The Hunger Games films have been ‘pretty good’. I wouldn’t say ‘Harry Potter Good’, but I’ve enjoyed them enough that I’m going to be amongst the first queuing outside the cinema to see the final part in the series.
Jennifer Lawrence’s character, Katniss, has risen from a tribute puled from poverty to the leader of a revolution set to topple her peoples’ dictators. She is a symbol of hope that is so strong that people are willing to follow her towards almost certain death.
Realizing the stakes are no longer just for survival, Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) teams up with her closest friends, including Peeta (Josh Hutcherson), Gale (Liam Hemsworth) and Finnick for the ultimate mission. Together, they leave District 13 to liberate the citizens of war-torn Panem and assassinate President Snow, who’s obsessed with destroying Katniss. What lies ahead are mortal traps, dangerous enemies and moral choices that will ultimately determine the future of millions.
The latest trailer shows us that the final film is ready to see this franchise off with a bang. Check it out:
