a review from 1 of my friend who just watched
her review is its not as good as john carter
am gonna watch on saturday...gonna review by then

Just watched this but i think im the only one who didnt like it ..

The starting is too long and alot of unimportant scene imo .. The games only started like 40mins to ending

And again started to make the intro with their fire clothes and some other stuff which already been in 1st movie

The 1st movie was ok 2nd is abit too much talk but when the games start finally it look good..

Not full action but at least 1hour+ of it.. It is called hunger GAMES afterall ppl will expect action since the 1st got good action.. I watched the 1st its not as long as this i mean the intro before the games so i thought this must be better since 1st was like intro
And the movie ends in a cliffhanger..

I dont know but i feel the whole audience at the cinema i watch didnt really like it.. There like total silent the only laugh i heard was during the black guy kiss katniss
And in the end of the movie everyone was like rushing to go home no claps at all like batman movie probably because it 2am

Only thing i like is the katniss actress is amazing in her acting and the action scene was actually quite good but too little

Blame it on de greedy biznes ppl,

They wanna stretch de franchise n make more money..
Look at Twilight n Harry Potter - they did tat too.. justified?? - of cos more scrn time means able to delve into character or situations in more detail but of cos slows down de story considerably..

I guess in story telling - having more time to tell a story is a lot better, overall .. but we consumers are a fickle lot - one side would say they didnt follow de book , if they skipped parts and another camp would say its boring, if they did..
Take Lord of the Rings, for instance .. even in Ext Ed versions, they couldnt follow de book, for instance in pt 1 FotR, de character, Tom Bombadil was blotted out altogether - in de book he commanded a few hundred pages if not  mistaken..
In Hobbit - I guess Peter Jackson learnt his lesson n stretched out de adaptation to 3 movie instalments , but of cos, ppl would say tat he just wants to make more money in doing tat..

You cant win..
D

I'm excited for the Mockingjay, but when they decide to split it into two, I think I will skip it this movie

Well the whole story is just one big political drama XD
