Catching Fire


Holy crap!!

I  read this book about 2 years ago and just reread it before watching this movie, and I am just blown away. I thought it was a lot better than Hunger Games, and had a A LOT of action!! 

The actors were literally perfect for their roles, and the arena was better than I imagined it!! 

Reading the book, more than half of it takes place before the game and I was wondering how they were going to show all the important details but I think they took out just the right amount of stuff which made it perfect. There were a few people they took out, a few added, details removed, and scenes shortened, but it was all nessesary and worked out in the end. 

There are some pretty hilarious scenes with Effie, especially at the party at Snow's house!!! :) My friends and I pretty much died of laughter!! 

I cried about 5 times during it, and got so caught up into the story, my friend forgot we were web at the movies.. She thought she was reading the book!! 

Sam and Jena were SOO good as Finnick and Johanna!! Mags was soo cute, and Nuts and Volts did a great job! Jena's elevator scene was perfect and hilarious!!

I was looking at the cast on IMDB, and I saw Jack Quaid (Marvel) on there and didn't understand why he was in the movie... But the scene you see him was done soooo well!! You'll be surprised!! 

I still can't get over this movie and how incredible it was!! Even though it's over 2 1/2 hrs long, I didn't ever feel tired, and I was on the edge of my chair the whole time!! 

This won't be a spoiler if you read the books, but I cried at: Peeta, Cinna, Mags, Gale, and District 11 tour. My favorite scenes were the interviews with Caesar, training and the evaluation,  jabberjays in the arena, the monkeys, and Peeta and the force field.

I think anyone and everyone should see his movie!! It's literal perfection. 
10/5 glasses!!! Mind is still blown, and still speechless. At the end, they show the mockingjay pin transition from each of the books, and it made me sooo excited for Mockingjay!!
