At the beginning of the film, Katniss was strangled by Pita in the last movie. In order to retaliate against Kaitnis, Katniss chose to do everything to fight Snow to the end, so the 451 star team, which was named after shooting the promo, fell into the town of Kaitnis. Encountered various traps on the way, and the team members died one after another. This episode is a plot that I felt very sad when I was reading a novel. Finnick’s death has always impressed me. The movie shows the tragedy of Finnick’s death to save Katniss, and adds a touch of horror and tension to the pursuit. , Intensify the visual impact that cannot be felt in the text. Afterwards, Katniss witnessed the death of his sister in the process of going to Snow Palace, and then gradually realized the truth of the matter-the real purpose of the revolution was to seize the position of the ruler, not to change the ruled. world. Therefore, at the scene of Snow's execution, Katniss chose to kill Cohen instead of Snow. Snow was overwhelmed by the angry crowd with a wild laugh, completing the most ironic scene of the film.
Of course, Katniss finally gained happiness, but her heart will never be calm. She will fight repeatedly in the disappeared Hunger Games until she died. The movie is warmer here, without the cruelty of reality.
Some people think that the filming of this film is very boring. The actors are always talking and there are too few action scenes. But the real purpose of "The Hunger Games" has never been stimulating fights, but how to overthrow this false utopian world. Joanna's actor Jena Malone said: "The original novel has never evaded its political nature." The same is true for the movie. It seems that there is no survival in the arena of the first two in this movie, but when they went deep into the city, the 76th Hunger Games had already begun, but the opponent was changed from a compatriot to Snow. The fight between the rebels and the rulers is what the "Hunger Games" really means.
Because of my graduation thesis, I have been reading novels repeatedly recently, and the plots in it are already familiar, even the dialogue. So when Katniss and Snow confronted each other in the greenhouse, I almost followed them by heart with excitement; When Katniss aimed the bow and arrow at Snow, but finally shot at Cohen, tears of the diehard party burst out. Maybe I got too deep into the drama, or maybe I love "The Hunger Games" too much.
For Jennifer Lawrence's performance, I can only say it was perfect. She is the sister who does not hesitate to give her life for her sister, she is the rebellious girl who dares to challenge authority in the Hunger Games, she is the leader who is willing to stand up and lead the people to overthrow tyranny, and she is the mockingbird who is reborn from the ashes.
When she raised her bow and arrow, I knew that is my mockingjay.
