I went and saw this a couple of weeks ago with some friends... Definitely better than the first one, especially the cinematography (no wierd shaky scenes like the tracker jacker scene in the first Hunger Games). Also, the acting felt more real to me in Catching Fire - Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson really get under the skin of their characters second time round. Semi- spoiler alert:For those who haven't read the book, the movie ends with a cliffhanger (which - unlike me - you may accept with relative poise and patience, as opposed to my mini-apopleptic fit in the darkened cinema) so...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED....
