The Hunger Games


.
So i just went to cinema for this movie, 'The Hunger Games' which is probably the hottest movie in every cinema now. It was okay, but to be fair, due to the limited story line, Gary did try his best to present the originality with his incredible cinematography skill in this movie. RM10 for a 2 and half hours movie, so worth it, maybe not the best, but it was nice.
.
I didn't read the book, and i'm glad i didn't, because if i did, i would be way more disappointed than now. Honestly, i don't really like the story line, okay, maybe the materials they used were special, but the whole story line was based on love, sometimes, it gets boring, that's why i don't really movies like 'Twilight' or 'John Carter'. I think that's a small little tiny disappointment FOR ME. When i thought they are gonna eat those poisoned berries, and attempt to die together, i was like 'okay, it's kinda interesting' but somehow i know that's not gonna happen, because that is not what teenagers nowadays want to see. Sadly, yeah, they didn't. The ending was predictable, nothing surprising. Sorry if I've being extremely picky, maybe it's just not my type of movie i like.
.
Too much to show, too little time to have. Too much focus on Katniss, there was no characteristic about other characters, even Peeta. And i don't think Peeta was described as a coward in the original novel, but in this movie, he is kinda coward. The only scene that showed his ability was the scene he throw the steel ball (i don't even know what it is made of, and how heavy it is), that was a cursory description. But since they really focus on Katniss, the journey that she had been through has been explained well and clearly.
.
Other than that, costume was fantastic; sounds effect, okay; cinematography, fantastic; CG effect, could be better; cast, great; overall, good but not great, 6.5/10 i would give. I'll give it a shot to the book i think, because book always better than movie, that's what i believe. Many people compare this to Twilight, but i have to say, definitely 31354657486321234 times better than twilight. At least i didn't fall asleep during watching The Hunger Games.
.
Owh, i really like Rue in The Hunger Games. She was adorable. Her real name is Amandla Stenberg, if you've watched the movie called 'Colombiana', then you will definitely remember her remarkable acting in that movie too. This is her photo.

She's adorable, don't you think?
