The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 How do you take the third, and arguably weakest, book in a widely popular series of young adult novels and turn them into a entertaining movie? I’m not sure, but here’s the first thing to not do: take the blatantly greedy route and stretch it into two movies. Sure, there’s a lot of story to tell, but that’s always the case when adapting a novel. Besides, The Hunger Games, the first novel in the series, had a lot more going on and they managed to do just fine with that as a single movie. As the movie begins, there’s a sequence where the leaders of the rebellion are trying to convince Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) to not just join their cause but become the public face of it. She isn’t really interested, though – she’s still too angry at the rebellion for saving her instead of boyfriend Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) at the end of the last movie – so Plutarch (Philip Seymour Hoffman) convinces rebel president Coin (Julianne Moore) to allow Katniss to return to her home in District 12 and see just how brutal the regime to President Snow (Donald Sutherland) has become. Rather than waste a lot of time showing the decision being passed to Katniss, and her deciding to go, they cut right from the leaders’ decision to Katniss boarding the plane that will take her home. At that moment, I had a thought that the movie was actually going to be tightly edited; that they weren’t going to waste our time. And then I remembered that they were converting a 400 page book into at least 4 hours of movie. So much for tight editing. The first third or so of the movie is actually fairly decent. Katniss decides to become the face of the rebellion, but after trying and failing to act the part in a scripted sequence, the leaders send her directly to District 8, where she gets involved in some combat. It’s fairly exciting and interesting to see her develop from scared, emotionally broken girl to brave rebel. But then the movie just stops. And really, how can it not? What follows is overly long sequence after overly long sequence, all of which could have easily been trimmed to half or less of their length, and many of which could have been cut altogether. The only bright spot here is that at least they assembled a cast of first-rate actors who try their best to carry the movie. Lawrence is of course great as Katniss, and does a good job with the emotional roller coaster the character must ride, and Hoffman, reminding us once again of the tragedy of his untimely death, does well at the scheming Plutarch. The only one I really don’t like – and haven’t liked since the first movie – is Sutherland as the series’ main villain. He’s simply trying too hard, and it shows. Splitting the book into two movies also poses the challenge of deciding where to break, and it’s another instance where the movie fails. There was an appropriately dramatic moment with a genuine cliff hanger: several main characters are trapped behind enemy lines, and Katniss is once again emotionally shattered. But for completely unknown reasons, director Francis Lawrence (no relation to the movie’s star) and writers Peter Craig and Danny Strong keep the film going for at least another 10 minutes, during which they reveal the fate of the trapped characters and allow Katniss a moment of respite. I guess I’d have to sum up the experience of watching The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 as being just as disappointing as I had expected it to be. And to think we still have another 2 hours of this go.
