The Hunger Games [DVD]

Product Information

To sum it all up, it is one of my all-time FAVORITES! The story is intriguing and well thought out, the violence is fairly bloody but not overly gory, swearing and sexy stuff are kept to a minimum, and the alcoholic character sobers as the movie goes on. There are great messages and lessons we can learn from this movie. I think it is appropriate for nearly all teens, but it's an iffy choice for anyone under 13 years old. They meet Effie Trinket, their escort, and Haymitch Abernathy, their alcoholic mentor and the lone surviving Hunger Games winner from their district, who vows to sober up enough to assist Katniss and Peeta survive the Games after recognizing that they have some fighting spirit. Katniss and Peeta meet their stylists as they arrive at the Training Center. Are The Hunger Games Movies on Netflix, Prime, Disney Plus, HBO, or Hulu? Where to Watch The Hunger Games Online?

Her bow and arrow skills are unsurpassed after many years of hunting wildlife in the woods. During her private session with the Gamemakers, they award her an 11 out of 12 for her abilities and tenacity. As the couple’s CG train zips between districts, we see how Snow’s stormtroopers clamp down on what little freedom remains, offset by the empty frivolity of life in the capital — a nonstop binge-and-purge banquet where wild hairstyles and lavish costume changes provide a distraction from an idle existence.Did you know you can flag iffy content?

The movie begins with Katniss and Peeta on their victory tour, during which they are allowed to not only see how the other 11 districts live but also to see the first symptoms of rebellion across the country. Having already resisted the capital, the pair represents hope to all those who feel oppressed, just as their narrative inspires real-world auds to feel the same way. How do the characters in the film demonstrate courage, self-control, perseverance, and teamwork? Why are these important character strengths? When Katniss meets Cinna, a young guy who dresses casually and uses very little makeup compared to the other stylists, she is pleasantly delighted. Katniss and Peeta are introduced as a pair at the opening ceremonies, a method that has never been done before. Katniss gets the moniker “girl on fire” as they race through the Capitol in a chariot while holding hands, their costumes glowing in false flames.

Video Release Breakdown

Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark become targets of the Capitol after their victory in the 74th Hunger Games sparks a rebellion in the Districts of Panem. The original Death Race 2000 is one of my favorite films of all time. It is campy, B-movie fun with a serious satirical streak to it. The film spawned a remake / prequel in 2008, which in turn spawn two, soon to be three sequels, none of which really captured the essence of the original. However, Death Race 2050 is produced by Roger Corman, so does that mean it will be closer in tone and quality?
