Review of Divergent

Divergent (2014)
8/10
Is a well done movie even if it is far from perfect .

Unlike the first Hunger Games this one managed to make me get emotionally involved . My major complain is that the other initiates are just invisible , no time was spent to develop those characters and their relationship with Tris. If the other books are made into movies this will be a problem because some of those people have important roles to play .

I sow other people complain that there is no sense of urgency and that may make the movie a bore . I think that this is caused by the fact that they wanted to get a good rating so there is a lot less death, violence and injury in the movie then in the book . In the book kids fall jumping from the train and a boy is mutilated to get him out of the competition.

I agree they could have done a better job showing the pressure the character has to endure but it wasn't boring. If she fails to be accepted in Dauntless she will be thrown out on the streets and on top of that her life is in danger since divergents are killed .
