I got to go and see the movie today.
It was amazing. Obviously there were some parts left out... but you can't fit the entire book in a 2.5 hour movie. I really only had two issues. Rue and Katniss weren't together long enough for the friendship to develop enough. And I wish they had said something about the muttations looking familiar when they were on the cornucopia. I KIND of wish they had developed Peeta and Katniss's relationship a bit better, but I was happy with it.
The movie was definitely exciting and suspenseful, even though I already knew what was going to happen. I'm glad I decided against re-reading the book. If I had I would have picked apart the movie because it would have been completely fresh in my mind. I may read it again now though.
I will say that I was, and always will be, a Peeta fan. Ever since book one. I love Peeta.
If you haven't yet, I hope you go see the movie and enjoy it as much as I did. I didn't want to say too much because, even though I know many of you have read the movie, it's still that much better to go see it without knowing every detail.
I saw it earlier today and I loved it! I am also glad I didn't re-read the book before hand... I would have compared every little thing!
ReplyDeleteI'm Team Gale all the way through!
I haven't watched it yet- but I can't wait to see it! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI'm more of a Gale type in the movie. I'm reading the books now for the first time (started in the first book today), but Peeta annoyed me! I did love the movie and the other actors. They did a great job.
