Reviews

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Don Shanahan

While it tries to cut a few corners and condense from the novel, most of this film covers some of the same training, pageantry, and anticipatory posturing that we've seen and sat through once already.

... the second film in the young adult dystopian series... improves upon the original 'The Hunger Games' in almost every way.

It not only adds to the groundwork laid by its predecessor, but it improves on it in nearly every area.

A powerful indictment of entertainment as propaganda, the film considers political, social, and emotional factors that transcend the limitations of a young adult novel and will, like its hero, hopefully, go on to represent something much more significant.

Make no mistake that The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is the best of the sequels and maybe even the best film of the franchise.
