Nice movie but there is nothing we don't know there!

Rating: 6/10 (3 December 2013)

The sequel fails to convince us for it's true goals.The cast is strong (Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks and Lenny Kravitz are all fabulous) but the whole project fails because of the scenario. The second part "Catching Fire" is obviously a try to make it look like the "V for Vendetta" but the result is not the same. The satirical and futuristic views of the movie combined with moments of melodrama cannot persuade us by using clichÃ©s for the serious issues is dealing with,like inequality,new world order,totalitarian regimes, government control etc. Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson)will come back to the arena after an unfair decision of the games committee. Even the performances are good the scenario is predictable from the first moment. What is not predictable is the heartbreaking emotional conflict Katniss experiences standing between her lover and Peeta. I was expecting much more from the second part because it has been based on a brilliant idea. Lets hope the third part will be better.
