Parents advised to read before viewing film as some scene may contain scenes unsuitable for younger viewers.
Sex & Nudity: Reference to a supposed miscarriage.
A man and a women briefly kiss.
Violence & Gore: Numerous bombings of innocent citizens.
People are shown in pain, post bombings and war. Some moderately graphic images.
Buildings are seen collapsing while civilians are still inside.
A young man and woman shoot at two bomber aircrafts, sending them exploding to the ground.
Soldiers shoot at rebels and kill. There are usually no graphic injuries or blood.
Skeletons of adults and children are frequently shown in the aftermath of a mass bombing.
A hospital is blown up, killing everyone inside it.
Rebels are publicly executed by the government. They are shot in the head, point-blank, while their faces are covered. It is in a sort of montage sequence, some shootings are shown, but with no blood, and some are slightly blocked out. This is still a disturbing scene even without blood due to the contorting bodies of the shot rebels.
In a quite disturbing scene, a young man brutally attacks a young woman, smashing her against glass and throwing her on the floor. He begins to choke her, she gasps for air and her eyes become large and bloodshot.
Rebels plant explosives in a dam, completely destroying it. To achieve this, the rebels had to run into the bullets of soldiers. We see many people being shot, trampled on and falling down.
Profanity: Very mild language.
Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking: Reference to a man's alcoholism.
Frightening/Intense Scenes: Despite there are no "Games" in this instalment (which means no kids killing kids whatsoever), it is still the darkest, most adult and most intense Hunger Games movie, for now.
A character has emotional break-downs throughout the film.
The mass bombings of citizens and executions may be disturbing to some viewers.
The death count is very high for this film.
Two characters appear emaciated.
The ending is very disturbing, intense and emotional.
Story: With the Games now destroyed and in pieces, Katniss Everdeen, along with Gale, Finnick and Beetee, now end up in the so thought "destroyed" District 13. Under the leadership of President Coin and the advice of her friends, Katniss becomes the "Mockingjay" and the symbol of rebellion for the people.
Likes : For Anticipated movie like this Hunger games mocking -jay dose have it moments of emotional content but sadly doesn't deliver what the second film delivered with a balance of action & suspense to balance the film out this is sadly a disappointment.
The acting is brilliant & well choreographed but let down on it predicable & slow pace,in all fairness to he actor they did a great job when it cam to the emotional scene show the struggle & heart break of war but sadly i cant praise this film as being a great film, it got way to many flaws this just wasn't the film i was expecting it to be.
Dislikes : The first film didn't really appeal to me but it start off great, then the sequel came out with a bang with action & emotional scene that got me interested in the story as it got interesting, but then we get this a slow pace no action all emotional set up movie to a final that is disappointing to say at least.
Here is where this is a mistake, if your going to do a set up movie do it with the first film & not the third film to a final, because this film series went from a good start to flat out boring film disappointment i started to like this film until now, personally splitting this film in 2 parts may of been a bad idea if this is the way it had to be ended because the way this ended it leave you thinking is that it? which is a shame because te acting is brilliant only to be let down by the lack of pace it felt lazy & predictable just felt like they feel all the good scene for the mocking jay part 2 movie this is what let this film down what you see in the trailer is the best part of the film.
Overall : Slow pace, to much emotional scene not enough action to even out the film.
Rating: 3.5 out of 5 for entertainment / 6.1 out of 10 for story writing.
