Film ini melanjutkan perjuangan Katniss Everdeen yang kini menjadi simbol perlawanan melawan pemerintahan tirani District 13. Alurnya lebih banyak soal strategi perang dan propaganda, bukan aksi laga seperti film sebelumnya. Buat anak di bawah 13 tahun, saya rasa kurang cocok. Adegan kekerasan memang tidak terlalu eksplisit, tapi ada beberapa tembakan dan ledakan yang bisa bikin anak kecil takut. Yang lebih berat justru tekanan psikologis yang dialami Katniss, termasuk adegan dia menangis histeris karena trauma. Pesan positifnya kuat, soal keberanian melawan ketidakadilan dan pentingnya persatuan. Tapi ada juga dialog kasar seperti 'sialan' dan beberapa referensi alkohol yang cukup sering muncul. Tidak ada adegan seksual sama sekali, dan keberagaman karakter lumayan terlihat. Secara keseluruhan, film ini lebih cocok untuk remaja usia 13 tahun ke atas dengan pendampingan orangtua.
