飢餓遊戲The Hunger Games - Mockingjay Part 1 review 黑色的忍者，無盡的等待。

飢餓遊戲The Hunger Games完結篇來了。但是不脫好萊塢公式，那就是票房好的完結篇都要被拆開來分上下兩集。哈利波特吊影迷胃口足足一年，更離譜的是短篇故事哈比人The Hobbits竟然也可以變成三集(分明搶錢)。這陣子上網看了很多關於飢餓遊戲的影評，普遍都不太給面子。我將眾家觀點集結成一篇給大家參考。英國衛報的影評認為這一集女主角成了看起來裝扮時髦的女忍者a sleek, black-robed ninja，造型滿分但是劇情其實沒有亮點，且大家要有心理準備，因為故事會進行到一半就突然結束了，讓人感到有點措手不及.....真正的完結篇可能又要再等一年，那我們觀眾的情緒該如何聯結?這個沒人關心，總之賣座的就要無限延伸好繼續搶錢。

這一集女主角的造型非常時髦，影片角色的造型可能是第三集上部曲唯一具有可看性的地方。

            上圖一直讓我聯想到3D列印出來的人物公仔(還沒有噴墨上色之前的樣子)

新加入的狠角色Cressida。在《冰與火之歌：權力遊戲》中飾演「剋夫達人」的英國女星娜塔莉多莫，在《飢餓遊戲：自由幻夢Ｉ》以驚人的側面光頭造型，化身革命軍悍將。大家有沒有注意到飢餓遊戲中主角們的名字都非常有特色？2015年鐵定又會成為暴夯英文名字。(不過要取之前得確認發音正確)

 

                                 Julianne Moore也是第三集才出現。頭髮挑染的效果還不錯。

其實自從我最愛的影評人Roger Ebert兩年前過世之後，我的部落格就沒有新的影評文章了。在我心目中，這世上沒有人寫的影評比羅傑叔叔的要好(不信可參考部落格之前上傳過的文章)，所以下面這篇就是抱著分享英文的心態整理出來的。沒有spoilers所以不會洩漏劇情。歡迎下載。要下載英文The Hunger Games 書籍 pdf版的也可以自下面的列聯結下載喔！

To help the cause and ensure Peeta’s safety, Katniss agrees to become the “Mockingjay” – a symbol of hope and pride for the oppressed people of Panem. Yet, as the rebels prepare to battle the Capitol, in the hope of restoring freedom and equality to their lands, Katniss discovers that her choices are not without consequence每一個決定都要付出代價, as President Snow (Donald Sutherland) will use every weapon at his disposal 竭盡所能的to maintain control of the government.

Despite critical and commercial success, there was still plenty of room for improvement還是有很多進步空間(言下之意是不夠好看). For the third installment, Lawrence returns. The filmmaker approaches the two-piece finale上下兩集的完結篇 with the same passion and sharp execution as his previous chapter, but ultimately Mockingjay – Part 1 presents more setup than 上集內容有許劇情結構上的前置安排entertaining payoff而非娛樂效果. It’s a solid entry in the series, and lays an intriguing foundation for Part 2, but on its own Mockingjay – Part 1 is rarely as entertaining or rewarding as its predecessors.

No doubt, Part 2 should flip the scale in the other direction, as the most action-packed Hunger Games installment, but without the luxury of無法享有 watching both films back to back兩片接連著看, Part 1 might be disappointing to watchers who are hoping for a self-contained experience.

The first Mockingjay installment suffers from the same challenges as previous YA adaptations that have elected to split their finales into two separate movie arcs. In the end, Mockingjay – Part 1 isn’t an egregious cash-grab成為暴紅的賣座鉅片, but for viewers who want a full film experience, the latest chapter is The Hunger Games quadrilogy四部曲 could be slightly underwhelming無法激起熱情的. It doesn’t just end on a cliff-hanger在懸崖邊結束劇情(意指在劇情最高潮處嘎然停止) – the film just leaves us off in the middle of a story.
