Movie #1110 ........................."The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2"

Movie #110 "Mockingjay Part 2" was an underwhelming ending to a wonderful series of books/films.    Since this has a bunch of action sequences, fighting, bombing, etc., I would have liked more clarity in those scenes.  Sometimes we were too close, sometimes it was a blur --- I remember saying that about this franchise before, and this director has directed them all except the first one (which I felt was the best).  I felt the three main kids (Lawrence Hutcherson and Hemsworth) should be proud of their efforts in all of these movies, and they brought the franchise to a wonderful close for their characters. The high points were hit, and there were some good special effects and stunts, for sure.  Followed the book well, and the changes from the book were minimal, I felt.  Good, I just wanted to like it more!  I have given all the films 4's and I wanted to go higher for this one, but those action scenes could have been easier to follow.





The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2

2015  I would give this 4 stars out of 5.    It is 2 hours and 17 mins in lengthRated PG-13
As the dystopian franchise reaches its powerful conclusion, Katniss Everdeen -- flanked by her allies from District 13 -- embarks on a quest to liberate the oppressed citizens of Panem by assassinating ruthless President Snow.
