Leave your thoughts about The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
| Radio TimesAlan JonesExpertly executed without a dull stretch, despite an elongated running time, the second instalment based on Suzanne Collins's bestselling dystopian fantasy trilogy is a top-flight escapist adventure. |
| TV GuideTracie CooperCatching Fire is tightly paced with very little filler. No line or character is wasted. |
| Minneapolis Star TribuneColin CovertThe new "The Empire Strikes Back," a smashing sci-fi sequel that takes its blockbuster franchise into deeper, smarter, more dramatically engaging territory. |
| Lyles' Movie FilesJeffrey LylesSo well done that it justifies every moment fans have not so patiently awaited the second installment of what has become the most satisfying franchise since 'Harry Potter.' |
| Christianity TodayAlissa WilkinsonThe movies (gratefully) violently counteract any attempt we might make to see them as fun escapism. |
| Fort Worth WeeklyKristian M. LinI'd love to report that this adds up to a great movie. It doesn't, but it does add up to a sequel that's a good deal more satisfying than its predecessor. |
| Windy City TimesRichard KnightLawrence is the rare female action-movie lead who carries on the fierce tradition of Sigourney Weaver in the Alien franchise -- easily the best and most enduring "special effect" this movie juggernaut has to offer eager audiences. |
| Tulsa WorldMichael SmithThe movie is a solid example of "the book on film" in spirit, and Lawrence is brilliant in a performance far beyond blockbuster-level acting. |
| Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)Linda CookFull of action, drama and romance, 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire' is every bit as entertaining as its predecessor. A 'link' movie, to be sure, but strong on its own, "Catching Fire" is certain to continue to do just that at the box office. |
| The MercuryTim MartainThere is no law of diminishing returns here. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is every bit as potent and gripping as its predecessor and a real triumph of entertainment. |
