The starving games
Year of release : 2013
Run time : 1h19min
Genre : Comedy / Parody / Sci Fi
The movie is based mostly on the first The Hunger Games movie.
Kantmiss Evershot lives in District 12 with her zombie mother, her sister Petunia, and boyfriend Dale. The district is so poor, the cows don't give milk, and people fight on bones, trying to even eat their own sk1n.
The new Starving Games are announced, and they get ready to go to the Gathering for the 75th Annual Starving Games. There, president Snowballs gives ridiculous reasons for splitting the US into districts, and gets people's interest in the games by offering ridiculous prizes, such as an old ham or a half eaten pickle ( trying to show how poor and hungry these people were).
Kantmiss' sister, Petunia, is selected, and Kantmiss is happy for a while she wasn't chosen, until she realizes her sister is, and she volunteers. Peter volunteers also, to be with Kantmiss.
At the show though, Peter seems to be into Marco, another contestant.
The Starving Games begin, and Kantmiss seems to be at the top of her game.
The movie was not bad, if it wasn't for the vulgar scenes, I think it would have been better.
The movie also parodies Harry Potter, Angry Birds, Avatar, Lord of the Rings, The Expendables, the movie closing with The Avengers. The lookalikes of LMFAO, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga appear in the movie.
I found the actors more attractive than the ones of the original Hunger Games (to me that movie had an ugly cast,as I remember I found the leads unattractive),starting with the actress who plays Kantmiss,to Seneca (who's a hunk).
The movie is really 1 hour and 8 minutes long, the rest is just the credits.
The movie grossed almost 4 million world wide, and received only negative reviews,getting one star out of 10.
Viewer discretion is advised,as the movie contains mature language.
The movie is on Plex for free, on Amazon Prime and Amazon Prime with ads for 30 days free!
Rating : Could have been a contender!..
