The Hunger Games Movie
Mar. 22nd, 2012 06:24 pmJust came back from watching it this afternoon.
As always: Read the book, because it's better! (Surprise, surprise)
I was really looking forward to the movie after having seen the trailer.
Now the trailer shows mostly scenes from early on in the story, and that is one of the reasons why I am a bit disappointed with the movie.
Because as soon as the story leaves District 12, the movie became a bit too showy-flashy-poppy MTV-Generation for me - and not only for the Capitol (where it could have worked too show the difference between there and the districts) but also in the Arena.
Another thing that didn't work for me was how the actual part in the Arena was handled.
