This is the second year in a row that Hunger Games franchise movies tops America's Box Office Movie Hits during Thanksgiving.
According to a review by IBN Live, the Mockingjay Part 2 is the best among the Hunger Games franchise which are all directed by Francis Lawrence. The Mockingjay Part 2 is the best way to end the Hunger Games.
The movie showed a more mature and clearer-headed Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence. The movie started with how Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 ended and with Peeta brainwashed.
Aside from the action-pack scenes and thrilling twists of sequence plots, many deemed Mockingjay Part 2 as a movie full of heart, courage and passion.
The 45-second conversation between Katniss and Gale was considered by some as the most heart-wrenching scene in the movie.
Meanwhile, Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 is still showing and it is expected that it will continue to accumulate more sales worldwide.
