Second in the series. I was expecting a lot of character, emotion and story in this which is what the audience got.
I did not find it as appealing as the first and the ending could have been a lot more better and left more of an impact.
Aside Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson the other side-characters are depicted very well, and the overall acting in this film is superb.
It is nearly 2.5 hours long and in order to understand the story, the 1st part is essential viewing.

Don Jon
"Don Jon" is the feature directorial debut of the talented and ridiculously charismatic Joseph Gordon-Levitt. He also wrote the script and plays the title character together with Scarlett Johansson, who really excels in her role too.
Also featuring the always wonderful Julianne Moore in an important role, plus Glenne Headly (I've missed her on the big screen), Tony Danza, and Brie Larson as Jon's parents and sister, respectively; "Don Jon" is worth the visit. Here's hoping for more JGL directorial efforts!

Gravity
Indeed the best space film ever done. This film transports you to space in every cinematic way possible. The visual effects are so brilliantly executed it makes you wonder if they shot part of it in space.
Incredibly effective long takes throughout the film bring the realism and suspense that none other space film has ever done before. The acting is subtle and engaging. Sandra Bullock deserves another Oscar after this as well as best director for Alfonso Cuaron and Cinematography for Emmanuel Lubezki.
I can't recommend this film enough. Ground breaking, beautiful and technically perfect. Film schools will be studying this film in the future.

Thor : The Dark World
A much weaker film than the first, but not a bad attempt. Saw it in 2D.
A good attempt at a story, but felt rushed in parts. Lack of character development led to a little boredom.
Natalie Portman feels underused, but I liked Loki this time - he was a big flop for me in the Avengers Movie.
There is a scene after the credits, so stay that bit longer - there is definately a 3rd film on the horizon.
