WHY DO PEOPLE HATE Mockingjay Part 1 (Reaction/ Commentary): FIRST TIME WATCHING the Hunger Games 

I don’t think enough people talk about the sad reality of how snows granddaughter is so terrified she immediately takes out her hair as he’s talking. She doesn’t think she’d be an exception. She knows he’d kill her too

To see Peeta like this breaks my heart. In the first movie he told Katniss he wanted to show the Capitol that they didn't own him, that they couldn't take his identity away from him . . . and that's exactly what the Capitol did 😭😭😭

The only reason folks don't like this film as much as the others is the lack of action. It's way more slow-paced in comparison to the others. But I think all four films are amazing!

Effie wasn’t forced, but she also wouldn’t have had a choice. She was part of the “team” that betrayed the capital. If she had stayed she probably would have been executed and they probably would have broadcast it.

Finnick’s speech is so powerful especially with how victors are treated if they are deemed attractive, if katniss and peeta weren’t a couple that could have been their future

The hand gesture has been used in both Thailand and Myanmar in real life after the movies came out and those governments also have forbidden it.

J-laws performance is so good, the subtle differences between the awkward speeches and the real ones. Really need to watch Red Sparrow and Mother! with J-Law. She brings it in both. The scenes where the districts are revolting and just running against the odds get me everytime.

The stark contrast in Peta is the thing. It's not just that's he looks thin and frail, people all over the districts are thin and frail. With Peta it's the change, in the first film his raw power is literally the talent he uses to get attention. He had great strength but didn't act like a muscle bound jock. He was tender and caring. Now he's thin and frail on the outside but acting loud and obnoxious.

The fact that this is another reaction I've watched with a comment that Peeta is useless, shows how badly they portrayed his character in the films. It's not too bad if you've read the books because you can backfill, but pretty much no one who watched the films gets how useful Peeta actually is.

you'll understand why she kisses gale when you read the books. the best word i would use to describe the kisses from her is Guilt

This film is dedicated to the loving memory of Philip Seymour Hoffman, who died a week before filming ended. Since the majority of his scenes for the final two movies had already been filmed, the role was finished with other characters taking on his lines.

Wish you hadn't cut out some of the important scenes with Peeta ☹️ Also I think she's saying "Lana Del Rey" lol

I'm bummed you edited out all of Peeta's content. He was the best part of this movie, imho.

I love this movie/book. Especially in the book it’s like a whole new world to discover. And it’s is very emotional.

Love your reaction! As always... 💜 I think Jennifer Lawrence does a freaking great job portraying Katniss and her trauma. Everyone is allowed to have their own opinions, in my personal opinion all three movies are gems. Of course the books are better (at least that's what I think) but these movies and their actors are truly awesome and super enjoyable. There are many people who don't understand Katniss, but it's fairly easy: imagine yourself in her shoes, living in a world like Panem, with the hunger games and living in the poor districts, trying to care for your family as a teenager and wanting to protect your sister etc, and all that at such a young age. Honestly who wouldn't be traumatized? And yet Katniss STILL stands tall and brave, trying to make the best of her circumstances. And I like the progress of all the other charecters like Haymitch, Effie (bless her heart!), even Prim... The story of the hunger games is a great one and the movies do the books justice!

watching the District 13 bombing scene in a movie theater with premium sound is indescribable! you literally feel the world crumbling around you!!

The marketing for this film was amazing. Every teaser and trailer were made to emulate propaganda from both sides. I still remember the excitement of us as fans and the community. You should check it out.

love your collaborations, esp the hunger games franchise so far. Can't wait for the finale!

Another amazing reaction! While I do agree that the film is slow due to it being only the first half of the book, I think it’s nice that it has this pacing because it supposed to be I think of representation of what Finnic just told Katniss that it takes a person longer to put themselves mentally back together after they breakdown. So over the film you see her trying to adapt to life in District 13 as well as struggling with being the Mockingjay, her trauma, and trying to find a way to get Peta out of the Capitol. And if you loved Philip Seymour as Plutarch, I must recommend his film with Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton, Twister. ❤️‍🔥🏹

"Why Do People Hate Mockingjay Part 1" - they do? I know that a great deal of Katniss' mental anguish was left out (as was the training she and Johanna Mason underwent) but it is still an entertaining movie (IMHO - anyway).

This edited out most of the powerful moments. Interesting choice, that I can understand, if you were roo engrossed to react, but I would love some facial expressions/reactions to Peeta, particularly. (That is, unless you were cutting out embarrassing/inane comments from your guest. In which case, you did a public service.)

What happened to Peeta's interviews?

I'm still somewhat disappointed that they didn't end this movie right when Boggs whacks Peeta over the head with a tray and the screen goes black, I feel like it would've been better if the second part opened with Katniss in the hospital.

The shakey Cam was necessary because they were murdering children. They had to obscure it. I wish people understood what they had to do for this first movie to be PG-13.

How could you guys cut your reaction to Peeta and Katniss reuniting????

The editing choices in this video was kind of weird. Does anyone else feel like so many impactful scenes were cut out? Especially many of Peeta's scenes like him choking Katniss and warning them about the attack on district 13. Or Katniss's conversation with Snow about him knowing her friends were in the tribute center. It just feels like the scenes that made this movie so great were not in the final cut. Kind of a bummer, but hopefully the part 2 reaction will be a little better.

I don’t think anyone hates this movie lol

Sad that the reaction to this part is sooo cut down

13:45 When the Hunger Games movies were in cinemas, I do remember some pretty meta ads and posters to promote the film coming out, to make people feel like the rebellion was real etc.

I love Mockingjay pt 1, it's actually my favorite of the 4 movies. Maybe because Mockingjay is my favorite book in the original trilogy.

Actually, Hoffman died during filming, and they had to rewrite some scenes in part 2.

Great reaction!

I get that you have to edit out some parts so the video is not 2 hours long and you have exclusive content for patron but this felt kinda underwhelming 💔 you guys left the most important parts of the film out 😕 I love your commentary but also I would love to just see you guys truly react to some scenes without feeling the need to make a statement or a joke about it. I feel like when you make collabs is fun and all but you miss so much sensible parts of the films where you just have to watch with full concentration to truly appreciate them (every scene with how the revolution started to form thanks to Katniss's actions is goosebumps worthy and beautifully made, but it's almost like it was just another part of the movie 💔 ) I can't speak for everyone, but for me the point of watching reaction videos is like, when you show your friend a movie you love and want to see him go through the same emotions you did when you first saw it. And maybe talk about it ✨after✨ to see what they think of it. But for that you need those spaces of silence and concentration in between, that are maybe been taken for granted by just editing in the parts with commentary in them. Idk. I love your channel ❤ and I absolutely thank you for making these videos for us! I only mean this as an observation ♥️ Lots of love for you guys and thank you again 😊

You left out some of the best scenes of the movie, Peeta's warning and he attacking Katniss 🙄😒

I was right in with the Twilight thing but holding off on the Hunger Games just outta stubbornness.

🤷🏼‍♂️ I don't know anybody who hates this one. 😶 You have weird interactions with people. 🤔 Opinions are mixed on the last installment, but it is still great and closes out the saga well. Can NOT believe you cut the reunion with Peeta! One of the most amazing scenes in the saga!

I prefer slower paced movies as long as the plot and dialogue are good. And it complements the action. Great fast paced action films with weak dialogue never makes a good film. Never!!! Even if the dialogue is minimal. Make sure that it's explains and complement the action. #TeamPeta 😂😂

The people who made Thor actually was on the Honest Trailer channel and they said they actually say they want to Honest Trailer proof their movie! 😂😂😂 I forgot the title of the video. I just remember they watched the Thor Honest Trailer with them.

Hey Thor. Would you react to "Die Hard", or have you seen it? "Lethal Weapon" l, ll, & lll are also great movies, if you haven't seen them.

19:10 You don't have to imagine - Russian war in Ukraine is still happening.

Will part 2 go up next Friday? I'm going on vacation and don't want to miss it

A little difference from the book, effie is dead, but catniss' prep team are the ones who are with her instead of effie

I don't think it's necessarily that people hate this movie I think it's just that it's a very different vibe from the previous movies in the series and the fact that it was split in half making you wait to finish up the book and it's pretty harsh with some of the deaths in there and I was pretty offended by how the book and the movie ended I didn't like that I am not going to say how it ended cuz I don't know if you guys have actually watched that part yet but there's some deaths in the last book that are in the last two movies that really just crush your soul and it's really hard for people to deal with and it's not like it's a game like The hunger games it's not like it's some action adventure kid thing this is a straight-up war movie this is the f****** revolution this is how it all ends but I'm very much looking forward to the ballad of songbirds and snakes becoming a movie cuz I heard there is going to be a prequel movie I don't know if it's going to have the same title as the book though but I very much would like to suggest that you read the books there's a lot of stuff that wasn't included in the movies and a lot of people didn't look like they did in the books like for instance the people from the seam you know katniss's area of district 12 they were all basically starving so she wasn't thin enough for this role they also all had black hair and gray eyes with the exception of her mother and sister who were not born from that area the mother was I believe from the rich part of 12 like Peeta and primrose took after her I also didn't like something else about the very end of the book which is in part two of the movie but all complain about that when you see it cuz I don't want to give spoilers in case you haven't already seen it I mean since this has been edited and posted you probably already seen it but I don't want to give spoilers in case you haven't

Both "Mockingjay" parts should have tightened for one movie as originally intended. It was divided into two because it had become trendy to divide the last book, starting with Harry Potter and Twilight. Now that I think about it, I'm going to rewatch both.

Thor, please tell me you didn't forget to add "Scent of a Woman"

Poor Peter

Love your reactions, but I couldn't watch this one 🤷🏾 It was pretty much a monologue... But I gave it a like anyway.

21:25 Heya hey beautiful angry woman. I adore her, she is angry and not afraid to show it.

Pleaase look up Lana Del Rey Summertime Sadness plz!!?

How dare you say you have no idea who Lana Del Rey is.

lana del rey vibes for sure :)

It's just suddemly got very different than the first 2. From a coming of age, love triangle, fashion movie, it became a bleak, too close to reality, political war movie. I love it the first time watching tho

You dont know Lana Del Ray? Really? 😂

Your guest ruined this for me. You seem to take the reaction more seriously, while her attitude is mostly disrespectful. She is the only reacter, for example, that Would have ever seen who felt Peeta or Katniss should have died in the first movie; everyone else is so relieved that these two CHILDREN find a way to both live. What a cold attitude! Even Rue's death and Cinna being beaten to death didn't move her. Get rid of the guest and rely on your own far superior reactions!

I didn't like this movie as much as the others because its way too much Peeta. He is my least favourite character lol

because its not good
