Worldwide, The Hungers Games generated $694.3 million, followed by Catching Fire’s $865 million and Mockingjay Part 1’s $755.3. The film picks up immediately after the events of Mockingjay Part 1 and follows Katniss and her team of soldiers as they head to the Capitol to take on President Snow face-to-face. Whatever its faults, this remains light years ahead of the Insurgent/Maze Runner film franchises, which have so far failed to steal The Hunger Games’s thunder.
