watched: 25/08/2011

Watched this purely because Jennifer Lawrence is going to star in The Hunger Games as Katniss and while I have absolute faith in her, I still thought I should at least see one of her movies to get an idea of her acting skills. So as far as that goes, I was pleased because she definitely knows how to play a fighter living in poverty.
However, poor people are depressing and so this whole thing just kind of drags, to the point where I was wondering what the whole point to it was. I’ve seen this refered to as Winter’s Bore, and while I wouldn’t go that far, it is a bit underwhelming.   4/10
