Enjoyable Film Until The Final Third

Rating: 7/10 (29 September 2016)

An excellent and surprisingly thrilling film that had me totally hooked for two thirds but very slightly faded towards the end with the outcome needing more big and loud performances from the actors and to have a few less inconsistencies.
The film was truly a blue print for this genre and rivalled the first Hunger Games and bettered it in many areas. The actors played a superb part early on and the story was truly engrossing. The inconsistencies weren't truly major but had you questioning certain plot-lines and why the characters wouldn't question it themselves such as the helicopter that flies the group out at the end. Why wouldn't they have just flown directly into the camp and rescued them ?
Overall a superb one time watch that almost became a keeper but dipped too much in the final third.
