Re: The Hunger Games


I'd say roughly 4/5 stars (I don't do halves). Marks down for:

- Jerky camera far too much.
- A little too much time spent on set up in the beginning
- Not enough about other folks in the arena
- Katniss apparently washed obsessively because she never appeared dirty. Odd for someone from a COAL MINING TOWN.
- Woody Harrelson didn't quite get the character.

In general, they did a good job going from the book to the movie but I think the better choice (and riskier) would have been to take the three books and make two movies. I would recommend it, but expect to feel uncomfortable at times.
