Pay Tribute to The Hunger Games on DVD and Blu-ray at Tesco Entertainment

LONDON, June 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Life is a battle for survival in this adventure film for the whole family. Whether you managed to catch it in the cinema, or you are looking to see the action on DVD and Blu-ray, you can pre-order The Hunger Games from Tesco Entertainment now, priced at £10.00 and £15.00 respectively.

Taking the world by storm, The Hunger Games smashed US box office records in its first weekend and long lines of eager fans queued to watch this hotly anticipated post-apocalyptic thriller on the big screen. The plot centres around the fictional American city of Capitol where a privileged few rule over the starving masses. Each year a randomly selected boy and girl from every district, known as 'Tributes', are commanded to participate in a fight to the death known as The Hunger Games. The Games are televised and viewing is required for all the workers of Panem. When the 12-year-old sister of Katniss Everdeen is chosen as her district's Tribute in the Games, Katniss volunteers herself instead.

Along with her male counterpart Peeta, Katniss soon discovers that there's more to surviving the Games than being the fastest and the strongest: alliances are quickly formed amongst the more brutal of the Tributes and essential survival tools can only be won by currying favour with the audience. Katniss must use all of her strength and cunning to survive the Games and, in the process, bring hope to Panem's 13 districts.

Based on the sensationally popular novel of the same name, The Hunger Games stars Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Woody Harrelson and Donald Sutherland in roles that serve as the ultimate tribute to the much-loved characters of the book. The Hunger Games is a must-have DVD and Blu-ray purchase for fans of the book series delivering awe-inspiring performances, breath-taking music and a heart-racing plot, which can also be enjoyed by those unfamiliar with the novels.
