of killing eachother. They wanted to eat
poisoned berries, but the Gamemaker
stopped it so Peeta and Katniss won both.

Katniss, Peeta, Gale and Prim live in district

I loved this movie when I first watched it.
Some things that happen in the book
doesn't happen in this movie, but that is in
my opinion better, because otherwise it's
exactly the same and you don't even have
to watch the movie.
It has a lot of action in it and I love that. It's
also a bit romantic, in example between
Katniss and Peeta. Romance and Action
combined are the best movies, in my
opinion.

Okay saw this on opening day with a group
of friends. And I have to say all of us were
pretty much disappointed with the majority
of the movie. It lack so much of the emotion
and thrill that caught my attention in the
book, and it just felt very rushed. I really
wanted this movie to be good, but it just
disappointed me so much. It's not a movie
that I will be throwing much money to, and I
hope that when they make the second one
that the do a 360 from this movie and
correct what they did wrong in this one.
Though I have to say they had a fantastic
cast, the acting was spot on I really felt for
the most part each of the main characters.
But the downhill plot line and downgrading
some of the characters personalities really
was detrimental to the movie.

The Hunger Games was quite succesfull
but Ross opted to not adapt or direct the
