I don't write reviews often. I read the original trilogy as a kid and saw the first four movies as they came out. I recently rewatched some of them since my sister got into the series. I have to say that this movie was the best out of them. It explains the story of how the hunger games started in the first place and shows what one of the original games looked like. It also shows how Coriolanus Snow transformed from a likable, kind person into who he is in the original books. It also gives new meaning to the Hanging Tree song which is iconic to the series. The acting and visuals were very good.
