    Briefing; this movie is just bad. The first was not good either but this one continues the path open by the first. The special effects are quite noticeably rendered by computers and the actors are uncharismatic, other than that, the plot is just bad. Another movie with quasi-teenager lead roles in a dystopic future in which stupidity is spread all along man-kind. We just witness the struggle of our heroine with her …

Some people claim that this movie do not follow the books but, obviously, I cannot comment on that. So my review is based on the movie and the movie alone.

    After their initial "Divergent" experience, the gang are still trying to stay one step ahead of the pursuing "Janine" (Kate Winslet) and this makes for perilous times for "Tris" (Shailene Woodley) and her two hunky sidekicks - brother "Caleb" (Ansel Elgort) and lover "Four" (Theo James).

    > The mystery box and the power hungry leaders! This is not a bad sequel, I quite enjoyed it, but I think I liked 'Divergent' better. The story continued a very short after where it ended in the first. In this part, it was all about power hungry where many try to get that top post. On the other side, there will be an attempt to open a mystery box that found which might reveal some important detail about them. Looked …

How this was made: an AI model (deepseek-v4-flash) read 34 of the 43 public posts we collected about this film and wrote the summary, likes and dislikes, citing the posts behind each point ([n] opens the post). A second AI pass checked every statement against the posts it cites; anything it could not match was removed, and code removed any statement with quotation marks, numbers that are not in the posts, or unattributed claims about people. The split is counted from the posts’ own ratings. Generated Oct 12, 2026. Method

Critics, per Wikipedia

Insurgent earned $130.2 million in North America, and $166.8 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $297 million. Insurgent made less in North America in comparison to Divergent with $130 million over $150 million but more worldwide with $297 million over $288 million partially due to a 3D conversion. The Divergent Series: Insurgent earned $4.1 million from Thursday late night shows, which is lower than its predecessor's $4.9 million late night gross. It opened Friday, March 20, 2015, across 3,875 theaters, and earned $21.3 million, which was lower than its predecessor's opening day of $22.8 million. In total, it earned $52,263,680 for its debut weekend, finishing first at…

    I’ve spent so much time with Paul and of course I’ve learned over and over again that Paul’s favorite Bowie’s era was ‘Ziggy Stardust’. He once owned ‘Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars’ film on video and that was something Dave Insurgent and him would play religiously. /1

    Jeanine’s witch hunt, maybe a bit too convenient. However, it keeps the movie going at a steady pace with clear stakes, unlike the original’s uneven pacing. While the climax of Insurgent came too late to make that movie more exciting on the whole, the repercussions of it cast a shadow over

    Considering he's basically a movie version of Anton gruber, I'm calling him a mastermind tactician. But I could be convinced that he's an Insurgent (since both versions are terrorists and ... you get it). Karl seems like a lower level shadow to me and his brother is probably a minion tactician.

    Watching the movie “Insurgent.” All these dystopian stories are the same. They literally spell out how cruel takeovers happen. In this case, at the beginning of the movie, they warn the “peacekeeper” that the facility is not safe as nothing will stop the woman who wants power. Sound familiar?

    Insurgent is a decent follow-up in the Divergent series, keeping up the action and world-building while introducing new conflicts. The plot moves at a solid pace, but it sometimes feels like it’s setting up something bigger without fully delivering on it. There’s a clear act structure, but some moments lack the depth needed to really hit. Certain character arcs, especially in terms of growth and decision-making, feel a bit underdeveloped, which makes some story beats feel forced rather than…
