7.2

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. 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. 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. 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. The world will be watching.

The way the public views this as a sport is creepy and how the elites act is super chilling especially how they think it's no big deal.

I'm biased about this whole saga because it takes me to my teenage years. I love it 'cause it's a perfect parallelism about today's society.

Does a great job of making the stakes and tension escalate during the entire movie. Katniss and her allies are easy to root for.

It gets a lot of unjustified hate. It's actually exceptionally well made and captivating. Lawrence is incredible.
