I saw the movies first and thought she was really good as Katnis, but I know what you mean about the problem of watching movies after reading the books.
I only had the problem because the description of Katnis in the book and Jennifer Laurence were so totally at odds that it was a distraction at first. I also miss the detail you can get from the books. I have these on DVD for my home collection , so I can watch them whenever I please, without any additional edits to fit the times. Another good one was the Divergent Series, but the same thing happened there with he books first then the movies.

Hunger Games could have really benefited from an extended cut that got a little more into those aspects of the world (that maybe aren't as cinematic).

I think that most of the movies also have to fit a timeframe of “buttache time”. If the movies are too long, it gets really hard to sit through them. The best I can do is about two and a half hours before I have to move around. It doesn’t help when they get really long. I think that is why the directors are making those movies. I remember that most movies used to be about 100 minutes and still be great.
