So while visiting my Dad this weekend we decided to take a trip to the cinema, just to spice up your Saturday night. Knowing that I love the Hunger Games and it had just come out, going to see the latest installment really was a no brainer!
For those of my readers who haven't heard of this movie series, it originally started out as a trilology of books by author Suzanne Collins! Now the books were obviously a hit as the film industry decided that it needed to be made into a film .
The books are based on a country known as Panem, which consists of the Capitol and the 12 (previously 13) districts. Where due to a rebellion the districts are forced to take part in the Hunger Games. A game were one boy and one girl from every district compete in a kill or be killed type games. Twenty four go into the games but only one will come out. Any boy or girl aged 12-18 could be picked at random to compete. The story focuses on Katiness Everdeen a 16 year old girl, who's is just trying to take care of her mum and little sister.
Anyway on to the Mockingjay Part 1, which sees the return of stars Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutchinson. As well as the arrival of Julianne Moore and Evan Ross. All these actors played their roles superb within this installment. The audience even got to see a part of Katness that hasn't been displayed yet. Even the late Phillip Seymour Hoffman played his role well.
Now one thing you guys should know is that I love this series the books captivated me and so far the movies haven't let me down. Saying that I must admit, if I'm honest, that this installment of the third book did lack some action. Now anyone who has read the books will know that the first half of the last book does not contain many action scenes. I will admit that there were a couple small action scenes that did satisfy that action bug inside me.
I even asked my Dad what he thought and he said that he did like it and it was lacking in action. However he also said that it's a must see for anyone who is following the Hunger games movie series. I will admit that I agree whole heartedly.
Let me know what you thought of the movie, if you have seen it or if you plan to see it.
