HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE by Michael Johnston

HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE
 by Michael Johnston
 
 
hunger games catching fire.the 2nd part or the story picks up right from the end with the winners doing a begrudging pr tour of the districts with all the characters from the original(well the ones that didn't get killed anyway) and the addition of new gamesmaker the late Philip seymore Hoffman playing his usual subtle but brilliant. the relative comfortable life that katniss and peetr have is thrown into panic when president snow announces all the previous winners have to compete in the games this year ,katniss and peetr are not playing ball on the tour and causing a bit of unrest so must be taken out. when the movie gets to the games it all feels very similar and like the saw movies etc its just a case of oh heres a new danger/way to die etc ..its all going well and its a fun ride then being a 3 part story .(dragged out to mokingjay part 1 and 2,kerchinggg) it suddenly ends and you feel very unsatisfied and somewhat cheated.i fear the 3rd instalment will be even more drawn out ,good film but not great ...mrs loved it though
