Movie Synopsis:
Tris must escape with Four and go beyond the wall enclosing Chicago. For the first time ever, they will leave the only city and family they have ever known in order to find a peaceful solution for their embroiled city. Once outside, old discoveries are quickly rendered meaningless with the revelation of shocking new truths. Tris and Four must quickly decide who they can trust as a ruthless battle ignites beyond the walls of Chicago which threatens all of humanity. In order to survive, Tris will be forced to make impossible choices about courage, allegiance, sacrifice and love.
My Review:
The third installment of the Divergent Series: Allegiant -- The film showcases two stunning new worlds. The radioactive red landscape outside of the wall and the Utopian type high-tech societies.
There are a lot of action sequences that will thrill its audience. The escape scene from Chicago and the sci-fi flying ships special effects are classy in good taste. Like many book adaptations, the Divergent series is turning the final book into two films. The whole film is very predictable and lacked the emotional impact for each character. However the film introduces some big ideas about whether you need to be ‘pure’ or remain damage and paction less. The film ended without any resolution to the conflict and hangs the audience for the next installment of the film.
For me the movie has always felt a bit like a second-rate Hunger Games. However teens and young adults will definitely enjoy the ride of this film.
My rating:
6 out of 10 stars ******
