For the trigger warnings pf Slavery and Racism I have to point out

Spoiler

that althought it isn't completely explicit the representation of the agriculture district seemed like a very explicit portrayal of racism and slavery

Graphic: Blood, Violence, and Injury/Injury detail

The Hunger Games, dark, a rip roaring adventure. Wouldn’t recommend for the faint of heart or squeamish. Given the plot line in which children are pitted against each other, the injuries are well depicted. Other than that, The Hunger Games is perfect for those who like a heart racing, rip roaring adventure
