Being a huge fan of the book I could not have been more pleased with the film adaptation of it. I thought that Gary Ross truly got the core meaning of the book and all actors involved were cast perfectly. There's no others that could have played the parts better. I thought the cinematography was fantastic especially in the beginning. It helped paint an image of the Seam and District 12. The Capitol was even better than I imagined. I don't want to spoil anything but I for the scenes they did add, I thought they kept with the theme of the book very well and were a necessary addition. Great job to all involved, you truly did a stunning job bringing this book to life. How could have not been great, Suzanne Collins herself was a collaborator!
