Wick's Review
Summary - Very Good 3.5 click to collapse contents
I’m loyal to Katniss Everdeen, so had to see the end of her story. Love can be painful and this movie was. Freighted with profound mournfulness, it’s simply too much and too long. Alas, The Hunger Games is ultimately high-toned YA, notwithstanding its often brilliant political grandstanding. Thus, Mockingjay – Part 2 feels like an interminable 2¼ hours, even as it’s well wrought, well earned and well performed.
Shoulda heeded Briansez’s advice and not wasted a movie-going night on it, but JLaw’s Katniss had a hold on me and messed up my thinking. Oh well, it’s all over now Miss Mockingjay.
