Synopsis

In a not-too-distant future, the United States of America has collapsed,weakened by drought, fire, famine, and war, to be replaced by Panem, a country divided into the Capitol and 12 districts. Part entertainment, part brutal intimidation of the subjugated districts, the Hunger Games are broadcasted throughout Panem as 24 participants are forced to eliminate their competitors, literally, with all citizens required to watch. When 16-year-old Katniss' young sister, Prim, is selected as her female representative, Katniss volunteers to take her place. She and her male counterpart, Peeta, will be pitted against bigger, stronger representatives who have trained for this their whole lives.

Comments: Superb in all respects. One has to wonder, how much of this movie's storyline is prophetic? Perhaps this theme may become a reality Show.
