I bought this dvd because I read the book which was great and was wondering how the movie compared to the book. The movie was really quite good and followed the story in the book pretty well. I would recommend it to anyone who has read the book as it is easier to pick up the plot if you have read the story because the developed the characters a lot more in the book. All in all it was a good movie and I only hope we don't end up in this senario.
I purchased the movie for our granddaughter for Christmas. She saw Hunger Games at the theater, fell in love with the characters, and wanted a copy of her own. We watched it with her. It was a little "young" for my taste. I can see why this movie appeals to teens and young adults. It is filled with youth, a lot of action and of course, LOVE. The story line was good, although some of the scenes were a bit unbelievable. Overall . . . if it made Claire happy - we are happy with our purchase.
I purchased this DVD because I had just finished reading the first book in "The Hunger Games" trilogy. The story was just amazing and I was driven by my desire to see if a movie version could do it any justice. I was not disappointed. The actors portrayals were spot on. The performances were completely believable and played with such honesty that it was very easy to forget that I was watching a movie and not a reality show. There were some differences between the book and the movie, as is usual with book to film adaptations, but they only served to strengthen the plot and move the story along seamlessly. I was delighted that Hollywood had actually allowed Suzanne Collins, the author, to have a heavy hand in the writing of the screenplay. This proved to be a plus because we are allowed a glimpse into realms of the world of Katniss and Peeta that we just were not afforded in the book. The bonus disc in this set was fantastic. It allows you an in depth view of Panem, it's citizens and the corrupt Captital that rules it all. Fans of this book will not be disappointed. Although the book deals with very violent deaths, the movie does not glorify or revel in it. The actual killings are shot in such a manner to show how wrong the games are. This keeps the moral of the original plot intact. Big government sending kids off to war is wrong. What makes it even worse is how it is always the poverty stricken sons and daughters that get the worse end of the deal. "The Hunger Games" may be fictional but the presentation echos only a slight alteration of nonfiction. This is cinematic perfection. I am 42 and my son is 12 and we both throughly enjoyed the book and the movie. I recommend this movie for all ages, young and old.Vollständige Rezension lesen
