What ruins this movie for me is that the majority of it is just nonsense filler.

We are given no depth to the new characters, who are largely silent and mostly absent, and there is no real setup for the finale (part 2). This very much is a cash grab attempt to milk the franchise by making a needless two-part finale when it easily could have been condensed into a single, slightly longer, film. This movie is trash and because it sucks so much, I won't even bother with the sequel.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was bad. I haven't read the books, nor will I ever read them if they have anything in common with the movie other than the title. Don't waste your time or money.

The movie is boring and the logic of the battles and their world is absurd and will bother you. It seems like it was written by a child who was too lazy to even read Sun Tzu. The social commentary is weak at best, and everybody in the movie is so stupid you pretty much want them all to die.

Can we talk about the names? I couldn't concentrate on the bad dialogue because the names were too distracting. Catnis? Katnips? Catnitz? Peta? PETA?! Pita? Pedo? PanAm?!?! The world is named after Pan American airlines? WTF. Gail? Gale? Named after wind?

Most of the movie is Catneets crying because she is frustrated about boys and can't journal about it or something, and then one of her guys gets turned into Gollum in the end. Spoiler. That's pretty much the whole thing. Also, some dudes run up a tree because leaves are, apparently, bulletproof.

There's a cat in the movie. People laughed at the cat. People love cats.

Catnyss shoots down a plane with an arrow. Also, some guy is promised a Trident by a handicapped version of Q from the bond films. They are at war. Trust me, he doesn't want a Trident. He wants a gun. A large gun. Give him a gun, Q.

FYI. You can choose between Rebel Leather, Derelicte (throwback), or Marie Antoinette as your costume choice.

Underground bunkers need underground bunkers in the bunker, apparently.

Don't ever blow up a hydroelectric dam with your planes or bombs. Send unarmed people with some wooden pallets full of bombs instead. They will die, but hey, its worth the footage.

People without tongues can't talk, but they sure can whistle!

How many people total are in this world? About 100K? The districts are the size of a high school.

Anyway. This thing is bad. Go watch Running Man or Battle Royale and have some fun.… Expand

Crying facials for 2 hours is what this movie is about. They are all crying non stop. One of the worst films I watched in last 5 years for sure. So bad in every aspect. Do not bother even to download this ****

It says that we should half to pay a full ticket price, for a boring, stupid, ridiculous, confusing, illogical, melodramatic trailer for the next movie.

I know this is not the first movie to do this, (and most defiantly not the last) but all the other movies to do this were at least entertaining, like Harry potter, and the hobbit (I've haven't seen any of the twilight movies and as far as I'm concerned they don't exist) but this!? This utter sh*t!? I mean what the f*ck!? This is the first movie that has ever personally insulted me for thinking that I am nothing but a giant wallet, and my only purpose is to be exploited. They don't even have to put effort into it, I was depressed leaving the theater, not because the movie was sad but because this is what movies have become. This is the norm. What ever you do don't watch this movie. Don't give them your money.… Expand

This movie sucks!!!!!

It's bad. I'm an 11 year old boy and I found the ending very scary and it didn't make that much sense. You should not waste your money or 2 hours of your time on this terrible movie.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What is it with the Hunger Games? Why is it that people everywhere treat it like its Shakespeare? Its just a teen novel based around an illogical Dystopian society. I haven't read the books, but i have seen the movies, and if the movies are anything like the book then I don't know what to do.

This whole movie is just this: a commercial for Katnis. Plain and simple. It's for this whole, "epic revolution" that is occurring. But it is so boring; so uninteresting it amazes me at how much people like and praise it.

My first gripe is that Katnis, or specifically Jennifer Lawrence has one expression throughout the entire movie,( surprising that she won an Oscar). She never smiles, she rarely cries,(only at the end,really), etc. "But she is experiencing great pain over Peeta!" Well, Peeta baisically did nothing so I don't know why. Also, Peeta? Just because his parents were bakers doesn't mean he should be named after a type of bread!!!!

This whole movie is riddled with plot holes that are so easy to spot it's not even funny.

1: They bomb a whole district to rubble yet leave one house practically unschathed, (which I assume is Katnis's house or something). Either the Capital bombes have a really bad aim,( which is highly unlikely since a) they levelled the rest of the district and b) this society is technologically advanced).

2. They see Katnis land near a hospital but don't bomb the hospital until Katnis has left. They would have saved SO much time and resources if they just killed her there, but then it wouldn't be much of a movie, would it? AND, technically Katnis is the one who killed all those people in the hospital because she only went there for the equivalent of a photoshoot!

3. She takes down two bombers with a bow. "But she was using explosive-tipped tips!". Well, aren't bombers supposed to be flying at super-sonic speeds or something and fly at a slightly higher altitude? And this world looks pretty small, so why don't they just use missiles? I think this scene is only in the movie is to make up for how boring the rest of the movie is and o make Katnis look awesome, since she is seen as sensitive throughout the rest of the movie,( also, when she took out those bombers, she looked bored like," Whatever. I take down bombers down all the time.")

3. Their base is bombed and,(get this), President Snow PUTS A BULLDOZER LOAD OF WHITE ROSES IN THE CRATER OF WHERE A BOMB EXPLODED. Is this supposed to be symbolic, because to me this is kind of stupid. And, how did he know that Katnis would emerge from that one crater? Did he put roses in all the craters? Also, one of my favorite parts is where they say they are "fully operational" even though they have a 40 foot crater in their base. I am no structural engineer but I think a 40 foot crater is going to affect your operations in some shape or form.

4. Bunkers have to have bunkers in them.

5. This girl risks her life saving a cat. But, if she loved that cat so much why did she leave it behind in the first place?

6. Apparently this dam, that is probably bigger than the Hoover Dam, is the only, solitary power source for the Capital. And the most effective way to take out this dam is not to bomb it, risking less human lives. No, you send a mob of people with three crates of explosives running at soldiers gunning them down, making it look like something out of World War Z. And, the security at the dam is ridiculous. there are only a few soldiers with guns. No mines, turrets, nothing. And let me say the "Hanging Man Tree" song is played during this scene. Let me just say; that song had no reason to be in this movie. The producers only put it in here so they could have there own "Frozen".

7. They break in to this building to save Peeta and they knock the guards out with tear gas even though they are wearing helmets.

8. Leaves are bulletproof.

9. The ending is so anticlimactic. So basically, President Snow had an oppurtunity to shoot down the jet with Peeta on board. So I though, "This might get interested. What if he had a bomb in him, taking Katnis out when he is close enough to her." But no, they just drug Peeta on meth and it makes Katnis,*tear, sniff*, "sad".

A final note; I think President Snow likes Katnis. It might be crazy, but just hear this out:

1. He answers her calls,
2. He sends roses,
3. It looks like a love-hate relationship, (explaining why he doesn't just take her out),
4. He is turned on around her.

I gave this movie a low rating because people need to wake up; to see that pop culture is misleading and just because of "PEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" doesn't mean its a good movie. This movie doesn't deserve a 0, but I am compensating for all the biased reviews out there.… Expand

3) the movie jumps from scene to scene w/o rhyme or reason . . . lazy script writing
4) pompous and unbelievable
