Fans of popular film series these days tend to get the
shaft. The last book is always adapted into two films so that the studio can
milk as much money out of the consumer as possibly. And we’re not talking Lord
of the Rings sized books here: Mockingjay is 400 pages. It’s not War and Peace.
Therefore, it becomes difficult to judge the Mockingjay films – both parts –
without acknowledging that they are essential one unnecessarily long film that
is cut in half. Luckily, Part 2 fares much better than Part 1. Unfortunately
skipping Part 1 is also detrimental to getting the most enjoyment out of Part
2. So is “Mockingjay – Part 2” any good or what? The answer is yes, as long as
you don’t compare it to series high-point “Catching Fire.”
The obviously highlight of the entire Hunger Games film
series are the hunger games themselves. The immoral concept that children and
teens are forced to battle each other to the death in a purposely controlled
and dangerous environment for the entertainment of a disgustingly corrupt and malicious
government and its richest people makes for fascinating discussion-worthy cinematic
entertainment. Unfortunately, the hunger games went out the window at the end
of the second film as the rebellion started in full swing. You get the sense
that the rebellion is what author Suzanne Collins was getting at all along –
this is a series that is about so much more than children being forced to kill
each other. It’s also thankfully about much more than a girl having to choose
between two guys, though it’s about that too. The hunger games themselves is
what I personally find so fascinating about this series; the rebellion is the
next logical step, yet far from the story’s most interesting ideas.
Part 2 picks up literally right where the last film left off
with Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) locked up and completely brainwashed. Katniss
(Jennifer Lawrence, looking somewhat bored as if she could play the role in her
sleep by now) and her fellow rebellious members of District 13 are ready to
finally make their move to the capital to dethrone the evil President Snow
(Donald Sutherland). We finally get to see two of my favorite characters get
the screen time they deserve including Johanna (Jena Malone) freshly rescued
from the Capital and Finnick (Sam Claflin) who gets married before setting out
for battle. Effie and Haymitch around too but seem underutilized.
This film feels much like a war film with a small group of
soldiers making their way across the booby-trapped rubble of the Capital. These
scenes, reminiscent of the traps set by the hunger games’ sadistic gamemakers,
are the definitely highlight of the film and feature some pretty successful
sequences including an Aliens-like venture into the dark, pipe-riddled sewers
of the Capital. Director Francis Lawrence doesn’t deviate much from the style
he inherited yet made his own when he took the reins on the second film. And the
film’s screenplay is thankfully less talky and way more action heavy than Part
1.
