Review of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 (2014) by Peteralexander — 09 Jun 2015
The attempt to split the final act into two films is a mistake often seen nowadays and it ends in the same result every time. Whilst on the most part the Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 is an engaging movie, it is a distinct drop in quality in comparison to the two previous films.
The film is far too slow paced and fails to capture the audience from start to finish. Despite this, there are redeeming qualities that make this film enjoyable to watch. The exploration of propaganda and the harsh realities of war are at some points demonstrated to perfection.
This is not enough to justify the final act being split into two films however.
