The Hunger Movie Review. Full review | original score: I thought that the hunger games movie was overall an “ok” film with just the right amount of special affects and action sequences to complement a decent story.
The first of them was bobby sands, whose agonizing death is seen with an implacable level gaze in the closing act of the film. This explains why the movie runs for. It concerns the fierce battle between the irish republican army and the british state, which in 1981 led to a hunger strike in which 10 ira prisoners died.
“the hunger games” is an effective entertainment, and jennifer lawrence is strong and convincing in the central role.
The hunger is hampered by a humorless, weak story and shallow, undefined characters. Full review | original score: The director and producers stuck very close to the book as far as the story goes. Anchored by fassbender s turn, hunger is as much about the personal as the political.
