In the book we knew Peeta had blood poisoning, and would die without medication. In the movie he seemed to have a big boo-boo on his leg, and my husband (who had not read the books) could not figure out why she risked her life when she could have used the salve she already had. Otherwise I agree with mostly everything in your review, but I would give the movie a 7 1/2.<br />-JulietteJuliettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14603696893629751658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196882084533012141.post-28015662177502499532012-03-28T11:53:00.434-04:002012-03-28T11:53:00.434-04:00I guess they did the best that they could in the t...I guess they did the best that they could in the time allotted. Adaptations are always a bit of a disappointment...they never have the character development that the books have. (And to me that is the best part) But it was a great "action" movie in it's own right.<br /><br />♥MelissaMelissas Eclectic Bookshelfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954443867000135343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196882084533012141.post-38668187978449302982012-03-27T21:35:42.882-04:002012-03-27T21:35:42.882-04:00Great comparison!

I was a bit iffy with the book vs. movie as well, but I think they did a wonderful job and I liked the additions to the movie.madelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02557562029499227610noreply@blogger.com
