Saw it with my wife last night, I've the read the books and she has not. Her opinion on Katniss:
"She kind of sucks."
Based on that alone I think the movies are doing a good job showing how she is really just a pawn in the larger game, and horribly broken from PTSD.
They had a much bigger budget this time around and it showed, really like the new casting choices for the victors that got lots of screen time (particularly Finnick, real good choice there).
I'm very curious to see how they break the last book up into two movies, I definitely think it can be done no problem, just interested to see where they choose to break it up.
