And really did a lot in her appearance to play the struggling and hardened Katniss. Hutcherson shows great sympathy and support as Peeta. Liam Hemsworth who plays Lawrence's friend Gale, plays the guy caught between the middle of the "lovers." He will have a bigger role in the upcoming two films despite not showing much of him.
