I thought Neil Burger did a good job adapting the first film in Veronica Roth’s Divergent Trilogy. The middle novel (but not film since the last book is – of course – being split into two parts) is called Insurgent and opens in theaters March 20, 2015. The first teaser is out today showing a much different-looking Tris (Shailene Woodley) than when we last left her.
I’ll be honest. I really liked Divergent the book, thought Insurgent was ok and thought Allegiant was a bloated mess. I’m puzzled by this teaser, unless it’s simply a nightmare or simulation but clearly they got all the cash they wanted this time to spend on F/X.
I did not see the first one. And I’m not trying to knock it. For all I know it was really good. But everyone should watch this SNL sketch:

That is all.

It got a big “meh” from my gf LOL We both thought the movie Divergent was quite… repetitive…test after test after test and finally a kiss after many longing stares… you could have easily cut 45 minutes out the middle and not lost a thing LOL

My gf didn’t like the book at all but she likes Allegiant. We’ll probably wait for the DVD from Netflix 🙂
