MOVIE REVIEW: Insurgent

 

Insurgent

Movie Review!

Alright ladies and gents it's time for another movie review because I could not pass it up! I have come to like doing these movie reviews as it let's me express myself..about how much I still do not like books becoming movie adaptations..okay that is a lie I LOVE books becoming movies. Yet, like everyone else, I get upset at the things that are changed...that is why my friends you can never please a book addict when it comes to movie adaptations of books. 

I will not lie and say that this movie was bad because it was far from it! I loved the action, the slight romance (that really did not show as much), the plot (that still was kinda not there), and all the drama that went with the book! 

I love the actors Theo James (who is my bae) and Shailene Woodley. I will give the director credit for picking actors that fit the description of the Tris and Four. They both show the right emotions when it is needed and they both act perfectly together.

What bothered me the most was the huge changes they made from the book. The first movie - Divergent - had followed the book fairly well, to my belief any way. The Insurgent adaptation, while followed the main themes, did not really follow the book at all...ESPECIALLY THE ENDING. Which is all Im going to say about the ending. I just could not believe how many things changed. My sister in-law and I sat there and pretty much counted how many things were missing or put in place. 

It was not small things missing but the large parts; it was the important aspects of the book that helps understand the next book - Alligiant.

However, in the end I still loved the movie. 

RATING: 5.5/10

(according to the IMDB rating system)
