THE HUNGER GAMES: THE BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS AND SNAKES

“For much of the runtime, “TBoSS” is a worthwhile addition to “The Hunger Games” cinematic tradition. Populated with captivating characters, entertaining performances, and exciting action, it succeeds more than it misses on a far shorter time frame than its predecessors. However, when it attempts to be meaningful to the larger “Hunger Games” universe, it struggles, feeling rushed and empty.” – Derek Deskins, EDGE Media Network
