Lawrence is more determined than ever to fight for the roles she wants and plans to make sure she gets the best deal possible. They were integral players in Katniss’s journey.

The second part of this movie, “Hunger games: Catching Fire” was released in 2013.
Without a doubt, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 is the best movie in the franchise. Her story is finished. The small details are what counts here. But if I were to guess what these books were like based on their theatrical counterparts, I’d say much of the good stuff was front-loaded. Wisps of the characters’ personalities are taken and expanded all throughout the movie and not just on the script but also in their actions as well as in the scenes and the sets.
And Lawrence acknowledges, refreshingly for a blockbuster director, the downside of prequels and origin stories.
If you read other reviews of this film, they will probably tell you the film is too dark. Everything about this movie is predictable, but it’s gunning for the teenagers, and they’ll eat all this up. Time moves and jumps without warning. This movie will become the biggest hit of 2015.
Even less time is spent with the supporting characters who enriched the first two films, who seemingly show up for a cameo in their own franchise.
For being a series that was tenser, smarter and focused more on the humanity of its characters than its YA brothers and sisters, it’s an odd note to end the series. The audience I saw the film with did not applaud and marched silently out of theater.
One, this movie actually enhances the experience of Part 1.
Mockingjay Part Two isn’t awful, it’s average and that’s not the way to end a fantastic series. Get the how to on the look with our video tutorial – click to watch! It is unbelievable what these parts do to complement each other.
Katniss Everdeen is a badass. The summaries are short and sweet and should have you able to keep up when someone asks you are you team Gale or team Peeta. He directed the last three films in the franchise and thinks there’s really only one way you could go with another movie: Backward. She’s convinced the timing was right and he cast her in “Silver Linings Playbook” before all the hoopla that came when the “The Hunger Games” launched.
This hasn’t been lost on Jennifer Lawrence, who found it hard to sleep hopping around from country to country.

So, when her Hunger Games costar Liam Hemsworth made an appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers earlier this week, he couldn’t help but laugh (and try to explain) when Seth asked him if our girl has been falling on goal. That’s fair, but you’re getting my opinion anyway.
