Does anyone pay attention??

Rating: 9/10 (22 November 2014)

All I see are people complaining that this movie is 'too slow' or its 'boring' or 'bleak.' Does anyone even pay attention to what it's about? This series is about OPPRESSION. It doesn't take the smartest person in the world to realize this series, books and movies, is about oppression, rebellion, and the consequence of both. It's not supposed to be upbeat. Like do you really need big noises and explosions constantly to keep your attention? It's supposed to make you think. This movie has been advertised as a cute little romance action movie from the start, but that's not even close to what it's about. The movie is a good adaption of the book, its taking the exact route it should. Jennifer Lawrence did a great job portraying the mental instability of Katniss who is so clearly suffering from PTSD. How dumb can you be not to realize what this movie is? I can't believe people walked in expecting constant explosions and constant excitement. This series is dark. Pay attention.
