The Hunger Games

Although very intriguing and gripping, outstanding performances held a character-driven film in The Hunger Games above mood and surrounding atmospheric development. A vague and vivid undersanding of this fantastical Sci-Fi world creeped into the condensed focus on the main characters towards a bigger element near the end of the film. The unbalaned direction in storytelling and headaching camera-usage in action scenes made things less clear and more weakening in the story's power. Overall, The Hunger Games is a highly entertaining movie that goes from dark futuristic civilization's under seige to a Spy Kids theme and to people wearing make-up and living in a stylish city. Everything about this movie is entertaining but difficult to comprehend with so less brilliance in the soul and too much unoriginality in the heart to even consider a sequel following this dissapointment. The only thing that works which I found thoroughly engaging was the the Hunger Game itself, and the build-up to that was acted out as good as possible within such mind-boggling limits.
