Besides the annoying squaking teenage girls in front of us (and it really wouldn't have been so bad if it weren't at inappropriate moments)? Nothing. I loved the emotional depth, the action seemed really well done, and the love triangle was better for me in the movie than even in the book. Snow was deliciously can I smack his face yet evil, Cenna was amazing, Effie, was well Effie. Peeta, be still my heart. And the other tributes--they did a great job. Yes. And oh the ending. Wow. Leave ya hanging much? Even though I know what happens it still was like, I need the next one now kinda moment.
I totally want to see it again.
Have you seen it? What did you think?
I loved the movie too :) I thought they brought this movie to life brilliantly. I also wrote a post about the movie if you want to check out my thoughts!
ReplyDeleteChanzie @ Mean Who You Are.
I agree. I totally loved it (aside from the annoying girls in front of me who wouldn't stop talking). My favorite is Caesar Flickerman. I love his laugh! He plays the part so well.
ReplyDeleteOh if only they had private viewings..LOL I am anxious to see this but will wait till it's been out a bit..hehehe
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see it! :D I keep hearing great things, so it makes me even more excited.
ReplyDeleteI loved the movie too! :) Cried almost all the time.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen this but those who've read and knows what happens still got that cliffhanger feel. I was skeptical about JLaw as Katniss but she did a really good job portraying her.
ReplyDeleteI really thought it was the best book to movie adaptation i've ever seen
ReplyDeleteKate @ Ex Libris
Everyone seems to agree that this one is much better than the first. Awesome! I can't wait. :)
ReplyDeleteI will see it on DVD cos the first one was so meh
ReplyDeleteI've not see the movie yet and I don't know if I'll get to chance to see it before it comes on dvd, but I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteJanina @ Synchronized Reading
I've seen it twice now and still feel like I want to see it again. It was just amazing, they did such a good job with it. I love Effie, she's just so... as you say, Effie!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the next one. :)
I will wait until it is not so crazy to see it, but I am so nervous about the ending! I've read the books, but others have said it still leaves ya hangin.

Great movie!! I saw it on Black Friday with my mom :) She said she was glad I dragged her with :) of course I made her watch Hunger Games first :) Love it!!!
ReplyDeleteSaw this with my daughters on Thanksgiving Break and loved it. It had all the action, drama, and yes, lots of emotional depth (even Effie) that one could want. (I shed a few tears, my daughters just looked at me like... really mom?
ReplyDeleteEveryone seems to love it! I was a little mixed with the first one but I'm so impatient to see this one.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was absolutely perfect. So much better than my expectation and WAY better than the first movie. The actors were spot on with their acting and could not have done a better job. I need Mockingjay pt. 1 now!
ReplyDeletemy thoughts exactly! loved it - want to watch the next one now!!
ReplyDeleteI have to read it before I see it. Guess I better hurry before it's gone!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's better on the big screen than on my t.v. or computer!
Oh yes, on the big screen was amazing! I almost cried several times and the kissing was so believable
ReplyDeleteI loved it so much!! I struggled with the second book a bit but this movie streamlined everything and Peeta's character rang do true in this movie!
ReplyDeleteI finally saw this one last night! It was SO good. I know everyone has been saying that it saying it was fantastic, but I couldn't believe just how good it was. Even though I've read the books and I know what's coming, I was still stressed out and sad the whole movie. Those poor kids.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny, because in the books I was totally Team Gale, but by the middle of this movie I was so Team Peeta that Gale just annoyed me. Haha.
I'm glad you like this one.
So glad to hear you loved this too! I totally agree, I want to see it again. And yes, the love triangle was much better done in this installment. Great review!
