Hunger Games
by Piolo Navarro
Peeta Mellark to whom Katniss family once owe for saving them that
day from extreme hunger when he gave them bread, being the son of
a baker. Right at the onset televising the game, the two realize that a
love angle interests and electrify the viewers so they have to play to
the cameras so they be favoured too by more supporters and sponsors
and get high chances of surviving, although Peeta really has feelings
for Katniss. To appeal more to public, rules of the game is even
changed that two people from a single district can now win giving hope
and drive to the two. Despite the camaraderie, dirty, awful, terrorizing
and bloody game, the two eventually are able to outwit the rest of the
contenders. But towards the end, the rule is put back to having only
one winner leaving Katniss and Peeta desperate to just end both their
lives. Left with no choice but to have a winner to keep the tradition, the
game finally decides to declare both as the winners. The Capitol takes
it an act of defiance but for their safety, Katniss try to convince
everyone that it is just out of desperation of losing Peeta and not a
rebellion.
Looking closely to how the movie is shown on screen, it can never
be denied that watching it is far way entertaining than reading the
book especially for those who barely take reading a pleasurable
experience and an easy task to do. But those who have watched are
most likely going to be interested giving its book a try. Casts give
justice to their roles and are able to convincingly bring to life
everyones character especially Jennifer Lawrence.
Her acting is
phenomenal! Woody Harrelson, plays the drunken mentor Haymitch
equally well. Its success is also attributable to good costume, set
design and film direction. Viewers can actually feel the horrifying
moments and fully empathize to the peoples rage against authority in
the movie never wanting to live in a culture like that. People who
worked for this certainly did this best wanting viewers to watch some
more in the immediate future. Time constraint in film showing was
never an issue to realize the gist and the important element in the
story No wonder, Catching Fire , its sequel soon followed. It is really
impressive.
