But where is the greatest charm of this topical work? Jennifer Lawrence and a group of youth idols' all-round appearances get together? Is it the cruel and unusual "Battle Royale" competition setting, or the future background in the post-apocalyptic era, or the climax of survival battles? Dear, these may not be the elements that can resonate with young people. When you open your eyes and examine it, the answer will be obvious.
From a technical level, "Hunger" is a work with few highlights and not too many flaws. The narrative is smooth and the rhythm is right, maybe because Steven and Soderberg joined, some of the pictures were shot with a hand-cranked lens, which enhanced the texture and strength of the image language. However, people who have read the original may understand that the large number of psychological monologues in the original text from the protagonist's first perspective may be a big problem in image processing. In fact, the film did take this into consideration, and instead used a lot of close-up shots and facial expressions to deal with it. But for most mainland movie fans, the congenital unfamiliarity with the original will cause a decline in the pleasure of watching the movie in the first time. Although the film strives to restore a large number of details in the original, from the introduction of the general background, the depiction of the Congress District, the introduction of the game competition, and the rendering of a group of portraits, this obviously affects the direction of the film. And the distribution of orgasms. So when the legendary real attraction-"The Hunger Games" really kicks off, your enthusiasm for watching movies may have been consumed by most.
Another distressing problem is that although "The Hunger Games" did not share some of the failures in the genre film market for the youth after "Twilight" ("Percy Jackson and the God and Fire Thief", "Critical No. 4" "Etc.) It's so cheating, and the production standard is good; the magnificent and diverse location, the character modeling of the classic luxury style and the American vintage, like a decent TV show, and even the baggage of laughter. But obviously he is too eager to attract target groups like teenagers: the story clues are rather single, the climax scenes are not rendered enough, there is no strong action scene support, the main characters do not need too much, and the inexplicable love of dog blood. Of course, all of this is indeed a "Twilight" standard formula, although the film does not show bloody torture and human cruelty. It combines the style of the near future with the magnificent baroque city and various cool vehicles. Practical guidelines for wild survival techniques and the exaggerated and luxurious styles of the people in the Congress District, but compared with the final tangled love scenes and childish story trends, they can be instantly forgotten.
So please ignore the positioning of Shenma's American version of "Battle Royale", such a story that should have a grand world view, and the intricate clues of the story text is completely "Twilight", for fans and young people. , Seeing a group of young idols fighting and talking is naturally a good thing, and the film is definitely in place. But on the other hand, how popular are their target viewers in the country as the biggest golden sign? After stripping these off, "The Hunger Games"'s dog-blood youth drama really makes people look a little bit helpless.
