    The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1

    ★★★½

    Everything that’s good about the first two, the cast and dramatic tone and vibe of oppression, is all still here. This one is just paced a little worse and fundamentally doesn’t really have much to do. All this movie needs to do is build up stakes and tension for the part 2 revolution finale, but it’s pretty hard to keep that fully engaging for 2 hours.

    Better than the first, levels up the stakes, acting, drama, visual effects, and writing. Lot of character interactions are left out that I would have genuinely loved to see, and I think they were shot or atleast thought of, but removed for time. But I totally would have watched a longer movie so, I guess that wraps around to being a compliment eventually

    Very well paced and maintains a believable and authentic tone of repression and desperation. Lots of interesting criticism of our societies sensationalism and numbness to the horrors of the world.

    Genuinely shocking twists and turns 

    Funny characters and writing but not the most substantive and  didn’t really feel connected to or rooting for anybody
