Just watched the movie.
In my opinion la, the story in the beginning which is before the arena scenes is very good. I thought it was good that they talked about it every single thing in the book (except the mockingjay pin part without Madge in it).
But then in the arena, everything happened too fast. As i expected, they really didn't focus much on other tributes like what in the book (i mean, not as much as in the book). But then my friends couldn't really catch up who is who, you know what i mean

I also expected the MOST important scene between Rue and Katniss to be appeared in the movie, but then it didn't. I feel kinda disappointed with that la.
Overall it's still a good adapted film. Just that if you read the book, you'd feel slightly disappointed. I will still watch the 2nd and 3rd part of the movie.
OH and btw, Elizabeth Banks as Effie and Tucci as Caeser, THEY ARE VERY VERY GOOD. I like them.
And not to mention, I think Jennifer Lawrence is perfect for Katniss this role.
