Than you'll like the second even better



The book is more violent. This might not be a point for the book for everyone, but it was for me. The movie doesn’t necessarily shy away from the violence, but it’s not always front-and-center like it is in the book. I get the impression that the filmmakers quieted down or glossed over the more violent, gruesome scenes to keep parents happy and Katniss’ narration in the book is missing in the movie. It’s largely made up for by Jennifer Lawrence’s fan-frickin-tastic acting and really smart cinematography, but there are a still a few Katniss-thoughts that are missing. Either way I liked both the movie and book. Indecision....(unhelpful right...sorry)
