Dumpling gets hungry in this week’s Friday Features. Yep, that’s right. Suzanne Collins’ beloved The Hunger Games trilogy’s first installment is hitting the big screen. If you’re like us, you will have purchased tickets last month. Did you read the books? Have you seen the film? Let us know in the comments.

Young people killing each other in high-tech fashions with weapons of mass destruction in a giant outdoor arena? Sign us up! This isn’t Battle Royale westernized, this is Panem. Bitch.

Michael Hall, Lucy Liu and others star in this story of a man who falls into a relationship with a friend’s daughter only to be entangled in something that could lead to him finding a life of his own. Vague, right? It’s a delightfully looking comedy set in New York City (did we mention Lucy Liu?).
