"..The Girl on Fire".

I finally watched the 'popularly praised' movie The Hunger Games and contrary to some 'popular' belief that it would be a total bore,it was'nt.

It was like watching Twilight Breaking Dawn in a Bugatti Veyron doing 270km/h in a school zone area,totally mind boggling,well atleast after 59 minutes of it.

Twilight meets Avatar, imagine the technology and incredible story line of Avatar and the scenery and 'polished-snot nosed' teenagers of the Twilight series to create the close-to-brilliance that is The Hunger Games, though the movie is highly political..and no, i don't think i'll go it that, just yet, the movie was awesome and I'll leave it at that.

Sadly not everyone agrees with me, for example a girl with which I watched the movie has a slighty different view and brings up an interesting point. though keep in mind that she occasionally grabbed my arm and screamed during some intense scenes..

"nice movie shame bt its def nt my idea of a brilliant thot out action film..watchn a bunch of teens kill each otha?!Ow en app its da next "Twilight"..ok look,da movie is gud,bt nt tht gud.I mean thez r two completely diff concepts,y compare nyway!Wit tht sed,i giv it 7/10." - Sivenathi Mabuya-(facebook.com)

So you go watch it and decide for yourself.
