Reviews

yaxleycratler The movie starts off kind if slow and boring with you not really knowing what's going on. It takes its time explaining the situation at hand, and eventually gets down to it about half hour onto the movie, Peeta's is gone but is going psychotic. Katniss is depressed but wants to help, so the good and bad guys start blackmailing each other. In the end they leave you wondering what will happen next which I suppose is the point.

Phoenixphire81 Fantastic film. Brilliant addition to the series even as part 1 of 2. Mockingjay has dispensed with the killing games of the 1st two instalments in favour of war, political power plays and the beginnings of a rebellion. There is also an underlying theme highlighting the power of the media and it's influence in such matters. This one is intense and really packs an emotional punch - aided by some excellent direction and some great acting from the lead players. It is sad to have the knowledge that we have now lost a talent like P.S. Hoffman - his Plutarch is a wonderful exercise in subtlety and intellectual prowess. An interesting match against the power of the capital, with it's abundant troop numbers and heavy firepower. He is a gifted strategist and the one who seems to really know what is going on. Jennifer Lawrence is excellent once again as Katniss. It is clearer now (than in the 1st two films) why she had been picked for this as she really makes you believe the up and downs of this difficult journey, and you are with her for every step. Some of the heart wrenching scenes/speeches (one early one in particular) may have fallen flat in the hands of another actress. I found myself completely engrossed for the entirety of this film, not wanting to take my eyes off the screen for any of it. As I said previously, this is heavy on the emotion and it rarely lets up. Even with little knowledge of the intricacies of the back story and history of Panem, you are wholeheartedly behind the rebellion and you so fervently despise the man behind the suffering. Sutherland hasn't had much screen time in any of these films but credit to him to still make you loathe the Snow character and his relaxed attitude to the genocide of entire cities of people. It's a pity that this film had to be split in 2. It's annoying to have to wait so long for a conclusion. I am deducting a star purely because it feels unfinished. However, considering this is based on fiction for young adults...it still hits hard and will stay with me for a while.

Leofwine_draca THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY - PART 1 suffers from exactly the same problem as HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS: PART 1; it's an adaptation of the first half of a book in which very little happens, the calm before the climax if you like. So instead of plot movement you get an absolute ton of exposition, flashback, and general scenes of Jennifer Lawrence moping around in the most objectionable way ever.This is just as poor as the previous movie in the series, despite the amount of famous faces popping up in minor supporting roles and the wealth of CGI and effects used to bring a futuristic society to life. Instead of getting on and leading the rebellion, Lawrence instead grieves for her lost love, held prisoner by the other side. Whenever you see Josh Hutcherson's eminently punchable face you wonder what all of the fuss is about. It's a film with no beginning, middle, or end, over-obvious throughout, simply treading water before the last in the series. In other words, it's a total bore.

clirby Many have said this before, but I'm afraid I have to repeat the opinion on the account that a surprising many have decided that The Hunger Games is worth of anything more than 1 star in IMDb. The Hunger Games is a unscrupulous photocopy of the masterpiece BATTLE ROYALE 2: REQUIEM, and should be avoided, if not boycotted.Some will claim that The Hunger Games is a 'tribute' or a 'remake' of the BATTLE ROYALE. To them I ask one question: "What kind of filmmakers make remakes of a movie when the original came out two years ago and has been selling DVDs very well internationally?" It seems that this particular brand of Indian cinema has decided that it is quite content making money off of other people idea for free. And though it is impossible for the original filmmakers to sue the filmmakers of The Hunger Games (on the account that US copyright laws does not allow for such suit), The Hunger Games should be remembered as a true stain on the development of American Cinema.Because it has photocopied a great movie, The Hunger Games avoids being an absolute terror of a movie. However, this does not excuse Gary Ross and the section of 'Bollywood' that has involved itself in The Hunger Games's production. Because of the blatant plagiarism, and the The Hunger Games's makers absolutely refusing to apologize and reimburse the original filmmakers, I must say The Hunger Games deserves 1 star, if not 0.
