The Hunger Games (2012)
Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains. Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love. The world will be watching.

- beckles31about 9 yearsI loved this movie. It´s what started it all for Katniss and her family. This movie is about a strong bond between a family living in a post-apocalyptic world and what the capital is doing to destroy it even more. While getting picked to go into the games Katniss´s sister, Primrose, got chosen. So, Katniss volunteered as tribute. They also picked a boy named Peeta. Along the way, Peeta and Katniss receive two mentors. Effy, a fashionista with style and taste. And Hamich, an alcoholic who is not the sweetest guy. Once they both enter the games, Katniss gets close with a little girl named Rue. But then something terrible happens to Rue. To find out more watch the movie to find the answers. Help take down the capital.
- amazingly beautiful, awe inspiring, and mostly action pacted,i highly recommend it for ages 13 and up
