A fantastic portrayal of 'Suzanne Collins' futuristic novel that centers on the sixteen year old 'Katniss Everdeen'. The movie stays on target with the book, for the mostpart. An all-star cast, with Lenny Kravitz playing the part of Cinna, which was a pleasant surprise. The suspense and action kept us on the edge of our seat! My teens and I loved it! The audience applauded at the end of the movie. Definitely the must see movie of the year! If you are a fan of the book, and miss seeing 'Hunger Games' on the big screen, you'll regret it.
