    • Trivia
      The book describes the previous two Quarter Quells. For the first, District members had to vote on who would be selected as the tributes. The second had twice as many tributes, two boys and two girls from each district. The book also reveals that Haymitch won the second Quarter Quell.
    • Goofs
      When Katniss pulls a wire from the lightning-struck tree down toward the beach, the wire gets stuck further up the hill. That shouldn't affect her ability to keep moving because she is holding the coil.
    • Quotes

      Peeta Mellark: Katniss, I don't... I don't know kind of deals you made with Haymitch, but he made me promises too.

      [Pulls off the necklace from around his neck]

      Peeta Mellark: If you die, and I live, I'd have nothing. Nobody else that I care about.

      Katniss Everdeen: Peeta.

      Peeta Mellark: It's different for you. Your family needs you.

      [Opens locket to reveal three pictures - Gale, Prim, and her Mother]

      Peeta Mellark: You have to live. For them.

      Katniss Everdeen: What about you?

      Peeta Mellark: Nobody needs me.

      Katniss Everdeen: I do. I need you.

    • Crazy credits
      The ending of the film has the Catching Fire logo shift into the Mockingjay one to tease the future of the films.
    • Alternate versions
      Blu-ray Disc versions of the film feature the IMAX scenes in a taller aspect ratio, thus staying more true to the original theatrical exhibition, similar to what was done with the Blu-ray releases for the Christopher Nolan Batman movies.

    Visually Stunning. Beautifully Tragic. A Masterpiece. (A book fan review)
    I first want to say that if you are a fan of the books, you will NOT be disappointed. Compared to the first movie adaption, this one soars, leaving the other movie to die out in the hot desert sun.

    I had re-read the book a day before I saw it and so I could see what the critical changes were. I would know every fine detail they let out. I first have to let you know that every book-to-movie adaption can't have 100% of the book in their. Plus, the new director, Francis Lawrence, had to clean up the mistakes the first director left out. Another thing, all the very important and even some parts you might think Hollywood would oversee is stitched together.

    This has to be the BEST book-to-movie adaption I have ever seen. The visuals, for one, is spectacular. $140 million budget was not wasted, that's for sure! The director packed every little intricate piece possible to make it THE BEST experience us fans could have.

    The acting was phenomenal. Katniss is a lot more lively now, because Jennifer Lawrence finally understood her character. The whole cast, including Sam and Josh, were amazing. Even the actress who played Johanna Mason, was FUNNY!

    The music, however, copied the first, because I bought the first soundtrack, so I know every little musical detail. They must have used the same music and added a few more. That was sad. But, it did fit with the scene.

    The action and suspense will never leave you, as the ending is a cliff hanger, holding on for dear life! (Hunger Games book fans: you won't be disappointed with the ending)

    Without a shadow of a doubt, this movie, Catching Fire, really does catch fire and immerses the audience in the Hunger Games. I was truly speechless after the film because it was just so beautiful and satisfying. You don't want to miss the best film of the year, and possibly the highest grossing film of all time!!!
