Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe statue of Lady Justice seen in the Capitol holds two swords instead of a sword and scales. This is reflective of how the Capitol views justice as a victory over the Districts instead of as a balance or equilibrium. She also wears no blindfold, indicating that the idea of justice in the Capitol is not blind to status or wealth and is a corrupt system.
- Goofs(at around 2h 5 mins) Before Coriolanus is about to jump on the truck to meet up with Lucy Gray, he is seen hiding behind another truck. The camera then pans to the gate which has stationed guards on the same side that he is hiding, meaning the guards should be able to see him hiding in plain sight.

Older Coriolanus Snow: [voice-over] It's the things we love most, that destroy us.
- Crazy creditsIn the opening scene, set during the "Dark Days", an unnamed man is seen apparently engaging in cannibalism; this character is (bizarrely) listed as "Respectable Man" in the closing credits.

Featured review
I will start by saying I don't think it's an 8, maybe a 7.5-7.7 so I rounded up.
However, I went in with low expectations, expecting a big budget movie with a poor storyline but otherwise reasonably watchable. Well, I was pleasantly surprised to find myself hooked! And I daresay it was one of the better Hunger Games movies.
The bad reviews I've read seem to miss the point. This is not a story about the origin of the games, it is not a story about 'Lucy Gray" (even though her name is said about 1000 times)... It is a story about Snow and why he became the psychopath we know from the original stories. I found the not-so-happy ending refreshing and if you enjoy and understand social economic/philosophical dilemmas in terms of human psychology then it adds a notch of appreciation.
Viola, Tom and Peter were excellent in their portrayals. Zegler was fine, a little theatrical but given her background I suppose understandable.
I don't understand the hate. Especially the 1-3* reviews. Like, what were you watching!?
