Since the moment the first movie was released, The Hunger Games was a flat-out phenomenon. The story of Katniss Everdeen and her fight against an oppresive government regime has struck a chord with the public consciousness and come this November, her fight will come to an end in cinemas.
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Pt 1 was received with mixed reviews. Fans of the books understood that there was a slow buildup leading to epic confrontation in the final chapter. However, movie audiences were largely confused or simply bored by the exposition heavy narrative. Well, it looks like they have saved all the of the best for last, as all of the districts look to storm the capital in an attempt to assassinate President Snow. This looks like the true culmination of all the previous films, that looks bent on rectifying the issues with the last film, while adding some fun new twists and surprises.
