A movie that is too silly to be so somber, and too somber to be much fun.
Christopher Orr, The Atlantic

The Hunger Games, which kicked off in a blaze of guts 'n' glory in 2012, ends now with a sad whimper, along with a lot of big bangs signifying nothing.
Bruce Kirkland, Toronto Sun

Director Francis Lawrence stages the action sequences... with a modicum of flair, and Julianne Moore as rebel leader Coin gives off some sparks, but for the most part there is nothing divertingly new or different about this franchise fade-out.
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
Rotten
After the forced histrionics of Part 1, it's nice to see star Jennifer Lawrence being allowed to quiet down and act again. But the story still feels stretched, a countdown that slows as it approaches zero hour.
Matthew Lickona, San Diego Reader

This revenge plot animates Mockingjay Part 2 with a satisfying rage.
