The Hunger Games - Catching Fire

Hi,
Just yesterday, I finally saw the second Hunger games movie. And, I have to say that I liked the first one better. It was somehow a complete chapter. This one has too much of an open ending. Yeah, I know there will probably be another one, but still... Second movies in trilogies (tetralogies) are usually the worst. And I think this one is not an exception.

So, Katnis is elected to be part of some kind of special round of Hunger games. Okay. Understandable, since she's the only female to ever win in district 12. There are revolutions and somehow the one who organized the hunger games is part of that. Yes, it's complicated. And frankly, I didn't even try to understand it all.
Another thing is I don't like the mockingjay. Sure, it is the symbol of teh revolution or something. And there is some mysterious district 13 and waht not, but seriously, nightingale would have been better. I like nightingale better. However, if I were to choose a bird, I'd go with the Raven.
Well... That's beside the point. One thing's for sure. Do not try to watch it before watching the first movie. I think it would be too confusing.
All in all, it was kinda a dissapointment. Not completely, but still... Second movie and all that. Unlike the czech movie Babovřesky (second movie), this one was not better than the first, but worst. With Babovřesky, the second was as good as the first. I can't say it was better, it was too different, but it was enjoyable.
Okay, enough of this. I'm getting sidetracked!

See ya.
