Comment                   :

After got success in the first edition, The Hunger Game present with the sequel (Catching Fire). Catching Fire will make us more excited to watch it. In this movie there many unpredictable case that make us shock. Everyone have to watch this movie. 

I think this movie is very good. There are many lessons that we can learn from this movie. The plot of this movie is easy to understand. The visual effect in this movie gives the watcher other sensation when they watch it. This movie evidences that the sequel can be better than the first edition.

            There aren’t problem with the display of this movie. I just feel a little disappointed in the end of the movie, because the story is not finish at all. This movie makes us want to see the next story.

Expression in this movie:

·         "go with me" ( when Gale invite Katniss to go with him)

·         “I agree with you, but I don’t know why” (when Peeta talk to Katniss)

·         “So, what would we do?” ( when they want to fight in hunger game)

·         “She is Katniss Everdeen” (when the host calls Katniss in a show)

·         “She is pregnant” (Peeta announce about Katniss)
