Katniss Everdeen was the box-office victor one last time, though her latest win is a tad bittersweet.<br />The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2, the fourth and final installment in the dystopian adventure franchise, opened with $101 million and wholeheartedly beat down the competition, according to studio estimates from Rentrak.<br />That’s the good news for the Jennifer Lawrence action vehicle.<br />The bad news is, even with a 70% positive rating from critics at aggregate site RottenTomatoes.com and an A- grade from CinemaScore audiences, the series closer had the weakest debut of the bunch.<br />The first two Hunger Games movies in 2012 and 2013 snagged $150 million-plus openings, and last year’s Mockingjay — Part 1 opened with $122 million.
