I saw Mockingjay Part 2 today

I give it seven out of ten. Too much talking, not enough killing.

The fatal flaw in this picture is as plain as day: they tried to make an exact duplicate of the book. It took about an hour to get to any action, and even after they got there they still spent much more time planning and discussing than they did shooting at Peacekeepers. They would have been better off modeling their film after The Guns of Navarone or Robocop (much more action than talk) rather than My Dinner with Andre.

I'd see it again and I'll buy a Blu-ray of it, but at least now I know where the boring parts are.
