The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2: what we thought

It’s a bold claim to say that this final Hunger Games is the most brutal of the four films considering it’s a series about kids being thrown into an arena and forced to kill one another for sport.

Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth once again brought their A games to the screen. Mockingjay-Part 1 earned $121.9 million domestically. The director further said that if at all a prequel is planned; Katniss wouldn’t be a part of it.

As reported by Comingsoon.Net, the final installment of “The Hunger Games” franchise was disappointment, especially in comparison to the previous movies of the franchise. Katniss has been a valuable tool for the rebellion as the flawless model of strength and determination, but now that the fighting and killing is going to increase on a monumental level Coin has her ordered to stay out of the hot zones and basically sit the invasion out. Well, I’m saying it, “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2” is the most brutal film of the series.

The adaptations of Suzanne Collins’ best-selling young adult novels end the two-week reign of James Bond and “Spectre” atop the domestic box office and headed for the year’s fifth-best debut. This marks the lowest opening day in the “Hunger Games” franchise. Other cast members include Elizabeth Banks, Woody Harrelson and Julianne Moore. “And partly the brilliance of that genius child, Jennifer, to get it done, but it has to, otherwise we’re lost”.

Currently, “The Hunger Games” franchise is ranked No. 20 on the all-time global grosses list with $2.3 billion.

But the US Oscar winner’s pose on promotional posters for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 with bow and arrow will not be seen by residents of two Israeli cities. “I just think her performance is really good and it sums up what the movie’s about it. I really enjoy that”.

Mockingjay focuses on Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence, as she joins forces to bring down the Capitol, which started the tradition of hosting the Hunger Games. Director Francis Lawrence, may have benefited by staying with characters a beat longer during key moments, helping fix some of the emotional impact that doesn’t always hit as well as it did in the first film.
