Initial thoughts -
1) Jen could have been a silent movie queen. Yet again she gets me choked up without saying a word. I think having read the books is a real bonus with these movies; you get to 'see' Katniss' thoughts and feelings that we read on the page. 2) I think the dam scene worked really well, seeing what the district was willing to sacrifice for the cause But how the hell were the people of the Capitol watching the broadcasts during a blackout? 3) District 8 was awesome. 4) How could they leave out Finnick and his underwear? 5) Hey Johanna. 6) Peeta's attack was brutal, but so well done. What else... I guess Effie had her moments, I love how they took certain quotes word for wiped, especially with Haymitch and the revolution. also the way they seemed to split up the quote at the start between Katniss and Gale. |

On another note, I can't get The Hanging Tree out of my head. Oh and I'm happy how they opened the movie. |

Girls on Film: The Hunger Games: Mockingjay isn't an action movie. It's a war movie.

I love that the series takes on the bread and circuses of the games and exposes what truly occurs in society and in both political systems. At this point Katniss is just a pawn in a much larger game. Other then a few in MJ part 1, no one cares what mental state she's in, she's just a means to an end. I can't wait part 2 to see how they handle her evolution in the war and aftermath. |

Thanks for that review. It's good to hear from an individual who has had personal experience with PTSD to say that Jennifer nailed it.
I saw it again this morning. So glad I did, there were things that I missed on first screening. Particularly really listening to Coins speech at the end. It's a very good movie. |
