The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 was a good teaser for what to expect in the next part

Rating: 8/10 (23 November 2014)

I have to admit that when I watched the beginning of this one, I had to fight some sleep. But when Peeta realizes how much in danger Katniss is in, that's when I managed to really stay awake! Julianne Moore is a fine addition to the cast this time. There was a great sequence of Katniss trying to get her sister and her cat back in the building before the doors closed for good. And what happens at the end, wow! Let me also say that what I've seen of Philip Seymour Hoffman is fine. I hope his death didn't affect his scenes too much in both this and the second part due next year. It should be a very interesting ride, that's for sure! So on that note, I very much recommend The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1.
