This sounds like a rip-off of Logan's Run.
My son and I just watched Hunger Games last night at the theater, and discussed it afterwards.
On the whole I have to agree on the 7 of 10 rating you give. I was surprised and disappointed at the PG13 rating; seems to me the point of the thing was to emphasize the horror of the Games and how the society had grown accustomed and hardened to it, and the antiseptic cut-away death scenes totally blew that aspect of it. The blurred and shaky-cam sequences made it hard to tell what was going on during some combat sequences which was a bit of a downer also.
Even so, it was good. Pretty good acting, scenery, dialog, and so forth. The ending was slightly abrupt but it was already a long movie I can see why.
Enjoyed it quite a lot overall, despite the above-mentioned flaws.
The Avengers (8.5/10)- Fantastic.
