"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay- Part 1

Take a look @ "the good, the bad and the ugly" in director Francis Lawrence' "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay-Part 1", starring Jennifer Lawrence:

Michael Stevens/SneakPeek.Ca for "The Good" :

"Mockingjay" has a few interesting CG action sequences.

Donald Sutherland relishes his screen time as evil 'President Snow'. 

The late Philip Seymour Hoffman delivers an easy-going, good-natured last film performance...

Jennifer Lawrence as 'Katniss' makes emotional use of her extreme close-ups...

Julianne Moore is lovely as  white-haired 'President Alma Coin' and Natalie Dormer as 'Cressida', cuts a fearsome figure as part of a 'propaganda' film crew.

Graf Orlok for "The Bad":

I admit I may have previously caught a 'glimpse' of those Jennifer Lawrence 'cloud' images on the internet. 

That being said, the actress has endeared herself to me even more than before. I cannot stop looking at her 'Katniss' even though in this film, she doesn't seem to really do much of anything.

Sure Katniss gets demonically mad now and again, her porcelain face turning into a leather mask with glazed eyes, staring here, there and everywhere...

But it doesn't matter. I will love J Law, no matter what film she is in...even if it is a lousy one. 

Jane Doberman for "The Ugly":

Aside from a few generic action sequences with a multitude of extras...

...some unecessarily brutal executions...

...and pretty Jennifer Lawrence running through a gamut of emotions, with the camera focusing so close on her face, you could swear you were sitting in on a nasal endoscopy, this movie did not do it for me..

Hate to say it, but this movie is all talk and no action. Just a set up for "The Hunger Games: Meh- Part 2...
