Some books are changed to appeal to the big screen, but many original book fans prefer for movie directors to stick strictly to the book. Many fans of the book Catching Fire are pleased with the current motion picture.

Directed by Francis Lawrence, the plot, characters and other small details of Catching Fire reflect the events that occur in the book. Junior Ethan Watson said, “The end of the movie was infuriatingly similar to the end of the book.”

Fans of the Hunger Games series continue to support Francis Lawrence, also the director for the Mocking Jay part one, and his interpretation of the book.
