She was really good in this. There are a lot of quiet parts where her acting is just her facial expressions. She handles it well. The thoughts of Katniss that are able to be expressed in words in the book are pretty well reflected in Lawrence's acting IMO. She is a really nice casting decision.

She is perfect for the part. Thin and not overly attractive and she can act. Woody Harrelson is great casting as well. I seen an interview where he let it slip that he signed on for 3 more movies. I'm thinking this movie will box office around 70 million first weekend. |

Going to see this tonight on IMAX, and I cannot wait! Yes, the romance aspect of it draws you in somewhat at first. I also think it's partly the fact that she has basically taken on the role of taking care of her mother and little sister in hard times. It's not just the romance aspect, it's the fact that she's a strong young lady with a good head on her shoulders.

Seems like I already saw this when it was called Running Man.

I love how everyone is comparing this movie to others whenever they haven't seen it (and in some cases have not read the books).

Actually its contestants in a to-the-death competition for entertainment for the wealthy privileged capitol. The poor huddled masses revolt against the Hunger Games.

I'd be willing to bet your husband didn't read the Twilight books. I found Bella to be an incredibly whiny and annoying character, ugh, so I guess Katniss seemed okay in comparison and I don't remember really thinking that about her too often when I read the hunger game books. Sometimes, sure, but not in a way that caused me not to enjoy the books. I guess Katniss' pretty frickin horrible situation throughout, she didn't seem too overly whiny about it to me.
