So, I've read the book...books. I really enjoyed them and was very much looking forward to the movie.
Well, it didn't disappoint. OMG this was such a good movie. From the point of view of an adaptation, and just as a really good kick-ass movie.
Of course, you couldn't recreate the book completely the way it was originally written, but the core was there and it was done really really well. There were little things that you see in the movie that got more attention in the book, but that's understandable because there wouldn't have been enough time to explore them as fully in the movie.
And while I knew Jennifer Lawrence was a really good actress, I was pleasantly surprised by Josh Hutcherson's performance as well.
All in all, I recommend it!
