The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 (2014) HDCAM + Subtitle Indonesia
REVIEW
Damn you Harry Potter, because the effort four years ago to exploit the
potential box-office by dividing the last film into two parts now slowly
going even has become a new trend that is worth trying. Not treatment
is a sin indeed, but the problem is not all movie
adaptation deserve such treatment, not all books or novels have
qualified material to be broken down into several sections, there is
certainly a positive thing, but not a few negative things that can arise
. The first part of the final film in the trilogy fight Panem country
is suffering because of that last, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1, a bit forced, feeble, faint, and facile formality fission for farewell.
The struggle to free the hands of the dictator named Panem of Coriolanus
Snow (Donald Sutherland) resumed, where after a surprise when it
managed to "steal" Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) when reaching
the Quarter Quell middle end, the figure behind the scenes of the
struggle continues to try to continue the mission that they have
designed it. Plutarch Heavensbee (Philip Seymour Hoffman) with a woman
named Alma Coin (Julianne Moore) have designed a revolution to gradually
take over Panem, and their first effort is to try to take advantage of a
fire that has burned uprising remotely, from District 13.
Yes, Katniss Mockingjay has been attached to the image, because the
attitude of "bold" that he show while in the arena of battle The Hunger
Games has managed to attract the attention of the majority population of
the country of Panem that the freedom they desire is not something that
is impossible. This young woman becomes the center of the revolution,
he seems to be a puppet in which the excess try in exploration to
further enlarge the flames of
revolt, one by creating a propaganda video. But unfortunately the other
hand, President Snow also seeks to quell the rebellion, and he had a
very effective weapon, a weapon capable of making Katniss becomes
unsteady: Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson).
Not just a few but very sure a lot of people who have read the novel
trilogy The Hunger Games Mockingjay is said that the book belongs to the
weakest of Suzanne Collins's trilogy, but the opposite is actually
happening to me, super slightly better than cathing Fire, and imo is the
best book of this trilogy. Perhaps the theme of the first shift of the
majority of the fight action contains "real" in the field and then
slightly move toward "mind war" or battle strategy much influence on the
judgment that the book Mockingjay is weak, it does not move as dynamic
as two books initially, he was more contains games of intrigue in
tranquility but had an intense friction, even emotions in this book is
the most "human" status behind the two main characters are limited to be puppet of the two conflicting parties.
But as mentioned earlier was that no matter how exciting, intense,
intimate, thrilling story generated a novel, not all of them deserve to
be broken down to be two parts, and a cunning and stubborn attitude of
Lionsgate finally getting hit hard in the film Here you
are. Although it contains a manipulative game by using the media to
push a political element moving ever forward, Mockingjay basically do
not have enough material to be split into two equal parts is not only
large but also just as good, where the drama and action to help each
other.
So do not be surprised if you are going to feel like there is something
missing in this film from what ever you feel in the two previous films,
as The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 deliberately play in the drama,
and was saving action for part two. Is it something wrong? No, but its
impact Francis Lawrence has failed to provide an adventure that not only
balanced in both the drama and action, but an adventure that also
continue to be able to burn the attractiveness or the spirit of the
audience in a struggle that was built character. Less dynamic, all the
pleasures and interesting things they have built from the beginning as
not getting a great opportunity to grow very well.
Not that bad, even from the side of the conflict itself we will be easy
to find out what really happened between the Capitol, District 13, and
the rest of Panem, and their main efforts to make the audience more
curious about the second film is also fairly good, but the problem is
rather than as a bridge that connects us from one round to the second
half of this movie is more pronounced as an extra time that is too soft.
Yes, too soft, and the story becomes the main issue. The impact is felt
when at the beginning we had the novelist as a screenwriter, then in
the second film we get two Oscar class writer, and this time the story
was written by a figure behind the success of political themed tv-movie,
Game Change.
Finally, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 as fully stuck in that
last theme, the game is full of political intrigue, watching the
characters wrestle with their plans in an underground bunker while
occasionally given the situation that occurred in the districts out
there. So the problem is what? The problem is in addition to their
decision to be faithful to the novel, Danny Strong and Peter Craig did
not successfully develop a synopsis above was to strengthen the charm of
a struggle, but it makes the planning of the uprising that weaken the
heroic Katniss has been piling up for this, and it is unfortunate given
the fact that a great battle had been waiting for them.
Many small parts that can be cut from the film, to then make room for the second half true can also be combined into a single
packaging films. Francis Lawrence may be argued he wanted to further
develop character, and change the color to the darker story, but the
progress that he gave in two of these things seem small, which will also
make you start to think otherwise, it's all about business.
