I read The Hunger Games for 11th Grade English... Usually I don't like reading books at all but I caught myself immersed in the world of "The Hunger Games". The movie starts in the city of Panem one of the 13 districts in the capitol where the games are held every year. The districts selects 1 boy and one girl to compete in the games.

Katiness volunteers to take her sister's place after her name is picked during "The Reaping". She is District 12s first volunteer tribute in the 74 years of the games... At first Katiness doesn't know whether she can win the games for her sister but she does promise she will TRY to win for her. Im now going to skip ahead a little bit to the actual games....

Katiness and her friend are thrown into the arena but before that happens Haymitch tells her that there are arrows but to not go for them yet but to stand her ground... Once the clocks sounds the tributes go after what supplies they can. Tributes end up having there throats slashed and machete's thrown in their backs Katiness stands her ground.

Tributes end up dying off very quickly I think within the first 8 hours 8-10 tributes are already dead. Katiness ends up meeting a tribute named "Rue" she gives Katiness guidance on how to take out other tributes. There is one point where Katiness is almost killed by a District 2 tribute... A tribute from District 11 hears the fight going on and picks the girl up and slams her head against a metal wall 2 times (EPIC and AWESOME) thus killing the tribute and saving Katiness' life and because Rue also died.

There is also a confrontation between Peeta and another tribute at the end of the film and the other tribute is very bloody... The other tribute threatens to kill Peeta by choking him. Katiness shoots an arrow at the tribute and gets him right in the neck and kills him and his body get eaten and torn to shreds by the wolves/dogs. Katiness and Peeta end up winning the games and District 12 has two winners.

I give this movie 8/10. I feel there could have been a little more violence to depict more of the games. AWESOME MOVIE overall.

Go See It!
