IFC.com ‏ @IFCtv "How "The Hunger Games" succeeds as an adaptation where "Twilight" and "Harry Potter" failed"

The movie has been asked by the BFI to cut certain scenes to get a "12A" certificate from the current "15" certificate. The movie is picturised in post-apocalyptic era where adults fight to death on live television. The movie is set to release on 23 March.
