The Hunger Games (2012)
Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains. Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love. The world will be watching.

This is the best book ever who agrees
awesomedude56about 11 yearsI really want to watch this movie! I watched the second one and it is very good. I think it would be funny if I only watched the second and third movie.
gap430about 11 yearsI want to watch this because everyone loves it and, it is scary. I have not watched it yet because my mom doesn't think I am big enough, because i am only 10. I will definitely watch it around my 11th birthday. I am excited to watch it.
lulu206222about 11 yearsI love this movie so much- ClovefromTHGabout 11 yearsI LOVE this movie! I would reccomend it for anyone above the age of 10 as you need to be able to not get scared, my friends and I are major fangirls and we would FLIP if we ever met the cast...please? I am a Fuhrmanizer (Clove) and I have been since I saw this movie. Before you ask, yes I do have a major obsession with Clove (and Cato!!)
themockingjayabout 11 yearsI'm a fangirl too :D I ship Clato and Everlark. This movie is amazing, and I'm pretty glad Francis Lawrence got a chance to direct Catching Fire and Mockingjay (Both part 1 and 2) I think he did a better job of portraying the story, but Gary Ross did a pretty amazing job aswell :D May the odds be ever in your favor, and I hope you meet the THG cast. I would die if I got the chance to!
- ThnksFrThMmrsabout 11 years*Warning i may say a spoiler* This movie is incredible. I would recommend reading the book before seeing this film. It does have some gore in it so i don't recommend watching this if your are under the age of ten. Some parts were disappointing, though, such as how she got her pin and the whole Madge thing, but other than that, well done with this one!
- themockingjayabout 11 yearsI agree with this, Madge was pretty important. My little sister saw it with her friend (Without telling me or my parents) and did pretty well with it though. No nightmares surprisingly. xD She asked to see CF but I said no, although she might have no problem with it at all. I don't know if the age limit might be for everyone, b/c I read the series when they first came out, and I was pretty young then xD
