If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love. Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. But, after Lucy Gray commands all of Panem’s attention by defiantly singing during the reaping ceremony, Snow thinks he might be able to turn the odds in their favor. Part twisted entertainment, part government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains. With the 10th annual Hunger Games fast approaching, the young Snow is alarmed when he is assigned to mentor Lucy Gray Baird, the girl tribute from impoverished District 12.
Hopefully the next will do better.Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Overall: If you're a fan of the books, you might enjoy this, but if you're looking for a quality work that entertains you, moves you, and gives you the chills you got in the previous entries, skip this one. Torrid acting and drawn out sequences that were re-played over and over helped make the story so predictable that even those who don't know the books could figure it out While Haymitch and Effie were awesome once again, they could not salvage everything else. You know it's bad when the main character becomes a drag and isn't nearly as inspiring (nothing against J-Law). The ones here were few and far between, and Katniss's many emotional breakdowns were not any of them.
From watching the previous movies, I know these films aren't exactly 10/10 material, but they are quite entertaining and have some emotional high points. I came in expecting a good experience that I had received from its predecessors, but was left with an utter mess of a film and a disappointment to the name. I'm not going to sugarcoat it folks, this one is not worth seeing on the big screen. Reviewed by DoctorEvil1337 3 / 10 A huge letdown from a high bar set by predecessors
