The Hunger Games review

The movie was released in 2012. The film is directed by Gary Ross. It’s a science fiction movie. The principal actors are Jennifer Lawrence (Katniss Everdeen), Josh Hutcherson (Peeta Mellark), Liam Hemsworth (Gale Hawthorne), Woody Harrelson (Haymitch Abernathy), Elisabeth Banks (Effie Trinket), Lenny Kravitz (Cinna) and Donald Sutherland (President Snow). That movie is based on The Hunger Games novel written by Suzanne Collins.

Katniss Everdeen is a girl who lives in district 12 with her family in Panem. Panem is a country governed by the president that lives in the Capitol. Panem is divided in 12 districts and the capitol. In the capitol everybody have a good life, but not in every district. The movie starts in district 12. There Katniss goes hunting with her friend Gale. When they finish hunting, they go to the “market” to change their hunt for other things, and there Katniss takes her mockingjay pin. When she returns to her house, she and her sister prepare for the harvest. The harvest is when the capitol takes a boy and a girl from 12 to 18 to participate in the games. Katniss and Peeta are the elected to participate in the games. Later they go with their mentor (Haymitch) and Effie to the capitol. In the capitol they train for the games. One time in the terrene of game they fight for survive. After, Katniss makes an alliance with Rue (the girl from district 11) and when Rue dies the judges decide that if the boy and the girl from the same district are alive they can win. When she listens it, she tries to find Peeta. Then they go into a cave and stay there. After they go to find something to eat and Peeta founds berries, but these berries are toxic and they don’t eat those. In the final day of the games a mutant wolf appears and chases them to the cornucopia, and there they find Cato. Katniss throws an arrow to him and he falls to the wolves. When the wolves go away, they go back to the cornucopia and the judges say that only one can survive and they want to fight. In this moment, Katniss takes the berries to kill them, the judges say that they are the winners of the games. The movie ends when they return to their district

In my opinion that is a good film. My favourite scenes are when Rue dies and Katniss sings a song for Rue and then she collects flowers and puts that around the girl and in her hands and when Katniss and Peeta are in the cave and the judges say that in the cornucopia there are things that they need and Katniss goes there to take a medicine that Peeta needs. I recommend the film to people who like science fiction films.
