The Hunger Games 2, rare works better than one

Finished watching it at lunch time. The reason why I emphasize the first sentence is mainly to express that the movie is really exciting, so that I am not willing to disconnect and do other things.

I watched The Hunger Games 1 when I was 12 years old. Although the praise continued, I felt it was average, and the theme was not very prominent. In the world in the film, what the world needs is not to win a game, but the system. But 1 is the beginning of the story after all, and it needs to lead everyone to a better situation, but the story that is not very innovative did not leave a deep impression on me. After all, in addition to the background, the others are still full of routines.

Now watching 2 feels much better than 1, the picture is super good and the rhythm is strong, people can't help but follow the ideas of the movie. The slight disadvantage is that it seems that there are too few sacrifices in each district in the game. Although at the end I can see that everyone is protecting the heroine, I still feel that the game is a little too simple. After all, it is not a good idea to upgrade. version?

Hmm, back to the topic. 2 mentioned that the heroine is a symbol of hope. The victory of her and Peeta gave hope to the people of various districts, and the signs of people's resistance became more and more obvious. And this is what the ruler does not want to see, and even planned two conspiracies to destroy the heroine. The first plan is to show the happiness of the heroine's life and make life more difficult for the poor, so as to tell people that the heroine is no longer of their faction, and let people destroy her personally. The second is the game. In fact, the first plan looks inconspicuous, but it is the most feasible and vicious, and it will be tried and tested. It doesn't mean that rebellion should always start from the inside, but unfortunately it was abandoned. The upgraded version of the game really aroused everyone's dissatisfaction. After the fake news of the female protagonist's pregnancy was revealed, everyone in the Congressional District in the stands was moved, not to mention the people in the districts and the game sacrifices.

The so-called repression must be accompanied by resistance. Under such circumstances, the actual resistance of the people in various districts has already begun, and all that is needed is a leader. A good leader may not be resourceful, but must have a strong appeal. The heroine who is already everyone's hope is undoubtedly a good nominal leader. It is nominal, mainly because the heroine has not awakened yet, and all she thinks of is to win a game or let someone live.

The third part should be resistance, I'm looking forward to it, but I think the first two parts are too long as preludes, the awakening of the heroine still needs guidance, and the real leader has not really been specified, I don't know if the third part can be The resistance cannot be completed at a high level. After all, all revolutions are never achieved overnight!

In addition, the name of catching fire is also very fitting. After all, severe suppression cannot destroy all resistance. The darker it is, the light will not be far away~ I must go to the cinema to watch the third part, I hope not will be disappointed.

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire quotes

  • Katniss Everdeen: I just wanted to say that I didn't know Thresh, I only spoke to him once. He could have killed me, but instead he showed me mercy. That's a debt I'll never be able to repay. I did know Rue. She wasn't just my ally, she was my friend. I see her in the flowers that grow in the meadow by my house. I hear her in the Mockingjay song. I see her in my sister Prim. She was too young, too gentle, and I couldn't save her. I'm sorry.

  • Finnick Odair: Katniss.

    Katniss Everdeen: Hello, Finnick.

    Finnick Odair: Do you want a sugar cube? I mean it's supposed to be for the horses, but... I mean who cares about them, right? They got years to eat sugar, whereas you and I... well, if we see something sweet we better grab it.
