I haven't been to the movies since my birthday in January - a major dry spell....So I took JHKey to see the Hunger Games yesterday. I was expecting to be dazzled, it was good, but not excellent. I plan on reading the books, maybe then my opinion will change.
The acting for the young cast was great. The concept was cool (like Mkey says - teenagers killing teenagers what could be bad - just kidding) but it was just ok.
If the movie can get kids to read (like Harry Potter did) then by all means take them. I think it's a little weak for adults.
acting 8.5 keys out of 10
overall 7 keys out of 10
PS caught up on dvd on The Descendants which also disappointed me. I mean I can never get enough of Clooney Man but I thought it would be more of a tear jerker than it was. Shaylene was great.
