Review of The Hunger Games (2012) by Joshua Rothkopf for Time Out — 20 Mar 2012
If the movie had a lead actress more delicate or malleable than the strong-cheeked Lawrence-a Natalie Portman, say-it would tip over into sexy-girl-killer celebration; the same goes for Harrelson's salty mentor, who is never too supportive or paternal.
Both performers lean into the economies of survival, certain of the savagery that lies ahead, and come up with sharp work.
