Successfully surviving in previous Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence), seemed to be waiting serene life of a successful athlete in retirement: it will never make participation in the massacre, and have to live in a more comfortable "village winners" in the neighborhood with his partner Pete (Josh Hutcherson). However, to win the game - not so bad. Katniss victory inspired the inhabitants of 12 districts in the rebellion against the Capitol with ease existing dictator Snow (Donald Sutherland) headed.
The girl herself unwillingly, became so popular that even this most granddaughter Snow wearing the same hairstyle, like Katniss. President nervous, threatened (though in vain), but eventually comes up with a way to eliminate the danger of rebellion. Snow announces the beginning of the jubilee 75's Hunger Games to be held in a big way and, of course, with the participation of the main muse rebels - Katniss Everdeen. Outcome games, however, remains the same: to win only one.
Swipe - perhaps the keyword second part of "The Hunger Games." This is evident in the costumes and scenery, and in action. Here arena celebration turns into a field where converges most that neither is the Champions League (participants are former winners of games games, real pro-thugs). And unlike the Olympics doping Hunger allowed. Someone sharpens teeth fangs make it easier to cut the throat of the enemy, someone unwinds his track power cable. The arena itself is designed as a sophisticated and large-scale instrument of torture: the bloody rains, poisonous fog and a host of other merry activities.
The merit of the director and the author of books on which filmed "The Hunger Games" is that the second part is incomparably better, or rather, more interesting the previous film. It has more action, tension and effectively. But even this is not important. If the first film is the essence of the action was limited to the instinct of survival, "Catching Fire" grows in breadth and depth.
It seems as if the background in the film unfolds the revolutionary events in the community. However, here the scale is such that it is hardly Actor. The theme of rebellion becomes a leitmotif of the second "Hunger Games." Transformation touched the minds of the entire state, but mainly changes occur within the main heroine.
Katniss realizes that of a frightened virgin she will become a true Joan of Arc. And even if destined to be burned at the stake, before this should seriously fight for justice. The most famous woman of the 12th district's no longer a single soldier. She - the character in which to believe. This means that help will come from where nobody expects: whether it is your pomaded hatter or the laws of physics. After the flame is always flares up from a spark.
