Hungry for The Hunger Games? Inside Pulse is here to fill your appetite.

The Hunger Games officially opens on Friday and in preparation for what is anticipated to be the highest-grossing film of the 2012 calendar year, Inside Pulse is going all out to give you the best coverage around.

We start with an advance review of Battle Royale: The Complete Collection, the controversial Japanese satire about a class of Grade 9 kids being dropped off on an island and told that they must kill each other with only the victor being allowed to leave the island. Many have suggested that it was the true inspiration behind The Hunger Games, and tomorrow is the first time the movie is being released in North America. How similar is it to Suzanne Collins’ trilogy? That’s for you to decide.

In addition, we will have advance review of The Hunger Games available tomorrow.
