I saw both last Friday with my family as a double feature. I enjoyed them both. After having read The Hunger Games book I was pleasantly surprised at how close they stuck to the book, even though they had to leave a lot out. However, after viewing both movies back-to-back, I found John Carter a much more entertaining and exciting movie than The Hunger Games. The Hunger Games just seemed to be filmed in a much slower pace and at times I saw myself getting a little bored. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the film and the book so much more but in comparison of the two movies I thought John Carter was a better movie.
