katikatWent to see Mockingjay with the twins today. I haven't read the books, so I can't say if they split up the 3rd one well or not, but there were many character moments and personal beats, many more so than in the previous films, at least IMO. On the other hand, because of that the movie felt rather slow. If you expect an edge-of-the-seat action movie, you'll be disappointed.
My favorite bits:
* Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson. They were amazing in it. Both of them. They carried the film perfectly.
* That they showed that both sides don't shy away from using and manipulating people.
* Katniss in general but especially her love for Peeta. You see, to me, Katniss has always felt really cold and reserved, and that's why her unconditional devotion to Peeta felt all the more heartbreaking.
I would give this movie 7/10. I think I need to see it again to really appreciate all the character stuff.
