What Was The Last Movie You Saw? Welcome Cinephiles.

I saw the "Hunger Games" film yesterday, I needed a couple hours of escapism.

It looked good, the art direction and cinematography were solid but overall I found the film adaptation soulless. So much is removed from the story, so that the screenplay flows from one action sequence to another, that none of the characters (or relationships between characters) are developed beyond surface level. And sadly it sets up "Catching Fire" and "Mockingjay" to be the same.

I thought it was well visioned but hollow; and that is a shame because they had good material to work with.
