Review of Insurgent (2015) by Ilsa W — 19 Mar 2016
I think I preferred the first movie. There is just something about these films that doesn't do it for me. I think it's Shailene Woodley. I just don't find Tris likeable at all. I also do not find her believable in the least as the heroine.
She's no Jennifer Lawrence that's for sure. The only half decent things in this movie are Theo James for looking at and Miles Teller for his entertaining slippery character. Everyone else is just not fleshed out enough for you to care or is unlikable.
It doesn't help that you can't help but compare this serious to the Hunger Games and the Maze Runner and all the other book series they've made into films recently. The Divergent series is definitely in third place for me at the moment.
