Movies | The Hunger Games (2012)

"The World Will Be Watching"
The Hunger Games is a science fiction adventure film directed by Gary Ross, based on the novel of the same name by Suzanne Collins
        Several years after a civil war breaks out, North America lies in a post-apocalyptic state. The nation of Panem consists of a wealthy Capitol and twelve poorer districts. As punishment for a past rebellion, each district must provide a boy and a girl ("tributes") between the ages of 12 and 18 selected by lottery (the "Reaping") for the annual Hunger Games. The tributes must fight to the death in an arena, with the sole survivor rewarded with fame and wealth. This year's arena is a vast forest.
         Katniss, lived in the 12th districtwith with her mother and sister. They lived poorly so she was coming through the border illegally into the woods with her friend Gail, where they hunted and from this had the money. Reaping begins and choosing Prim (Sister Kitnis), but Katniss becomes a participant voluntarily games to save her sister. the second tributes to become a Peeta Mellark. 
         Then begin preparation for the games, training and interviews. During the parade, everyone admired them and their costumes.

           Start the game and on the first day, almost half tributes were killed. Peeta unites with a pro but soon protecting Katniss, his slashed with a knife and left to die, but at the end of Katniss saves him. Even during the Games Rue from District 11 helps her, but a pro have killed her. Katniss plays beloved Peeta, because the rules have changed the game, and if the two tributes from the same district, the two winners, Peeta did not know it. Peeta and Katniss win the game, but she become a political enemy.
           I loved this movie because it is fully duplicated book, and it's a big plus for me. The main characters  (Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson) are perfect for this role. I do not understand why many people admire Liam Hemsworth, if it is almost secondary actor. I do not like science fiction, but this film is a masterpiece. The whole movie you in suspense of what is happening. I think this is a very interesting history and unusual. I also so love soundtrack namely "Safe and Sound" by Taylor Swift it's really beautiful song. I'm waiting for the second part of the film, I think it will also be so interesting.
