    I love this movie but it was definately not better than the book, in the book, Peeta lost his leg, in the movie, it was just a scar. I hate it when movies leave out key parts! Good thing they got a new director for Catching Fire I can't wait to see that movie!

      Although the camera was very shaky, it was very entertaining to watch. Can't wait to watch the sequel!

          I read all the books and I loved them ;). So when The Hunger Games came on DVD I convinced my parents to get it! Its awesome and I love it, though it does miss some important parts for in the later books!

              this movie is also really good and i also recommend this one! i saw this one about 2 or 3 times also. its adventures and cool. a little sad thought. i didn't read the book though and i heard the book is also really good, so if you didn't see it read the book first then see this movie i'm sure you'll love it!

                  It was really good, but it didn't match up with the movie exactly like I thought it would. It was a good movie overall.
