The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1
SCORE: 52
Things have spiraled out of control in the fantasy world of Panem. Katniss Everdeen has been talked into being the symbol of the revolution against the capital. The districts are openly fighting against the capital. The response from President Snow is violent, swift, and destructive. District 12 gets leveled just like District 13. We learn that District 13 survived and thrived. They went underground to continue to exist, and they used to be the military district.
Peeta Mellark survived and is in the capital. When The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1 is not being violent, we are treated to propaganda videos from both sides. The Capital wants the violence to stop, and for everyone to sit there and take the whipping they are trying to dish out. The Rebels are fighting the oppressive government. They want to overthrow the dictator and his evil schemes.
I know some will connect The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1 to a variety of situations in the world today. It is so easy to compare President Obama to President Snow. But I won’t do that in this review. Some might even connect the oppressive regimes at companies like Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony to the evil government in The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1. I won’t do that either.
There is plenty of pain, death, war, and suffering in The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1. As a disabled war veteran I understand the price of freedom. I have pain every single day of my life so others can be free to say and do what they please. So they can be rude, ugly, nasty, and mean to me. So they can treat me and fellow believers like second class citizens. At times I wonder if those ungrateful whelps comprehend what they have been given.
