I recently read all three of “The Hunger Games” books.  I enjoyed them quite a bit.  They’re good page turners and really entertaining.  So, it shouldn’t come as a shock that I also enjoyed the film quite a bit.  There were plenty of minor changes, and a welcomed look at the reality TV aspect of games.
You definitely do not need to be a fan of the books or a teenaged girl to enjoy this film.  It is actually a good movie.  It’s very well made and features a superb performance from Jennifer Lawrence.  It is a little long, but it doesn’t feel too long, except for the uncomfortable theater seats and the numbing of my butt.


8/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
