I thought it was pretty good, when the trailer came out like 5 months ago I was like eh, book? what's a book? I'm not gonna read that shit. and I didn't, just so my hopes and expectations weren't crushed. But I still thought it was pretty good, obviously I can only rate it based on the movie and not compare it to the book. The corrupt government was pretty annoying to have to watch. I think if you're going to blame the story, you'd have to blame the book, though I suppose the movie could do a bad job at depicting some parts. Probably in the book it mentions that Peta was never trying to get her killed, obviously in a game of survival, you gotta do what it takes to survive, even hide the truth that you're just in the alliance so you don't die early.
I was pretty sad when Rue died, and this movie just made a shit load of money. I probably won't bother go reading the 2nd and 3rd book, but I am curious as to see what the future plots would be about. My guess is taking down the corrupt as shit government. And good god that lady with extreme make up, the representative of district 12, was so god damn fricken ugly. Truthfully, it really made me feel more hate for the rich. This situation is to an extreme, but the class levels were certainly so fcked up.
