Trivia

In the epilogue, Josh Hutcherson (Peeta Mellark) wears a blond wig for the first time. Hutcherson had dyed his hair blond for all of the Hunger Games movies and hated it a lot. Since the epilogue was shot several months after principal shooting ended, and the shooting only took a few days, Hutcherson decided not to dye his hair again and wore a wig instead.

Goofs

When Katniss talks to Boggs alone out in the square, the shot goes back and forth from showing her face to showing Boggs'. Katniss's hair moves from on top of her hood to inside of her hood between shots.

User Reviews

Yes,they managed to do it.Worse than part 1.

OK,it's not that part 1 was good,you actually knew it would suck,but the 2nd really grinds my gears.

You have in your hands a civil war,the final battle into the heart of the capital,and you spent 2 hours of your life watching your main character taking a walk in a war zone.

And with all that time strolling,you have no character development,for none of them,just a few moments that the movie is like "Ok,from now on,that's how things are".

I watched this for closure,i wish i hadn't.

I didn't expected it to be a great movie,just a good action one,and it failed.Miserably. For goodness sake,London has fallen had more character development than a book based quadralogy,LOTR had less walking..good riddance to the series.
