Too much of everything

Takes itself way too seriously

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

I am not a technical critic. I just want a movie to move me, to give me an intellectual experience, and excitement. Watching a good movie is like a spiritual experience, you feel like you became richer. I know that it came out about the same time as Hunger Games. However, this movie, somehow I could relate much more to it. And the chemistry was very very good. I want a relationship like that. A strong man and a strong woman. At the time, this was one of the very few, for me the first such movie, where both of the had a sane mental and charismatic strength and they were both striving to make it a better world. Just an uplifting movie for me. The other movies in the series I liked much less, but this first one of the Divergent Series is great I think.

I're certainly saw DIVERGENT by Neil Burger.It is an action and science fiction film which was produced by Red Wagon Entertainment and Summit Entertenment in 2014 and lasted 139 min. This movie is set in Chiccago.It tells the story of Beatrice Prior played by Shailence Woodley .the story talks about Beatrice Prior, later known as Tris a girl who lives in a world with a very important rule faction that abides over and above any blood relation. Tris doesn't care for this rule and stands up against the system when her family is put in danger.This is a story about self-determination, betrayal, romance, war, and the importance of individual choice. I personally think it's exciting,fantastic and powerful movie.

9/10. A film based in a book will never get a perfect 10 for me.... In my mind the chars and the environment, and everything is sooo better (but Christina I imagined exactly the way she is represented in the movie).... But this film, and the history of the whole trilogy, is great. The special effects, the screenplay...

Goodness! Many of the other User Comments for this film seem unjustly brutal. I confess I would probably not be considered part of the usual demographic for this type of movie, being more than half way to my 'three score years and ten'. Perhaps it is because of this I was able to just sit back and enjoy this movie for what it is - solid escapist entertainment with a bit of romance thrown in for good measure. When our real world currently appears to be going to hell in a hand-basket, what on earth is wrong with a healthy dollop of romance and escapism? Some have accused the film of being totally far-fetched - but isn't that rather the point of a futuristic fantasy film? Again, futuristic/fantasy/ sci-fi films are not usually to my taste and I try to avoid anything with wizards and/or dragons at all costs - not my bag at all.I thought that Theo James as Four and Shailene Woodley as Tris had wonderful chemistry. It was also very good to know that the amorous Mr. Pamuk from Downton Abbey lived to fight another day after all! Does he remind anyone else of a young Charlton Heston, or is it just me?
