Review of Allegiant (2016) by Hohum — 18 Mar 2016

Congratulations to Jeff Daniels - having done Dumb and Dumber, you've now participated in Dumbest.

Honestly the worst thing I've had to suffer through in a theater in recent memory. Having quite enjoyed the first movie, I approached this one with the wide-eyed innocence of the lamb being conveyor-belted to the saw blade. Imagine my surprise upon being assaulted by a nonsensical plot, awful 2D characters and even garbage special effects.

Also, Ladies and Gentlemen - let's pause for a moment to take on a special feeling of disdain for the acting. In particular, Triss' delivery of "maybe they're here to rescue us?" which was delivered with all the emotion and poise of a preschooler reading aloud to class (apologies to all the preschoolers out there).

It's sad that this festering turd of a movie will ride the popularity wave of the books and do quite well for itself. It is most certainly not deserved. Avoid at all costs.
