The nation of Panem makes its districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in The Hunger Games. The Hunger Games are a televised event in which "Tributes" have to fight each other until one survivor is left standing. A young girl, Katniss, played forcefully by Jennifer Lawrence is forced to rely upon her instincts, along with being coached by a drunk - a former winner. The VOICE meets SURVIVOR? Well, no. A reality show that is completely insane like NETWORK? Okay, no. But The Hunger Games does entertain and the cast, the whole cast is fun to watch. Good performances from Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth top off the cast. The action was big, but not necessarily "epic" and it didn't move as fast as did the book. However, I did like the movie and would definitely go back and see it again - or the sequel. It is a fun movie and, at times, it is intense.
