Title: The Hunger Games
Post by: Mikekoz13 on April 08, 2012, 08:14:26 AM
Guys-

Excellent movie!! I had no idea what it was about but my kids wanted to see it. The wife and I took them on Friday afternoon.... AWESOME!!

It was a little slow getting going but boy was it good once it did. My kids and wife also loved it. The fastest 2 hour and 20 minute movie ever.

I started off reading the whole series. I'm always a little wary of the movie when they come out because I found the books to be a really quick and entertaining read and the movie usually gets editorialized to make it more digestible for a wide audience and not overly offensive to anyone. But, in this case, the movie really paid homage to the book, I found no apparent disparities and what was memorable in the book was also memorable in the movie.
We'll probably definitely buy the dvd when it becomes available. This was a movie that I could easily watch many times.

I understand the cast has been signed to do the whole trilogy.
