This past weekend we decided to purchase The Hunger Games. I knew my oldest would like it. I would of loved to read the books but maybe when she gets a little older that will be one of our summer goals. I was worried once speaking to my mother about my 7 year old watching the movie since there is a lot of kids killing kids in the movie but then I thought about it. Harry Potter has alot of killing also and she was fine with that one.
In the movie there is a lower class and if they get more food then they are given their names get put into the bowl. The rich pick 24 names. If you seen the previews the older sister volunteers once her younger sisters name gets pulled. They then train for the games over the next couple of days. Finding out the boy from district 12 has a crush on the girl from district 12. They use that to get sponsors. They need sponsors in order to get items in the game. Its pretty cruel how the kids get treated. It turns out good but I won't spoil it for anyone. Then again it left me wanting more.
Its a really good movie. If you haven't seen it yet, you should.
