... View MoreOne of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
... View MoreI have no idea why there are so many very negative reviews. I'm guessing the ratings are being intentionally sabotaged as they frequently are by pack working in concert. Regardless, the movie was great with lot of action and special effects, great story line and concept. The actors were well-suited to the roles and Tris character and performance was outstanding. DEFINITELY worth seeing!!
... View MoreWhile this film is the same type of film where 12 year olds seem to read this pap about 17 to 23 year olds being the heroes and anyone over 30 being evil or irrelevant, like the sad and hopeless hunger games, where life is futile and pointless, there was something about this film that I came to like. Maybe I just ignored that tragic perspective about a sad future of the world where everyone has been put under some kind of 1984esq loss of freedom. The characters were determined to get to the source of the problem and bring resolution, and determination & grit ruled the day. I loved the escape by train scene. Not a bad one.

View MoreInsurgent(2015) Starring: Shaliene Woodley, Theo James, Miles Teller, Kate Winslet, Ansel Elgort, Naomi Watts, Maggie Q, Jai Courtney, Ray Stevenson, Zoë Kravitz, Octavia Spencer, Suki Waterhouse, Rosa Salazar, and Daniel Dae Kim Directed By: Robert Schwentke Review One Choice Can Destroy You You know i'm beginning to see a pattern with all of these dystopian young adult books. They have one good film in their series or no good films, so far with Hunger Games theirs one(catching Fire) and with this series it's zero and getting worse. That is quite disappointing given some of the talented actors I saw in this movie, and actors who have such potential but are in films that are just messy. The second chapter in the Divergent series sees Tris Prior where we left her, hiding in a faction called Animety or something like that. While Janeine(Winslet) has taken over the city and has ordered the dauntless to search for a special divergent to open some box that was found at the Prior home. As to why only one special Divergent can open the box the movie has no clue, no one divergent should be able to open the stupid thing, if only a divergent can open it, then any divergent should be able to, not just the chosen one or something. You know I actually walked out waiting for my mother to pick me up and some elder man asked "what was the moral?" and I wanted to answer better question "What was the point?" this movie is not fun, engaging, have a good story or resembles any awe or enjoyment so what was this film trying to accomplish. The performances may be good from some of the actors which is the only thing that saved the first film, and the only thing that is saving this film, but I hated this one more than the first one. I do not care or know about any of these characters. They are not likable, they are all a-holes. When Tris's brother try's to help her the first she just yells at him, Four just gets tough for no reason, Janeine is the villain so you probably won't like her because her motive sucks, and Miles Teller plays an a-hole. The film does not come all together in a well constructed formulaic fun or interesting picture it just comes off as an okay Michael Bay movie, the only difference is better acting. I'm giving Insurgent a one and a half out of five.
