The Hunger Games - Movie Review


"The World Will be Watching" is a very appropriate slogan for a movie that goes in to its release date with a huge built in fan base that has devoured a story originally presented over three best selling novels.

With high expectations firmly in place, the movie's success will depend on big box office numbers and that means recreating a story that will please both fans of the books and also those, like myself, that know virtually nothing about the story going in.

The return to the big screen of one of the most cherished animated characters of all time was a welcome addition to the year's crop of family friendly movies.
