And finally, the two parts that could have been hammy and disappointing were entertaining to watch: Stanley Tucci as host of the Hunger Games Caesar Flickerman and a devilishly hilarious Elizabeth Banks as the District 12 tribute chooser Effie Trinket. Woody Harrelson was snarky and sweet as drunken mentor Haymitch, though a little more drunk would have been nice. His performance is simultaneously sweet and heartbreaking. And tributes Alexander Ludwig as the evil Cato and Amandla Stenberg as Rue were utterly convincing. Josh Hutcherson was great as Peeta, the boy who has loved Katniss for years and was too afraid to show it. Special attention must also be paid to the beautifully quiet performance from Lenny Kravitz as Katniss' stylist and friend, Cinna. In the brilliant parts, she excelled and during the lacking sections of the film she raised the quality ten-fold. Jennifer Lawrence is ferocious as Katniss Everdeen and carried the film wonderfully.
