       After watching Hunger Games: Catching Fire, I can assure you that this movie is a science fiction. The movie clearly shows what a science fiction is. It can be proven by those very advance technology used in the movie. Examples of those advance technology are the futuristic train, the arena where the battle was held, and the training ground where the tributes practice. The arena was a complete product of technology, the revolving clock at the center of the arena, lightning that struck inside, the tidal wave, the poisonous gas, and others.

                The movie was commentary on past, present and future because some parts from the movie depicts characteristics of how was life on that time period. An example that would depict the life in the past is during the hunger games, the tributes are shown to be more barbaric rather than civilized people. The tributes used some adaptive behavior just to survive the battle like the use of camouflage, having sharp teeth and the likes. It also depicted the present because, similar to the situation of the districts and the world we have right now. The districts also has slums and a working class. And lastly the depiction of the future, the future was depicted very clearly due to the fact that the entire movie had shown the use of futuristic devices and very advanced technology. Even during the battle, technology played a big part there.

                The technology did not succeed on all the district because some technology were destroyed by some people living there. Even the arena was destroyed by the main protagonist. The technology they have was not enough to prevent a rebellion from coming.
