Going into a movie expecting to be disappointed helps! I really liked it! And I'm so glad I was wrong about Katniss' attire.

I especially liked the way the movie handled the Opening Ceremonies/Presentation of the Tributes. It was perfect: So glitzy, so red-carpet. The visual presentation of the dichotomy between Haves and HaveNots was spot-on.

There were things I wished they had done differently, but at least I wasn't wanting to scream at the screen throughout the whole thing. I wondered how they would get away with a PG-13 rating considering all the killing, and I'm happy with what they chose to do. I do wish, however, that they would've given us more of an opportunity to meet the other Tributes.
