New expectation
Josefa 2022-03-16 09:01:02
Unexpectedly, I didn't feel sleepy when I watched this half-night stadium, so it was completely beyond the expectation, especially in the first half, there was a bit of surreal fantasy. Regrettably, in order to meet the requirements of teenage films, the killing part has been greatly weakened. The bloody love affair and tears in it did not get much resonance, but the plot still met my basic requirements for tension. Although a group of young people have mediocre acting skills, the heroine did not choose the wrong person. Hope the sequel will not go downhill like Twlight.

President Snow: [voice over] War, terrible war. Widows, orphans, a motherless child. This was the uprising that rocked our land. Thirteen districts rebelled against the country that fed them, loved them, protected them. Brother turned on brother until nothing remained. And then came the peace, hard fought, sorely won. A people rose up from the ashes and a new era was born. But freedom has a cost. When the traitors were defeated, we swore as a nation we would never know this treason again. And so it was decreed that, each year, the various districts of Panem would offer up, in tribute, one young man and woman to fight to the death in a pageant of honor, courage and sacrifice. The lone victor, bathed in riches, would serve as a reminder of our generosity and our forgiveness. This is how we remember our past. This is how we safeguard our future.
