Songbirds and Snakes takes its job Super-seriously, with more solemnity than imaginative excitement.

Luckily, Blyth is savvy enough to not lean into the mustache-twirling or the telegraphing of horrors to come... Both the actor and "Ballad" seem to respect the fans and the franchise.

It has a few laughs and some stylish outfits, but this is unfortunately a shallow prequel, one which fails to breathe new life into the Hunger Games franchise.

It’s in the third act that THGTBOSAS goes completely off the rails, with the story taking place primarily in District 12.

“The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes” has an overwrought title, but it’s the best movie of the film franchise.

This movie finally ties itself into various knots to prefigure the later world of Katniss, but the time to end the Games came long ago.
