Movie 1, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 2014

The rebellion begins in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1, the tense and emotional third chapter of the epic dystopian series.
Following the dramatic events of Catching Fire, Katniss Everdeen awakens in District 13, where she reluctantly becomes the symbol of the growing rebellion against the oppressive Capitol. As she struggles with trauma and the burden of leadership, Katniss agrees to be the “Mockingjay,” the face of the revolution—while secretly working to rescue her captive friend, Peeta Mellark.
This instalment focuses less on arena battles and more on political strategy, propaganda warfare, and the personal cost of revolution. Taut, character-driven, and filled with emotional stakes, Mockingjay Part 1 sets the stage for an explosive finale.

Movie 2, Kindergarten Cop, 1990

In Kindergarten Cop, Arnold Schwarzenegger trades in action for applesauce in this unique and surprisingly heartwarming action-comedy hybrid.
Detective John Kimble is a tough-as-nails cop used to high-stakes takedowns—not finger painting. But when a case forces him to go undercover as a kindergarten teacher to protect a witness and track down a dangerous criminal, Kimble finds himself hilariously out of his depth. As the chaos of the classroom challenges his patience and resolve, he begins to discover a gentler side of himself—and a new respect for early childhood education.
Blending comedy, action, and sentiment, Kindergarten Cop is a fun and memorable ride for fans of 90s classics and Arnie enthusiasts alike.
