Really poor fare from Sky this. Watched 3 episodes and just couldn't take it anymore. Every episode is a taciturn Muslim male and a chatty English male, running around with backpacks, carrying enough uranium to blow up half of London. Other characters come and go but never build into anything. The plot is so far fetched, that it's laughable. I so wanted to like this but it's bloody awful.

I haven't seen any of the other Hunger Games movies and after watching this dull, turgid affair I never will. Badly acted, awful script, dull, lifeless characters (except the Dr, who owned every scene she appeared in). The whole thing seemed rushed though the movie dragged, I must have checked my watch half a dozen times. At the end, I wished they had all died, just to prevent a sequel ever being produced. It seemed like not a single actor (Dr aside) wanted to be there and was just going through the motions.
