The book this new Hunger Games is based on was actually pretty solid, it is worth a read for anyone interested.
I feel like the YA novel-to-movie thing died forever ago, this movie feels like it would have came out 10 years ago.
Personally, I skipped this movie because of main actress and the trannie.
I enjoyed the book too. It is not at all woke or obnoxious.
The basic message of The Hunger Games is pretty great. Person fighting against powerful central government that rules with an iron fist and tightly controls what its people see nd know by keeping them entertained with degenerate bloodsports. Without getting into spoilers, all governments suck and become tyrannical, and it's up to individuals to fight for freedom.
I didn't know about this movie, but I am 100% skipping anything with that actress as the lead.
The last show I enjoyed got canceled because the last ten minutes cost so much in special effects. At a cliffhanger. At least books have HEA, or cliffhanger warnings. I'll just stick to books.
