THE HUNGER GAMES: SUNRISE ON THE REAPING feels like the sequel to Catching Fire that I always wanted. It’s a near-perfect Hunger Games movie that’s more brutal than you could imagine. Joseph Zada ​​plays a more hopeful Haymitch who I was excited to see evolve into… pic.twitter.com/XliscK3ozs

We’ve seen all this before, but #sunriseonthereaping’s stellar third act pulls the rug out from under you.

#TheHungerGames Sunrise on the Reaping is a beautiful bittersweet story that translates very well to cinema.

I watched #SunriseOnTheReaping and was on the edge of my seat until the very end. Fans of the novel will not be disappointed, especially by the ending. Joseph Zada ​​finds his place as young Haymitch – Jesse Plemmons is another expected star. Emotional and powerful! pic.twitter.com/n6VrVCG8Xy

The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping continues to push the franchise into darker, politically relevant territory. A strong, renewed emphasis on propaganda specifically that is truly successful. The entire cast shines, especially the newcomers playing historical characters…

I saw #SunriseOnTheReaping tonight and OH BOY DOES IT DELIVER.

Unlike all previous Hunger Games films. Forget everything you think you know about the Games. This film takes the plan and redefines it TEN TIMES. Tributes to friends? You are in good hands. You can rest. 🔥 pic.twitter.com/KkDkfMHUB0

I watched #TheHungerGames📷: Sunrise on the Reaping and Joseph Zada ​​took me through an emotional challenge as Haymitch.
