So.... it's Edgy Dystopian Hogwarts, where everyone gets sorted into a House. The lead character joins Slytherin and stops an uprising led by Ravenclaw, who wants to destroy Gryffindor for not fully explained reasons.

The movie Divergent is a good movie except that it is very different from the book, as one would expect since it is shorter. I enjoyed the movie as a summary of the book. However, the movie focused more on the love story than the book…

Interesting concept but the story-line failed to fulfill the promise. This movie could have been so much better... ...and the love story only made the movie worse. LOL

Awesome movie. It did steer away from the book a couple times though. I recommend reading the book before the movie. The book is 1000 times better. Still a great movie though.

I liked the beginning of the episodes, and thought that there might actually be something new and thought-provoking in it. Alas, too much of the plot depended on the reader/watcher accepting what happens without question (oh -- what does…

I love this movie. I read the book and watched the movie. Overall, it is great but they do change somethings from the book and don't add somethings. But they do get the main point for it and all. Definitely worth the watch for sure. 100/10

I liked this DVD and the whole series. It is too violent and sexual for kids to watch. In a world where people are divided into distinct factions based on human virtues, Tris Prior is warned she is Divergent and will never fit into any one…

I think overall, this was a very good movie. I think that it was kept very accurate to the book, even though they left out rime minor details. One such detail was a conversation with tris and Al.It shiwee more to their friendship than the…

From a world-building standpoint, the premise makes absolutely no sense. As an adaptation, it's not the best. It's just a average YA dystopian, nothing too special. The casting, especially for Tris and Four, I don't think were good…

This was the closest movie adaptation of any book I have ever seen. That absolutely amazed me. The only reason I gave it only four stars was because, like the book, it was violent, and that was harder to take in the movie version. If you…

Wow, another semi-letdown. Why they would cast Shailene Woodley as lead i do not know as a almost career b-actor. I guess she's affordable. Sorry i have nothing good to say about this series except they at least didn't skimp on the cg…

I loved this movie! I read the book and it’s one of my favourites, so I was so excited to see the characters on the pages come to life. I loved that several parts of the film were narrated by Tris just like in the book. I also loved how…

Good, but I just can't stand Shalene Woodley

A dystopian movie similar to The Hunger Games. It focusses mostly on Beatrice trying her hardest to succeed in her chosen faction, while discovering that the system has to end.

gr8 sci-fi but trouble when one is too smart for the system.

Man, so I went into this movie absolutely oblivious to the books; which is a first for me - I usually have read the newest YA craze on the block. But I was pleasantly surprised by this one - it was absolutely wonderful. I fell in love with…

A guilty pleasure. Not lying, I never liked Hunger Games. While of course not as good as the book, still has enough to get mildly interested. Perfect? Heck no. A waste of time, definitely. Fun waste of time, yep. Check it out.

Not a bad try. I found it entertaining. There is some swearing and a sexual reference. Watch this movie if you don't want to think to much, a couple of plot holes.

Solid movie. Liked the dystopian future aspect of the story.

In a dystopian future where society is divided into five factions that each strive to live up to a particular virtue, a girl struggles to find where she fits, and discovers that there is more happening beneath the orderly surface of her…

I liked this movie better than the hunger games. It's similar in some ways but yet so different and I was glad for that. It was actually better than I was expecting. I really like the characters. The plot is good and very believable. It's…

Not quite the hunger games, but it is still a good story with a strong female lead.

tris was not a strong main character. plus the whole idea of factions where everyone was supposed to be just 1 kind of personality seemed silly since EVERYONE in the movie was obviously displaying attributes of several factions at once. …
