The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1: Slow but Necessary

The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 1 may be slow, but it is a necessary chapter in the onward march of Katniss Everdeen and the ongoing tale of revolt in Panem against the Capital and President Snow. The film ended its first weekend with very impressive box office figures which, despite reports of Lionsgate’s stock falling in value, show how well this slower paced episode in the long story of The Hunger Games has performed.
