Nothing Deep, But Good Entertainment

Rating: 7/10 (26 July 2015)

Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) is in District 13 after she shatters the games forever. Under the leadership of President Coin (Julianne Moore) and the advice of her trusted friends, Katniss spreads her wings as she fights to save Peeta and a nation moved by her courage.
Some have said this movie is boring and nothing really happens. I can see that. It has relatively little story, and gets a bit repetitive. Others are banging the drum that this is still a ripoff of "Battle Royale", and those folks are still totally correct. I managed to enjoy it despite these concerns.
My only issue is that I wish there had been more Jena Malone and less Julianne Moore. Don't get me wrong. Moore is a great actress. But she was horribly miscast as President Coin, and it sort of throws the scenes she is in out of balance.
