Is The Hunger Games the American version of The Great Escape?

The Hunger Games has been dubbed as a copy of The Great Escape, but in fact there are great differences between them. Although they are all set as "a group of people are put in a closed space to fight", the two films focus on different angles. The Great Escape focuses on blood and violence visually, and the theme focuses on "human torture"; The Hunger Games avoids blood and violence visually, and emphasizes "Love Actually" on the theme. Electronic Knight: I don't think The Hunger Games is a copy of The Great Escape. There is still a big difference between the two. The starting point and thinking of the two films are different. The Great Escape is similar to an experiment-if people are put in extreme situations, what will they choose? This setting is a bit like Cube, and even films like Skin Inn will be closer to The Great Escape, but The Hunger Games doesn't feel like it. Because The Hunger Games didn't ask questions, didn't ask the question "Who will survive", and didn't challenge the audience's curiosity in this respect. When you watch The Great Escape, you won't think of the winner in the end. The ending is surprising, but the Hunger Games knows who is the last to live at the first glance, so you don't have to think hard about the ending. From the characteristics of The Hunger Games, firstly, The Hunger Games contains the basic logic of youth films-true love never dies, and true love conquers everything. Although it is still open to question whether there is true love between Katniss and Pita in the film. The boy with few scenes in the film should become a participant in a love triangle in the future.
