This movie i have to say is one of the best that i have seen. I went with my friends to the midnight premier and this was worth only getting 2 hours of sleep and going to school the next day! The cast who was picked to play this movie was really well also! I have to say Effie and Haymitch were the best together <3. Yes there were some parts of the movie that were cut out which i was VERY upset with but i think they made a good replacement with it. Maybe it was just me trying to live everything up to what it was in the books but after watching it i had to realized that they could not do it all in one movie. They expaned what this was all about and did it in a great way. If they never changed it would have been an 4 hours movie or it would needed to be broken down into 2 movies which would suck. Overall i was happy and im buying it when it comes on DVD and im counting down the days till Catching Fire!!!
