As Panem prepares itself for the third 'Quarter Quell' (75th Hunger Games), autocratic ruler President Coriolanus Snow (Donald Sutherland), still smarting from the Capitol's humiliation in the last games, stacks the deck to ensure that the upcoming tournament will wipe out any resistance from the districts once and for all.English.

Good value collection for new fans, but lacking in special features
I love the Hunger Games books (having read them after seeing the first film) but it was Jennifer Lawrence in the films who truly brought the character of Katniss Everdeen to life. The first two films are the best I think, the last two suffer a little from being drawn out (these being the last book split into two. Somehow, the latter 2 films managed to fit in a lot of detail, yet still cut out parts of the book. Certainly good value to buy the whole series if you are interested in any of the films by themselves. The pace of Mockingjay Part 2 did seem a little slow sometimes. But the entire story is a compelling one overall.What was disappointing however, particularly for fans waiting for the box set, is that there is no bonus material in the DVD set. It features an outer card sleeve and some new artwork, but there are no special features or deleted scenes, only with Catching Fire. Furthermore, The Hunger Games disc has written on it 'Movie', which clearly shows it to be surplus stock from the 2DVD individual release. Seems a little cheap. Normally I am the first to say that there shouldn't be new material in box sets as if fans are expected to buy the films again for the new material, but I did think there ought to have been at least the special features from each of the individual film releases in this.More ashamedly, all the effort went into the Bluray release instead, with exclusive artwork and postcards and bonus material etc. Not fair. But still, a great value collection in a stylish box.

Highly recommended
So this is specifically a review of the Blu-ray box set. Firstly, it has to be said that the picture quality and sound quality are outstanding if you are using any sort of home cinema system with a decent screen and sound setup. If you want to see and hear your system at its best, this box set is well worth getting.The films themselves will appeal to anyone who likes movies based on possible dystopian futures. Basically the premise of the films is that the country is split into districts and, as punishment for an uprising against the authorities many years previously, each district is required to submit two youngsters to take part in the Hunger Games, which is a nasty, heavily televised fight to the death between the 'tributes' submitted by the districts. Not for the faint hearted, but the films are about much more than violence. They are about the way in which the country is ruled and oppressed in the future. Highly recommended.

The hunger games boxset
I really like the first few hunger games films. I didnt enjoy the last 2 as much. It was cheaper to get the boxset though than just 1 film.

You'll hunger for this steelbook
I'm not going to comment on the actual films as I don't think that is the purpose of this review. The steelbook is lovely with full face portraits of 4 of the main characters on the front,back & inside artwork of the item. The portraits are black & white but have red flashes on them & this coupled with the matt black backgrounds gives the entire steelbook a very striking appearance. There are only 2 holders in the steelbook which gives it a neater inside that most multi disc steelbooks but having 2 discs on each holder is a bit weird until you get used to it. Removing the discs initially was a little difficult but after that they come out easily. The discs themselves are also striking & they are are much, much prettier than a bog standard blue disc. All in all this is one of the better looking steelbooks & having a magnetic lenticular cover to put over the front is the icing on the cake. This lenticular is top quality & very distinctive. If you like the films it is well worth paying the little extra to get the steelbook over the ordinary 4 disc blu ray
