the hunger games.

the movie everybody is talking about.

which made me and ahpok curious enough to buy tickets. LOL.

its a film adaptation of a trilogy by suzanne collins.

set in a world where the country is split into districts.

each district is different, in terms of their lifestyles and financial status.

which reminds me of the society in 'In Time'. another awesome movie <3

so every year each district, 12 of them in total,

has to send a pair of tributes to take part in a gory tornament.

24 tributes have to kill each other to survive, cause only one victor is allowed.

sort of like gladiators. :x

purpose of it all?

to punish them for staging a rebellion which happened a long time ago.

the govt phrased it in a much nicer way, but we all know its bullshit.

seriously some heavy propaganda going on :x

i wont go into other details, cause i'm against spoilers for people who havent watched :B

i'll just give my comments. heheh.

katniss everdeen is <3 !

she's got this steely resolve, plus she's really brave.

ice queen on the outside but to her loved ones, she doesnt put on that front.

jennifer lawrence as katniss = eye candy throughout the show.

love her eyes and cheekbones heheh.

the kind of manipulation that the capitol guys used is damn evil la.

using human lives as pawns in their games. humanity at its worst and lowest point.

but you'll see some touching scenes as well.

like this death scene, i actually teared,

but uh its cause i went to think of my ahgong;

whether he had gone thru the same thing when he passed away. :/

so overall, it was an awesome movie !

made me wanna read the trilogy liao hahah.

cant wait for the film's sequels too. :D
