Hunger Games: The Movie

        Countless critics are praising The Hunger Games movie, everyone thinks it's absolutely amazing, it's unfortunate that I disagree. The Hunger Games book was very well written, captivating, exciting, romantic, and had a strong message. Yet what the book was practically made of, the movie lacked. We start off the movie with an array of close up shots apparently done by a drunken camera-man, the shakiness was almost unbearable. As we continue throughout the movie no sight of Haymitch, the classic drunk, was seen, he didn't fall off the stage at any point thus not truly allowing the audience to grasp the true drunkenness that he portrayed in the book. Similar disappointments followed through the movie, I don't want to get carried away by all the unfortunate mishaps, but I just mostly want to state the complete and udder lack of any symbolic messages, the movie seamed to be more about the romance and less about the true message. Therefor the movie was merely just a profitable expense in my eyes, just a way to absorb more money.
