The Hunger Games [Blu-ray] [2012]

I saw this movie from start to finish and it was the bomb. This Hunger Games movie was off the chain and I say that this movie is way better than the rest of the other Hunger Games movies that I ever seen and if they have another Hunger Games movie that I want to get from Best Buy, I will be first in line to get it because the Hunger Games movies are truly my favorite movies ever. Thank you very much Best Buy, yours truly, Zaida Quijano.

I was going to a teenagers birthday party from a neighbor on my block. Had a credit from B.B. so why not!!!! Ended up being a "surprised perfect gift for Nichole & her Mom also impressed with my choice of selection! Thanks for the $5.00 bin @ the check out line!

Great opener in the Hunger Games series. I really liked the story, plot, well acted and direction. J Law is shines bright in this movie that propelled her career! Lenny Kravitz always gives a solid performance as well. ~fin

This movie is awesome! This is all I have to say. Now bestbuy if u don't like don't ask me to ever review a movie again!

Surrounding the capital city of a nation in ruins, are twelve separate districts that are all over-populated by desperate residents. How do you pacify such angry citizens? Simple: Reality television. No, not Jersey Shore, something much worse. Or better, depending on how you look at it. Katniss Everdeen (played by Jennifer Lawrence of Winter’s Bone and X -Men: First Class) is a skilled tracker, hunter, and survivalist who lives in the impoverished District 12 where most earn their living in the mines. Her mother (played by Paula Malcolmson) has been struggling since her husband died, leaving her to raise Katniss and her sister Prim by herself. Katniss (Lawrence) is sixteen and a close friend of Gale Hawthorne (played by Liam Hemsworth) who dreams of running away. Every year, each of the twelve districts randomly selects two children (one boy and one girl) or “tributes” no younger than 12 and no older than 18 and Gale (Hemsworth) believes he’s dodged the bullet as long as he can. Still, when the tributes are selected, Gale is spared and so is Katniss. But when Prim (Katniss’s sister) is chosen. Katniss volunteers to take her place. Making her and Peeta Melark, (a baker’s son portrayed by Jess Hutcherson of Bridge to Terabithia and Journey to the Center of the Earth) the candidates for the 74th annual, winner-take-all, death match known as The Hunger Games. Held in the Capital, The Hunger Games are broadcast live to the entire nation. Each participant is trained, sponsored, and ranked and then locked in a massive, futuristic Coliseum with remote control hazards, predators, and cameras hidden throughout. Now, this was a much-anticipated film. I was greatly intrigued by the trailers, but Twilight was also much-anticipated and no matter how much love it gets from the audience, I haven’t even been able to sit through the first installment. Then, I saw the generally positive response from critics and took it upon myself to see this highly entertaining, dramatic effort and I urge those patrons out there who haven’t seen it to do so at there earliest possible convenience. This is a great film.

I upgraded each of the movies in this awesome series from DVD to Blu-Ray; it was well worth the investment.

Entertainment success to watch on bored nights and stormy nights. Days. Special occasions.

Great Movie and a Great Picture Quality! Must Have!
