Having enjoyed the Hunger Games and Divergent series, I thought this looked interesting. Oh, was I wrong. While visually stunning and certainly a thriller with constant action and suspense, the storyline was poorly pieced together (kind of like their lost memory?) All hype that doesn't deliver.

I was torn between wanting to laugh at the ludicrous reasoning of the plot and being just plain annoyed. Now, I have not read the book (only the first couple chapters as a free ebook sample) and I usually read the book before I see the movie-Alas, I can only hope the writer of the book had better story-making skills than the director/producers of this film.

However, based on the movie, I won't even consider picking up the book. What a colossal waste of time. Don't bother.
