The film version of
Suzanne Collins' novel is due for release on 23 March, 2012 and stars Jennifer Lawrence (most recently seen in
X-Men: First Class) as Katniss Everdeen. Donald Sutherland, Woody Harrelson, Stanley Tucci, Elizabeth Banks, Lenny Kravitz and Toby Jones also have supporting roles.
The film has a good cast and Lawrence is a rising talent who should be great in the lead role. Director Gary Ross also has some interesting form, with his most notable previous movies being
Pleasantville and
Seabiscuit.
This looks… not good.
ReplyDeleteEverything seems too clean. And I’m getting the impression that we’re going to get a lot of jitter cam, jump cut nonsense in lieu of any real intensity.
I can't see the movie because of all the shaky cam. I get massive headaches from barely any of it. I haven't been able to see half the movies released in the last five years.
ReplyDeleteI'm hopeful that this is just a rough trailer. The story looks interesting and I'm now going to read the books.
