Good Adaptation.

Rating: 10/10 (16 February 2015)

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay part 1 is simply a great adaptation from the source material written by Suzanne Collins. Being a fan of the books and the movies i went into the theater with high hopes and i was not disappointed. If you are going to this movie just for the action and not the story then my friend you will be very disappointed. This movie has a few scenes of action here and there, but the main focal point of the film is Katniss struggling with Peeta being captured and becoming the Mockingjay. The director did an amazing job at exposing more of the country of Panem, and Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss is one of her best performances yet! In the novel, it is only through Katniss's view, so we only see and hear what she encounters, but in this film we see tons more and really feel the impact that she has on all the districts. Although, Katniss is still very hesitant taking on the role as the Mockingjay in this movie, i really hope she embraces it and kicks ass when Mockingjay part 2 rolls around this November.
