There Needs to Be a Better Transition from the Earlier Films

Rating: 6/10 (5 July 2015)

I did see the previous movies and will be there to find out how it all plays out. Is it fair to criticize a film when one's memories of those first two films are a little fuzzy. I guess I am empathetic because the totalitarian government is so awful that I'm going to pull for these guys. Kateniss is the hero, but I'm not sure how she connects to the evils that are being perpetrated. Donald Sutherland's character is utterly rotten. But what is it he wants. I mean, is he getting any enjoyment out of his power other than to have it. I know history is dotted with megalomaniacs like this, but what will the world be. This part is filled with self- doubt and uncertainty. I fear that the power shift is like most (like the French Revolution) when evil trumps evil and we end up with evil. I've not read the books so I'm at a loss. There is so much unexplained stuff going on here that I hope gets explained in the future.
