The Hunger Games

Its twlight meets battle royale

A bit dissapointing this movie to be honest. its feels like a twlight movie but with a darker concept of young people having to kill eachother in order to win the game.
This film has a similar story to the japanese movie battle royal but that movie is much more real and grapthic and disturbing and leaves this one feeling like a typical waterd down mainstream release.
you dont see much of the killing The start of the killing is ruined by music backing and camera work that is designed for you to not be absorbed into what is actually happening, the lead actress seems to act like nothing matters like she's out for a day at the zoo , ithe romance side of the movie just adds more softness to what already feels very watered down i.e twlight.
its twlight meets battle royale. ok at best.
