A shame, because if they had taken the good bits from both Mockingjay movies and combined them into one (slightly longer) film, it might have been the best of the series and a fitting finalé for Katniss and co. At age 17, she was the victor of the 62nd Hunger Games and became known for ripping out. She also is a member of the 75th games’ career pack. I just sat there waiting for the whole thing to end so I could move on to something else. Enobaria is the female tribute from District 2. I watched purely for the sake of completion, but at no point did I feel involved in the story or engaged with the characters. And despite several decent action scenes (including booby-trap pods, a tidal wave of tar, and a mutt attack) that's precisely what has happened: at a whopping 137 minutes, this last film in the series feels like the proverbial dead horse has been well and truly flogged. When they split Mockingjay into 2 parts, presumably for no other reason than financial gain, there was always the concern that the story would be far too drawn out (as with The Hobbit). ‘Catching Fire,’ part two of The Hunger Games film series, leaves the series in a much stronger position than the first film, as it heads into the third and fourth films. Reluctant symbol of the revolution, Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) leads a small group of freedom fighters into Panem to try and assassinate the wicked President Snow (Donald Sutherland).
