Today we treated ourselves to a night at the cinema in Durham to see the latest installment of the Hunger Games filmatic series. And once again, I was not disappointed.
Having just finished the book I was especially eager to see how true the adaptation was, and despite some minor details being skimmed over (or at least re-imagined) the overall effect was brilliant. The advantage of a film over the book is that the film can go beyond the first-person perspective of the written works, allowing a huge opportunity for filmmakers to allow extra detail not seen in the books. As I'm refraining from posting any spoilers, I shall leave it there, with the recommendation that you read the books, watch the films, and join the fight.
