May the Odds Be Ever in Your Favor

The other day I watched The Hunger Games with of my two close friends, not knowing the story very well as I haven't read the books yet! I really wanted to watch due to Mr Hutcherson who has been my favourite actor since I saw the bridge to terabithia (yes he made me cry when she died) and I have been meaning to watch little manhattan, (added to my long list of things to do).

☆☆☆☆(4stars)

Okay so my opinon of the movie from someone who cannot compare to the book, I must say I really enjoyed it, there was so much hype about it and surely did live up to it expectations and it's made me want to read the book! Before I go on I may spoil some of the scenes that I loved and also this is my opinon, yours may differ and I would love to hear what you thought of the movie too!

I feel the movie is going to be the new Harry Potter/Twilight 'books into movies' thing after both movies have or are going to end, this movie will take over. Before I start, the movie is about a 16 year old girl called Katniss (I must say I do love all there 'unique' names) who is living in the future. Katniss volenters in protection of her sister to compete with 23 other young girls and boys in a battle; One boy and one girl between the ages of 12-18 are chosen from 12 disricts which surround the capital, to win they must kill one another till there is only one surivor.

Katniss played by Jennifer Lawrence, I give full credit to her. She really had portrayed her character as a  very strong girl and made everyone (definately me) feel what she was feeling, hats off to her! For all you Liam Hemsworth fans, sorry but he's not in the movie for very long which shocked me and my friends with all the posters and hype, but I must say for the 5-10mins we saw him, they really portrayed the connection between Katniss and Gale and you actually had to 'awww' when see Gale's face as he watches Katniss and Peeta, you had to feel sorry for him! Peeta played by Josh Hutcherson he did an amazing job showing his love for Katniss, I just sighed through all his parts I must admit.. For all the characters you either feel sorry what they are going through (which I deeply felt for Katniss, Peeta and Rue) or you just want them to suffer, I may sound mean but i'm sure you'll understand  if you know the story.

If you're a bit sqeemish there are parts (which you will cringe a bit) where they show really deep cuts; you will really feel the pain that their feeling! Also the thought of watching children die might scare some people, it's not bad to watch but it really gets your heart going at some points.

SPOILER: small spoiler which people may already know, which I didn't but kind of guessed it already. At the end when cato (from district2) has peeta, you don't know really what going to happen but you know Katniss is going to live, so at this point you're at the edge of your seat (well I definatelly was!) Everyone probably wanted Peeta to live! (which he does!) I really liked the ending when they are willing to both die for eachother (Romeo and Juliet moment) but then they obviously make both of them the winners, and you are left with Coriolanus Snow walking away up the stairs... *BAM MOVIE ENDS*

The ending kinda bore me but it wanted me to watch a 2nd movie *fingers crossed* for Catching Fire :D

I have to share this photo I found on tumblr, if you know the story you'll get it:

Me and my friends laughed at the bread clips through out the flim cause we just didn't get it at all

(then eventually we got it :P)

So that is the end of my blabbing of how I loved the movie, and keeping to the theme
