unspeakable goodbye

I originally planned to watch it on the day it was released, but it was delayed until Saturday, and I came to a theater that I had never been to. Like the previous one, alone, with a big glass of Coke, in the last row.
Everyone has almost talked about the plot, but there are actually many well-designed or adapted details in it, and it will pass if you don't pay attention. Again, The Hunger Games isn't a popcorn blockbuster, or rather, the first one is, and the next is definitely not. One is that at the beginning, Brother Hammer and the engineer discussed the power of the new bomb, that is, the first explosion attracted more people, and then the second explosion caused more casualties. When the bomb was dropped later, the director deliberately took pictures of the plane. The sign of Congress is actually a hint. The second is that after Coyne sent Peeta, who was not completely normal, to the big cousin, the big cousin had a conversation with the black team leader, which roughly meant that the team leader actually felt it. At this time, President Coyne sent Peeta over, in fact I want the life of my eldest cousin. The death of my eldest cousin will help her even more, and living is a huge threat. This also explains that after the sacrifice of the black team leader, the eldest cousin can no longer look back. For tasks that Peeta cannot complete, Coyne will always find others to create accidents, kill the eldest cousin, and clear the obstacles for her to become king. These are not plots that need to be read to understand. If you start with the mentality of watching a popcorn movie and think about how intense the war is, it will be difficult to notice these details. Even if you notice, Nor are they linked.
There is also the mentality of the eldest cousin. I also said in the last movie review that the eldest cousin has always been concerned about individuals. She does not want to be a hero, and she has no desire to lead the people. What she does is full of individualism. For the sake of his sister, he participated in the Hunger Games; for his family and Hammer, he acted with Peeta; in order for Coyne to help him save Peeta, he played the role of Mockingjay. Can everyone now understand why she must kill President Snow? In fact, she herself didn't know how much she relied on Peeta and loved Peeta. Seeing that Peeta was tortured by the president and turned into a person, in fact, it was no different from dying. She must be full of thoughts about revenge. Her family has a place to rest, and her brother Hammer has always remembered them. Her own life and death, since she volunteered to participate in the Hunger Games, have long been less important. In the first part, she held a poisonous fruit in her hand. In the second part, she picked up the arrow in her hand and shot it towards the roof of the arena. In the third part, she fought with high spirits in the ruins of war. Which time did she not have one ready? relief? Before she secretly flew to the front line, the moment of embracing with her sister exuded despair, I was afraid that she was prepared to never return, but it was her sister who did not return. So in the end, the sister who had been trying to protect was not there, killed Coyne, and took revenge, and everything was of no importance, which also explained the deadly look in her eyes when she was dragged away by the guards.
These are also the reasons why I like movies more than novels. Generally speaking, the novel is still the keynote of teenage literature, which over-perfects Katniss, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is Mary Sue. The deletion of the movie's plot, the performance of the actors, and the re-excavation of the theme suddenly made it jump out of the rut of teenage movies in the general sense. What we see is a flesh and blood, imperfect but alive Katniss. Although she is unable to jump out of her destiny as the founder of a new era, she has never stopped her pursuit of the life she wants. In the end, she also got her own life, but as she said, the shadow of the Hunger Games is always in her heart, maybe one day everything will fade away, maybe the length of this one day is forever, there are people around her. Peeta, everything is okay, everything is going to be okay.
The topic of acting is also a commonplace. What I like is that everyone pays attention to their roles and does not steal the show. The eldest cousin is indeed very good. Regardless of her image, her nose and tears flowed together in the last scene. What kind of emotions can be conveyed through her own performance. I will not compare it with other protagonists of youth films. , otherwise it is really an insult to the eldest cousin. I want to focus on Peeta, everyone really shouldn't be so superficial, just look at the height to make a conclusion. Peeta gives me the feeling that the more I look at it, the more I feel that the character in this song belongs to him. His appearance is ordinary, but he has a very gentle heart. When Katniss is by his side, he doesn't need to pretend or hide his vulnerability. He can always give her an arm that she can rely on with peace of mind. He understands him, the experience together made him empathize with him, and he also needs her. With her, everything is possible, and there will be no fear of anything. You can say that you don't like the character or appearance of the character he plays, but you can't deny that he has done his acting job successfully. Just think of Orlando Bloom in the Kingdom of Heaven. The plot requires him to be indecisive, less heroic, and more difficult in life. He has completed them one by one, so in the movie, he is undeniably a good actor. Josh Hachette is also the same. In terms of horizontal acting skills, he is indeed not as good as the big cousin and the other two veteran actors, but he is Peeta, those delicate and gentle little plots, and the melancholy little eyes, from the first part to The fourth part, if you watch it carefully, you might still fall in love with him.
The movie is over, and life has to go on, no matter the people in the movie or outsiders, these years are full of expectations, leisurely mixed aftertaste, the people who come and go around, but they are always stuck in their throats, mustering all the courage, Still, hard to say goodbye.

    After so many years, the equipment has not been upgraded; after so many sequels, the plot still has no surprises. (I wish, all your hopes will be ture.)

    1 doesn't like it, 2 can't stand it anymore, and I feel boring and boring under the premise of directly looking at 3 (below) without looking at 3 (above). As I said before, the first episode is enough for the apocalyptic adolescents. The sequel is always digging holes and burying themselves alive. The sequel relies on the broadening of the format to expose utopian conspiracy theories, and the theme becomes darker and heavier, leading to a depressing abyss. The last scene in Philip Seymour Hoffman's life is a profile.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 quotes

  • Gale Hawthorne: This is another version of booby-trapping a resource.

    Beetee: Right, I see.

    Gale Hawthorne: This one's designed to blind. Smoke clings to the eyes. That's an application of the hummingbird trap. You scare people so they flee in this direction into what they think is a safe haven.

    Beetee: Two-tiered explosion.

    Gale Hawthorne: You allow people enough time to rush in, help the wounded, then...

    Katniss Everdeen: A second bomb.

    Gale Hawthorne: Right. Second one goes off here.

    Katniss Everdeen: I guess there are no rules anymore about what a person can do to another person.

    Gale Hawthorne: I don't think Snow used any rulebook when he hijacked Peeta.

  • Commander Lyme: President Coin, we're indebted to you for the reinforcements and the Mockingjay. But I'm not sure that anyone outside of 2 knows what we've been up against. This is the Nut. The Capitol's headquarters for all offensive operations. It's manned by both military and civilian personnel from District 2. As you can see, the fortress lies so far beneath the bedrock, it's untouchable. Yesterday, we attempted to take the northeastern gate. The enemy countered from higher up and we were forced to pull back. We took heavy losses.

    Commander of D5: Could we create a decoy? Send troops towards one gate, launch a staggered attack on another.

    Commander Paylor: Whose troops do you propose as a decoy, Commander?

    President Alma Coin: We have the Mockingjay. Don't underestimate her. We could use her to erode support. She may be able to sway some of the loyalists.

    Commander Lyme: You've been underground a long time, Madam Coin. This isn't like the rest of Panem. Support for the Capitol runs deep here.

    President Alma Coin: Then there is no sacrifice too great. We need to control the arsenal inside that fortress. Even with every district in this alliance, we are outgunned.

    Commander Paylor: I won't commit my people to a ground assault just to pillage weapons.

    President Alma Coin: Commander Paylor, your people have suffered more than just about anyone else at the hands of the Capitol.

    Commander Paylor: Which is why I won't condone a mass suicide.
