movie review- annie deitz blog post 17

Like usual, I probably failed, once again, at using technology correctly. But here's the link to what is supposed to be my review, but I'm also going to copy and paste it because I am 56% sure that it did not work and 100% sure that if I didn't do correctly the first time that there is no way I'll be able to do it this time without decreasing my lifetime by a day and a half due to anxiety. So sorry. I did Mockingjay PT 2, by the way. Not Star Wars.

While this movie was certainly entertaining, it pales in comparison with the book. Similar to the other parts of the movie adaptation, it leaves out important- although admittedly not necessarily integral- details. As a big fan of the books however, I was seriously disappointed that any of those details were missing. The soundtrack wasn’t horrible, but I think it could have been better.  And also, a few key moments seemed rushed. One of my more favorite parts of the movie was the wedding, and I don’t think that they spent nearly enough time on it. However, as always, the acting was phenomenal. If Jennifer Lawrence doesn’t win an Oscar for scenes near the end I will be completely astonished. Overall, I left the theatre slightly disappointed. However, I think it’s worthwhile to watch, it’s entertaining. A bit gruesome at times, but that comes with the nature of such a story.
