Catching Fire Movie

Part 2 of 3 in the jaw-dropping and extremely gripping Hunger Games trilogy is set in the ruins of North America in a nation called Panem. It’s directed by Francis Lawrence, and features actors such as Jennifer Lawrence, as the powerful lead character Katniss, Josh Hutcherson as Katniss’ boyfriend Peeta Mellark, Woody Harrelson as the drunk mentor, Haymitch Abernathy, and Lenny Kravitz as the kind stylist, Cinna.

The Lego Movie

The American film directors and former animators, Phil Lord and Chris Miller took on the challenge of personifying Lego and made a hilarious box office smash. Combining brilliant animation and slapstick humour, it was a laugh for the whole family.

The plot is relatively complex for a film aimed at a PG audience. Evil Lord Business steals the “Kragle”, a super weapon, but the wizard Vitruvius warns him of the prophecy that one day the Special will rise with the Piece of Resistance and defeat him. The ‘Mr Average’ character, Emmet, who is a builder following instructions from President (Lord) Business like everyone else, falls down a hole on a construction site and discovers the Piece of Resistance. Emmet becomes The Special and with his team of master builders, goes off on a quest to defeat Lord Business. It becomes clear at the end of a film, that the entire story is in fact, the creation of a young boy’s imagination when he’s playing with a Lego set.
