The book and the movie have several similarities. In both the movie and the novel, Katnis s volunteers for the Games, deliverance her sister Prim. Another comparison is the Capitols power amongst the 12 districts. The most important similarity is that in both the novel and the movie, Peeta states that he does not want the Games to change him, for he wants to stay true to himself. Katniss does not know how that is possible, until she participates in the Hunger Games.In both the movie and the novel, Peeta does not murder any other tributes during the Games. The novel has some major differences as well. The mockingjay pin that Katniss wears for good luck represents District 12. In the book she receives this boon from the mayors daughter, Madge however, in the movie, Katniss receives this pin from her younger sister, Prim. Another difference is Katnisss relationship with her ally Rue. In the book, the author emphasizes their relationship and how they work together as a team during the Hunger Games.However, in the movie they keep their relationship short. The last differenc e occurs at the end of the novel. In the novel the beasts that kill the last tribute are called muttations. There are 9 of these beasts which resemble the fallen tributes. In the movie they are just beastly looking mutated dogs. The Hunger Games is a great book. It shows the differences in social stratum and has many underlying meanings. The movie was just as good and follows the plot very well. It was a fine more futuristic looking than I had imagined from the novel, but still captured the overall theme well.
