I only saw the first movie and thought wow, what a horrible piece of garbage. The classic problem of female authors: passive protagonist.

The only thing Katniss does that shows any initiative is take her sister's place. That's it. She is a total charisma vacuum, she spends the rest of the movie hiding and running away, and when it comes down to the finale instead of doing something interesting and killing her friend, she does the most passive-aggressive stupid teen girl thing ever: threatens to kill herself, and it works for some reason.

It's completely retarded "there has to be a winner" umm no, having the last survivors kill themselves is a perfectly fine ending that ties up the event nicely. The evil government just gives both provinces food and there's no living survivors to lead a movement against you. Duh.

Horrible, stupid, unwatchable trash.
