Igrzyska śmierci: Ballada ptaków i węży - Recenzje

Denna gång får vi följa president Coriolanus Snows tidiga år: från barndomen under krigstiden till sin plats i Capitols bestämmande toppskikt.

Through Snow’s journey, we’re reminded of the terrifying escalation that violence incites, and what we lose when apathy and power trample all.

...humanizes Coriolanus Snow for the sole purpose of emphasizing that a man, not some unknowable monster, was responsible for all of this.

Tom Blyth er overbevisende som en ung udgave af den mystiske Snow...

...everything fans might want from a Panem revisit is here: state-enforced sadism, complex romance, lofty philosophical notions, wicked politics, genetically enhanced creatures, character names out of a Horrible Histories sketch.

...return to the YA dystopia in which kids are forced to hunt and kill each other for the entertainment of a privileged ruling class.

It certainly looks terrific.

Den del (...) der handler om Snows moralske forfald fra velmenende snemand til den titulære slange, er et medrivende bilag til ’Hunger Games’-universet.
