a touching movie, must watch

Rating: 10/10 (20 November 2014)

guys, I am a fan of the hunger games trilogy, I love catching fire and Jennifer Lawrence. I am so sad that this movie is not critically accepted as much as catching fire and even hunger games (at least this is from what I had observe. I don't understand it though, because this one is at least on the same level as catching fire for me. well, maybe it doesn't have as many actions scenes as its predecessors (although hunger games action scenes are doubtful really) but it is more emotionally touching and the action scenes, brief as they are, are very well handled. the dramatic scenes are also great, especially the few scenes where people of the district start to fight against the peacekeepers while sacrificing their own lives. it is so touching. God, it feels like I can't say enough 'touching' in here. and my favorite scene is one of them, the dam scene! :-) maybe the pacing is a little on the slow side but it's the consequence of making a film from a considerably weak and quiet short source material intro two separate movies so that the producers can gain more profit. I didn't complaint though, I can live with watching Jlaw's brooding face for a few minutes. Honestly, from one movie to the next Katniss's face is getting more and more easy to look at, probably the lack of make up.
Jennifer Lawrence, as always, succeeds to deliver a powerful yet touching performance. good job, Jlaw. and that last scene she has with peeta is very heartbreaking. I mean, just see her eyes! Peeta's transformation is very sad too. their reunion is handled very well. Julian Moore's character, president coin is too likable to me. she's not in the book and remembering her fate, that is a downside for me.
overall it's a touching movie, must watch
