THE HUNGER GAMES— MOCKINGJAY PART 2 (Theatrical Release USA 2015)

Ben Meyers’ rating—3.5|5.0 Starsììì

The Hunger Games—Mockingjay Part 2’s best scenes revolve around the oil river and the creatures in the sewers. While the actors featured in this film have high potential for future films, this film did not use their talents to the fullest degree possible. This film finishes the Hunger Games series and does not meet the higher level of quality found in the second film of the series.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?

Maybe. If one is dedicated to finishing the series, this is it; but, it is not the best of the series.
