7/10
The perfect adaptation
19 January 2014
The hunger games: Catching fire was, for me, the best out of the three books. Therefore, as you can imagine, I was really looking forward to watching this film, especially since it has an 8.2 in IMDb. I must say I was not disappointed. Sure, they left out a few awesome moments from the book; but had it been in the film, it would have been almost three hours long. I felt satisfied in that sense, unlike with the first one (7/10). I felt the first film was missing too many things and there were certain scenes that disappointed me.

Jennifer Lawrence is good in EVERYTHING!! So it goes without saying that she nails the Katniss role for the second time in a row. The other actors are very good as well, especially the one who plays Finnick. He is fantastic! The directing is a big improvement from the first one.

Not much else to comment on, except that you should totally watch this film despite having, or not, read the book. In conclusion: this is, easily, the best adaptation book-to-film I have ever seen.
