CriticsCritics: 59
AudienceAudience: 6.8

Decades before the original Hunger Games story, a struggling young man is assigned to mentor a tribute from District 12. As he tries to improve their chances in a harsher, early version of the games, ambition, trust, and survival begin to shape his future.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like dystopian politics, morally complex character studies, and the world of The Hunger Games; Not for you if slow pacing, long runtimes, or frequent songs frustrate you.
