The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is a movie based on Suzanne Collins’ novel that was directed by Francis Lawrence. Starring Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen, Josh Hutcherson as Peeta Mellark, Liam Hemsworth as Gale, Woody Harrelson as Haymitch Abernathy, Philip Seymour Hoffman as Plutarch Heavensbee, Donald Sutherland as President Snow, and many more. This sequel was rather more successful than the first installment. With the fact that this movie was made with nearly twice the budget as the first, I guess it was expected by many, that this one should be better. Then again, the changing of the director’s seat may seem to raise an eyebrow. So I expect, the director could bring us something new, something fresh by making this film much more entertaining than the first, with many intense moments alongside a heart-breaking ending, which is a cliffhanger actually. But I am for sure before I watch this, this movie could be an a-class movie, and deserves much more praise. I was wrong. I just had a thought that maybe the director just tried too hard, and eventually kind of screwed the plot. Luckily, he puts an effort on the technical side, which makes this movie ‘not that bad’.

This quote is an indication to readers how Katniss’s world seems kind of hopeless and people are barely surviving. It is easy for readers to picture these worn out, unclean, starving, exhausted people and it’s also expressing to readers the degree of poverty Katniss and the people of District Twelve live in. Her conditions in the games however were illustrated to readers as a world of survival, the description of the arena as a jungle, the way temperatures would rise and drop when they’d least expect it and the effect it had on her and Peeta, and the way she had to survive an attack of a fire wall descending upon her at the end of Chapter Twelve and throughout the beginning of Chapter Thirteen. In this midst of this world of survival drawn out for readers by Collins, there is an encounter where Katniss humanity shines and overpowers her need to survive.

To begin with, The Hunger Games is the first book in the Hunger Games Trilogy, and is written by Suzanne Collins. First off, the novel takes place in Penem, a make-believe future where the Capital is surrounded by districts. The Districts are like slaves to the Capital, give away resources to the Capital and only keep some resources to themselves; so you can imagine that the districts are very poor. The Capital also forces the districts to give up one boy and girl to go to annual Hunger Games, so to prevent War. Katniss, the main character in the book, ends up being part of the hunger games alongside with Peeta. Katniss then has to fight for her life because there may only be one victor. Lastly, throughout this book you’ll see conformity and civil disobedience play a huge role in the Hunger Games.

Just as the town clock strikes two, the mayor steps up to the podium and begins to read. It’s the same story every year. He tells of the history of Panem, the country that rose up out of the ashes of a place that was once called North America. He lists the disasters, the droughts, the storms, the fires, the encroaching seas that swallowed up so much of the land, the brutal war for what little sustenance remained.
