I have read the books and I knew the movie would not be close but I wanted to see what they could do with it. The movie did a poor job of building the plot, jumping from scene to scene without a foundation. The scenes were choppy and the plot lacked support and movement.
I was excited to watch the scene with the Tracker Jackers, expecting them to be very large, angry and ferocious, but they were like ants. You don't see them sting her, you don't see the swelling, you don't see the pustules burst, you don't see anything! They should have just left out the scene and saved the 2 minutes they poorly devoted to it.
The detail of the books were exciting and edgy, but the film is found wanting. This could have been a good film if they wrote it for NC-17 instead of the Disney-Tone. Maybe even spread The Hunger Games over 2 or 3 films instead of trying to cram it into one.
I won't be recommending this film to anyone, instead, I'll tell them to get the book.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
