Hunger Games

Movie Review   by:shakira19    
ª
 
The movie depicts a future story which takes place in Panem, North America which was divided into 13 districts.
Only one of the thirteen districts is wealthy,and the others are extremely poor, therefore the twelve poor districts decide to rebel against the wealthy one named Capitol.This rebellion results in causing much anger among the Capitol people on the districts that dared to rebel against them instead of improving the poor people's condition. In consequence to the trial of rebellion The Capitol district decides to punish the ones who went against them by using the population of these districts for entertainment purposes.They invent a cruel reality show,which is much as the reality games we know today from the aspect that the viewers are able to follow each step the participants make,,but while in the reality shows of nowdays the participants choose to take part in these games the participants in the future game,The Hunger Game,have no control over their destiny.The Capitol district is the one that chooses the participants for their reality show,,it does it in a raffle.From each of the twelve districts a man and a woman must be chosen.The chosen ones move to Capitol in order to be trained for The Hunger Games.The purpose of the game is to stay alive.The winner is the participant that succeeds to survive in a kind of a jungle full of dangers such as deadly insect,hunger and the most frightening one-the constant will of other competitors to kill their rivals.
Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) from district 12 volunteers to take part in this brutal game after she hears that her younger sister was chosen in the raffle.
The film presents an awful reality in which the humanity confronts with brutality and the natural aspiration to survive.
The character of Kartniss is courageous,sophisticated and sensitive but yet realistic even though she's only 16 years old.It is fascinating to see how she deals with the situations she's forced to deal with.The contribution of the people surrounding her to her extraordinary personality is undoubted but I don't want to to tell you the whole movie. I'd rather you to watch it and see for yourself why I'm so overwhelmed by this amazing film.I hop[e you'll enjoy it as much as I did.

Thank you for reading. -.-
