Everything about it is a cliche, it was torture to sit through. Jennifer Lawrence has 3 expressions and mugs for the camera continuously, there are 4 camera shots, there is very little action... it is mostly people standing around talking, and talking, and talking. I haven't even mentioned the dialogue which anyone reading this review could write. Even before they finished their lines I was finishing it for them. Do not waste your money. As good as Jennifer Lawrence was in Winter's Bone, she is that bad in this movie. She is not the next Meryl Streep, she is the next Nicole Kidman. I can not figure out how the professional reviews gave it such high marks, I feel they must getting some kind of benefit on the side. If you haven't seen many movies in your life this might be OK if you are in your teens, but I would recommend you pick out another movie you can go to in the cineplex because in the first 10 minutes you will know what I'm talking about, it doesn't get better, it just continues to repeat the same scenes, over and over again in a different place with the same anguish.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is very likely the worst movie I've ever sat through. It is a example of the dangers of padding.

Disclaimer: I liked the first and second movies.

Hunger Games, with a good script writer and a disciplined director, could have been done in one movie. With that, I think this could have done well as a trilogy as well. There was no reason for Mockingjay to be split into two movies.

I'll quickly explain why this movie was so bad:
* It skipped the climax -- The scene of the confrontation at Snow's residence was glossed over because Katniss was knocked out (about the 4th time in this movie alone)
* Nothing happened -- They used exposition to explain the plot in between short boring action sequences.
* It was stupid -- Many of the plot elements were used to shamelessly jerk the audience around. The performances were so rigid and simple (even Lawrence's high note performance of the show) presumably to placate the lack of intellect of fans of the movies and Suzanne Collin's books.

How the hell did someone mention the cinematography in this movie as being excellent? It was hard to watch it was so comically bad.

Overall, I found myself laughing at many of the 'serious' scenes (like dropping bombs attached to little parachutes at the final battle sequence, really?).… Expand

An extremely bloated runtime filled with 3-year-old dialogue and extremely predictable outcomes. The worst of the series, which is saying a lot since the entire series was enormously bad.

I have never, ever fallen asleep in a movie theater until I saw this movie. I remember that the characters were extremely serious, and that it seemed to be moving towards a huger games scenario, and I remember being really bored. The next thing I remember is friends shaking me awake for the credits. Apparently, I snored through most of it. I'm giving the movie 2 stars, because the first half hour could be a cure for my insomnia.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's been a decent franchise until this train wreck; Seems as though someone gave them a plot checklist and it goes like this: zombie zero dark chase, check. end the world's longest running love triangle, check. Drench the square in oil, send in a rocket, but don't have the oil catch on fire, check. Set up complicated tech gadget that serves no purpose for the plot, check. Cry until you spittle, check. Embarrassing end to an otherwise fun series. Check your brain at the door.… Expand

As every minute of the film goes on, the film gets even sillier. I tried my hardest not to laugh at it's stupidity, but I couldn't even get through 15 minutes without laughing. The film was the worst way to end this trilogy.

I haven't read the books but found the first two movies to be okay, the 3rd to be boring, this 4th one to be the worst

Perhaps if you've read the books, this is better, but if you haven't, I'd avoid

I am surprised so many people are tricking themselves into thinking this was a good film, but I guess the rabid fandom and expectation lead to a lot of folks being unable to admit to themselves that they just watched one of the worst filmsI am surprised so many people are tricking themselves into thinking this was a good film, but I guess the rabid fandom and expectation lead to a lot of folks being unable to admit to themselves that they just watched one of the worst films ever.

This was the most commercialized and soulless piece of junk I have seen in a long time. Everyone just goes through the motions to cash their paycheck. Lawrence should be disqualified from all future acting awards after this joke of a performance. The special effects are cheesy and fake-looking. Every scene is poorly lit and staged. There is simply no there there. And at two hours and seventeen minutes it is tediously over-stuffed. Surprising, considering it seemed like absolutely nothing happened at all. By the time the tenth or so ending/epilogue was playing out I wanted to get out of the theater so badly it hurt.… Expand

Wow, where to begin with this piece of **** The suits at Lionsgate must have been laughing their asses of seeing people pay for this travesty...

This movie is so lazy it doesn't even take itself serious. The script is a loop of the followingWow, where to begin with this piece of **** The suits at Lionsgate must have been laughing their asses of seeing people pay for this travesty...

This movie is so lazy it doesn't even take itself serious. The script is a loop of the following sequence: 1. Look with no expression at stuff 2. Talk to each other so quietly that it's almost impossible to hear. Also talk about something that doesn't matter. 3. walk, move run. 4. Someone dies because they are doing dumb ass things. 5. Take cover somewhere and repeat the loop from 1. It's like they had an unpaid intern write this ****!

The characters have NO chemistry, not just a little, just NONE! Characters are introduced only to be killed one by one, and all seem to be handpicked from either Mute School or 'Throw yourself at the Danger' school. Absolutely stupid.

The hidden plot is actually good, which is that the ones leading the rebellion are already dividing the power after Snow is dead. Which is the everlasting loop of people with power. If only the movie was about that instead of Katniss 'I look like i'm lost' Everpoo.

The score: **** is this made by like three guys with one microphone in an alley?
Decors: So fake looking i could have shot it better in my garden.
Outfits and make-up: Let's have soldiers walk around in a warzone without helmets... that says it all really.

The story itself: If it wasn't shot like a gathering of mental patients it could have worked. But it didn't. This is a problem throughout these movies anyway.

Any positives: Well... Jennifer Lawrence is looking better and better each year now. Because of the slow plot it doesn't dissolve into chaos. The sewer creatures looked pretty darn cool, and as said before the story of power in the background is actually interesting. It makes these dull characters look like pawns in a bigger game of chess.

But this is a terrible movie all together. It's 2 hours of my life i will never get back. I give this movie a 3/10.… Expand

Previsível e preguiçoso.

O plot é demasiadamente previsível. A subversão da ordem, o atentado para conseguir o poder, a morte da presidente; todos esses elementos poderiam ser mais explorados, mas aqui é tudo tão jogado de maneira descuidadaPrevisível e preguiçoso.

O plot é demasiadamente previsível. A subversão da ordem, o atentado para conseguir o poder, a morte da presidente; todos esses elementos poderiam ser mais explorados, mas aqui é tudo tão jogado de maneira descuidada que você nunca é pego de surpresa. No final de contas, nenhum personagem se salva. Suas atitudes são incompreensíveis em suma maioria, e há uma sensação de que o roteiro força acontecimentos para que a historia vá em frente, quando na realidade eles deveriam ser provocados pelas consequências das atitudes dos personagens. O tanto de conveniência e furos aqui é colossal. As cenas de ação parecem mais sem alma do que nunca, como se uma musica de fundo bastasse para que nosso coração acelerasse como o dos personagens.

Enfim, nada mais do que uma decepção.

When the main character in this movie looks bored, well, it says it all. Lots of people sitting around with long faces is how I sum up this up. Painfully slow and disappointing.
