    one of the worst movies i've seen. first off, it's incredibly disturbing that someone would make a movie/book that revolves around "kids" killing other "kids" for sport/spectacle. and the scary part is how popular it is? i don't get it? i also don't get (in the movie) how anyone in there right mind would allow their kid/s to participate in such a killing spectacle. it would never happen. parents would do anything to protect their kid/s. the only way this would even be feasible. is if the parents and kids were segregated (concentration camps). but that's not the case. anyways, the movie was horrible and doesn't deserve any positive recognition.

    very powerful movie and lots of action. not suitable for young children but perfect for the preteen and teen as well as adult. some very sympathetic characters and a good story.

    wow, i wasnt sure what to expect, but i was captivated every moment. the thought of what was going on was horrifying but the storyline was well played. i especially like that the way it ended was satisfying, like you were happy with that ending, but it left it open enough that there could be so much more made of it. very well put together. i didnt really like the actor she had to pretend to love or the one she did love. they were harder to believe for their parts. different actors wouldve been better.
