“Hunger Games : Catching Fire” Lawrence smolders

It's almost as if the role of Katniss Everdeen, the sad-eyed but steely heroine of the best-selling series The Hunger Games, was written expressly for Jennifer Lawrence.

With The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (**1/2 out of four; rated PG-13, opening Thursday in select theaters and Friday nationwide), Lawrence has evolved believably in the role of the increasingly rebellious Katniss. The Oscar-winning actress can nimbly pull off the dazzling fashion-show moments in this futuristic drama, as well as the considerable action exploits and emotional shadings required of her tortured character. Whether on the runway or shooting an arrow, Lawrence is powerfully convincing.
Based on the books by Suzanne Collins, this second in the series follows Katniss after she has returned home from winning the fight-to-the-death competition, along with her partner Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson). (It's a grim game of sheer survival, pitting pairs from each of 12 oppressed districts.) Katniss and Peeta have been handsomely rewarded, their bleak, poverty-stricken lives replaced with physical comforts, courtesy of the totalitarian regime they live under. But there is discontent brewing.
