THE APPEAL OF THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY PART 1

The Mockingjay part 1 was all about the lead up to the finale. Considering I had watched the first Hunger Games, I did not particularly enjoy this movie.

Although this trilogy has been extremely popular, a lot of people agreed that this particular movie was the least interesting of them all. In my opinion, it feels like Lionsgate is dragging this out, making it more of a saga than an actual trilogy and it is boring the viewers but although most people did not enjoy this movie as much, they did feel almost dedicated meaning they still wanted to watch part 2 when it came out.

My favourite part of the movie is the calming song Katniss sang; The hanging tree:
This scene of the movie begins with Katniss singing the song 'Hanging Tree' whilst sitting with others. As she continues to sing the song, the movie cuts to other scenes as the action builds up gradually. The song continues in the background and although the action scene is going on, it is still very calming and gives a powerful or even a striking feeling towards it.

In conclusion, I did not enjoy this movie because I'm not a fan of this trilogy and had to skip a whole movie meaning I wasn't able to understand everything that was going on and it took a while to get a grasp of everything that had gone on in the previous movie. The movie itself wasn't terrible but I found it almost boring considering the actual 'hunger games' were not happening in this movie which is what I expected (Because I am not a fan and did not know what to expect). I enjoyed certain parts of the movie but did not understand much of the beginning because it did not make any sense to me.
