Mockingjay Part 2



Of all the movies, this one was probably the darkest and most emotional. It was very well done, all the actors delivered and it did a good job of following the storyline.  Did you see it and if so, did you like it?

No, I haven't seen it, but perhaps I will get round to it one of these days! Hugs, Valerie

I haven't seen it, but the books certainly veered to the dark side after the first.

DEZMOND said...

I hate it when they do teen movies dark! And books too! It will shape tons of new generations that will see death and killings as something glamorous. The violence in books is steadily becoming a fetish for young readers as well thanks to US publishers :(

Sorry, didn't like the first one.
And books and movies are only a reflection of the darkness happening in real life.

CJ Kennedy said...

Didn't see it. Saw the first, two. Thought they were ok.

I saw Part 1...I remember reading the book and I couldn't remember enough material left at the end of the book to make a whole movie out of it. I remember what happened, but I kept thinking, "Couldn't they have crammed it into one movie?" But Harry Potter started that trend, I guess--stretch it out to maximize your box office earnings!

Pat Hatt said...

Never saw a one. Hear they are going to cash in and make prequels now though

Leandra Wallace said...

I've seen them all in theaters except for this one. Knowing that they end is going to be sad, I'm avoiding it. ;) We'll grab it on Redbox whenever it finally comes out.

I enjoyed all the movies, even the last one. Yeah, it's darker--it's basically a war movie--but it was still good. Almost makes me want to re-read the books. And if I had time (and a smaller TBR pile), I might have done it! :)

Not yet, but I can't wait to see.

Birgit said...

oh, oh...I have not seen any-insert sheepish smile. For some reason, these films never enticed me. I think I am not one for the dark style-people in a game to kill another but one becomes a leader to change all this. How did you like the ending of this film-all you thought or could they have done a lot more?

Christine said...

I saw it. I had only seen the first one before that, so didn't follow everything but it was good, lots of action.

Sandra Cox said...

Hi Val, If you do let us know whether or not you like it.
Hugs back.

Sandra Cox said...

They sure did. Especially the last one.

Sandra Cox said...

Good point, Dez.
I'm afraid we don't limit violence to books either.

Sandra Cox said...

It would get pretty boring if we all liked the same things:)

Sandra Cox said...

Hey CJ, I liked your solar lights.

Sandra Cox said...

That's what the hh was saying:)
I think sales on this one fell off. I think both Mockinjay and Twilight should have limited it to 3.

Sandra Cox said...

Seriously? Huh. I didn't know that.

Sandra Cox said...

Sounds like a plan. We do a lot of Redbox:)

Sandra Cox said...

Those TBR's just keep growing:) How are you, Stacy?

Sandra Cox said...

Hi Sharon, Let us know if you like it:)

Stacy McKitrick said...

I'm doing fine! Thanks for stopping by my blog. :)

Sandra Cox said...

You zeroed in, Birgit. The ending felt a little flat. But overall it was well done.

Sandra Cox said...

There sure was. I'm on my way over to your place.

I haven't seen it but don't go to the cinema. I do see films on the TV though, good post.

I saw it awhile back, now I'm excited for The Force Awakens
