Movie Review - Catching Fire

This movie was pretty awesome and did a great job of bringing the book to life.  Like any book to movie though some details were left out but what they did show was great and very intense. I loved all the victors that you meet in the movie. Johanna Mason and Mags especially were well done. The humor along with the seriousness was also kept in tact well. My only issue was the last time you see Cinna, I knew the scene was going to happen but why oh why did they have to make it so brutal... Seeing this movie in a full theater was a lot of fun and you could tell that everyone was loving the movie especially the climatic scene with Katniss at the end, there was a lot of clapping. The ending was faithful to the book and it was also interesting what the movie did showing the mockingjay pin.

  1. Good review Becky. The first still seems a little bit better in my mind, but nonetheless, the story continues to move and get more tense.

    1. Thanks, yes I like how it's getting more tense too. I think I liked this one more because you get to see more of Peeta. I am worried that they're splitting the third book into three movies.
