The Hunger Games is becoming something of a phenomenon. Like Twilight, it is manufactured primarily for young adults (or YA) and does its best to deal with \u2018serious\u2019 subjects. But this is precisely where I find both of them to be disturbing and completely unnecessary. The Hunger Games, for those uninitiated, is about a post-apocalyptic future where adolescents and teenagers are pitted against each other for a battle to the death. Indeed, Battle Royale did it before, but there\u2019s a big different between what the latter did and what The Hunger Games is doing right now. In the case of The Hunger Games, we have an author and filmmaker who are seeking to sell this pasteurized, ironed out science-fiction world, where all of the real disturbing nature of what\u2019s actually happening has been cleaned up and removed so it can be sold easily and digested by young adults and 20-somethings alike.<\/p>\n<p>Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence (blander than she\u2019s ever been before), lives in complete poverty in a district ominously named District-12. She resides in a future-world named Panem, what was once North America. She does her best to take care of her mother and younger sister with the use of her terrific hunting and marksmanship with a bow\u2014and like in all futuristic societies, there\u2019s an overbearing, almost totalitarian regime that does their best to keep all of the districts in line and impoverished. The Capitol&#8211; the hub of the rich and well-off&#8211; host an event called The Hunger Games. It\u2019s an annual event that brings together all of the districts, as two contestants are selected from each one. Katniss\u2019 younger sister is chosen, but in order to save her from the games, Katniss nominates herself instead.<\/p>\n<p>Director Gary Ross gives the film a gritty, handheld aesthetic that works for the most part, considering the rugged, earthy tones while in District-12. And the world is indeed very believable, especially the districts. But the problems are the cast of characters we have here. Katniss, indeed, is a strong female protagonist. However, she proves herself to be completely without personality, right alongside everyone else. A majority of the contestants in The Hunger Games event prove themselves to be faceless, nameless people merely set in place for the kill. One of the best examples is the band of one- dimensional, \u2018evil\u2019 teenagers. Cato (Alexander Ludwig) is the alpha-male leader by default. They are never given much sympathy. In fact, they are almost completely deranged. And yes, there are several others characters whose names they share with people of the Ancient Roman Empire\u2014as if the symbolism wasn\u2019t heavy-handed enough.<\/p>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t get much better. Katniss slowly falls for her fellow District-12 member, Peeta (Josh Hutcherson), who loves her dearly. This is where it starts to show its teeny-bopper roots. Unbelievable and underdeveloped, the romance works as only a gimmicky way for us to show some sympathy towards the two. It could have benefited from some extra breathing room for the characters to bond. There\u2019s barely any time for that. The Hunger Games does flow well, though. It moves at a brisk pace despite the long running time (142 minutes). It does commit a few faults, which include numerous deus ex machina. Katniss, of course, is miraculously saved time and time again by the author\/screenwriter rather than her own skills and abilities.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, well, I\u2019ll admit, I\u2019m being very harsh towards it. It\u2019s not a bad film\u2014it\u2019s well-made and the sense of foreboding and suspense are certainly there. It also shows some signs of intelligence. Katniss illustrates her warm-hearted nature by refusing to kill, and when she finally does, she expresses her anguish by attempting to wash the blood from her hands. Does this make up for the rest of the bloodshed? What about all of the other teenagers who were needlessly killed, manipulated and discarded for no reason? Katniss expresses her sadness when a loving, sweet character dies\u2014but what about everyone else? Gary Ross and Suzanne Collins, as good as their intentions may be, created a film that exploits and relishes in the fight to the death of innocent kids. And I realized, as I looked around the theater and as the \u2018games began\u2019, that people were\u2014 ironically enough\u2014excited about seeing the bloodshed. This can\u2019t have been what they wanted, right?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical: C<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Acting: C-<\/p>\n<p>Story: D<\/p>\n<p><strong>Overall: C-<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/hunger-games-oscar-nominated1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-89624\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/hunger-games-oscar-nominated1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/hunger-games-oscar-nominated1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/hunger-games-oscar-nominated1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: The Hunger Games Directed By: Gary Ross Starring: Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Elizabeth Banks, Stanley Tucci On buses, in stores, and in libraries, you\u2019ve seen them being read.
