If you haven't read the books, you'll love it, if you have read the books and are in any shape of form like me, then you'll probs have comments like this:



Do NOT like who plays Katniss (Too chubby, not thin enough, hate her eyebrows, too old, doesn't look unhealthy or poor, not pretty enough) I wanted/expected a teen version of Evangeline Lilly playing Katniss.

Mockingjay shown at wrong moment, changed.
Prim in annoying.
Mother doesn't look as old as I thought.
District 12 doesn't look as run down as I thought.
Don't like who's playing Gale. Another one too old for his character age.

Hoover craft as I imagined it. Well I imagined them to be rectangular.

OMG what a weakling Prim is! SO ANNOYING!

Effie close to what I imagined but hair not pink enough, sounds like I thought though xD An American Umbridge xDD

ANNOYING camera work throughout.
I did get emotional during the volunteering moment.
The sign moment was shit though.

JOSH HUTCHERSON!!! *dies*

The 1 hour that turned out to be 3 miutes final goodbye scene was crap.

JOSH HUTCHERSON SPEAKS! *dies*

I cannot believe who is playing Haymitch! *dies laughing* But he's not who I imagined either -__-

I don't like Katniss' voice.

OMG JOSH'S SMILE!! *dies*

Ceaser is damn close to what I imagines ^^ Cinna is not what I imagined but he seems cool. I imagined some lanky camp gay guy but this Cinna I like.
President Snow is a good match too.
Wait did I just see Alex from Race to Witch Mountain?! *looks* I expected a butcher german blonde big guy playing Cato.
Katniss looked awful in the flashback scene. Like I wanted to punch her in the face awful.
Rue is very close to what I imagined, pretty much just imagined she had longer hair than the actress that plays her.
Training room's not what I imagined. It's a lot more hightech in the film.
So Alex is playing Cato (pronounced the way I didn't hear it in my head -__-) and looks NOTHING like I imagined, minus the blonde hair.
Thresh is very close to what I imagined.

The beginning of the games was interesting but sucked.
This is where Battle Royale wins as it'll show the blood and show the killing and let the killing sounds and screams be heard.
We don't get to see her dehydrate?! DAMN!
Showing the 'betrayal of finding Katniss' scene was pretty unemotional and unshocking.

The beginning of the forest fire wasn't tense enough. I didn't expect the tributes to take killing like a game.
I didn't expect the Careers to be so cheery about killing Katniss. I imagined it to be very dark and murderlike.
The scene where Haymitch talks to the sponsors was VERY touching.
What was with the while excessive breathing: That ticked me off.
Bomb explosion wasn't so great.
Rue's death isn't what I imagined and wasn't as sad as what my friend said it was.
I didn't think she could look any uglier but her crying has somehow made her beyond ugly now.
The flower scene with Rue wasn't good.
Why block out Katniss screaming? All these things are just ruining the emotions and tenseness.

But again the three finger sign hit an emotion in me.
Although why they showed the disctricts fighting I have no idea (obvs set up for the second book/film but wasn't needed).
O forgot to say, when the gamemakers discussed getting Katniss back to the other tributes was good.
Showing behind the scenes ness in a way that wasn't in the book.
The finding Peeta scene was too much of a 'she sees blood and somehow knows it's his, what a coincidence!
Stupid Hollywood.

PHEW she only kissed the cheek! xD
Awww Poor Gale. Fuck you.
WTF is that infront of Cornacopia suppose to be?!
GOD the LACK of chemistry and tension between Katniss and Peeta.
The only acting I can seriously feel in this film is Josh's!
The fight scene at the feast was great! xD

Was it just me or did most of the sounds Katniss and Peeta make sounded like sex noises?!

The wolves killed Thresh? Fuck off!  
Thresh should've had a WAY bigger part!
'Fuck a duck' are the words I said when the wolves/dogs came out at Peeta.
I like that Cato get a emotional moment at the end.

Interesting change on the ending.

Just seemed like Hollywood was doing a mediocre job because they know they'll be rolling in the money anyways.
I KNOW Josh Hutcherson can act better than that and he was the best actor there imo!
