A Série Divergente: Convergente

I enjoyed the hell out of this film. It had me constantly engaged and interested in the story. I like the conflict between the characters, but glad they didn't make it dramatic. My biggest problem is there are such big ideas in this movie, they needed more time to develop some of them. A few scenes here to flesh out the conflict more. I am pretty sure they didn't do it because they have to follow the currently trend right now, mindless action set pieces with very little story. I appreciate the writers and director trying to accomplish something bigger, but there were still some missing parts. I still enjoyed the movie a lot and appreciate the effort.

I had to go watch this movie series just to justify the mixed ratings I read.

Well, I have to say, In My Opinion, there was more going on in this movie that was unrealistic and slow than favorable / enjoyable moments.

So, personally, I won't hold fire against the comments that rated this movie below a 7. I actually would say they are right on target.

I have to say movie quality has certainly went down over the last 6 yrs. I'm beginning to believe many directors and movie industries are expecting movie goers will watch anything with engaging previews to suck us in and torture us with the rest of the movie being BAD.

I am a sci-fi fantasy type movie lover, loving the tech and all that stuff, however, there is a threshold as to what I enjoy watching when it comes to this type of movie genre and this movie just don't quite get there for me. Divergent followers or not, this movie fails for the length of time and plot it delivers to be enjoyable.

As stated before, I don't believe in rating movies terribly low, so I give this movie series a generous 6 without going into more details.

Thanks

Allegiant was rather disappointing considering i really enjoyed the first 2 movies. This one was very lackluster on the action and Tris character was much less involved in the plot. I hate the fact that this movie ended on a cliffhanger though. Because it has been 4 years ago and due to the bad box office this film got, there has been no real try to make a fourth and final film.

The movie takes the exact same plot, style and ideas from the first two films in the series and does absolutely nothing new with them. There is less tension, everything makes no sense, is in your face obvious and bland.

It's not even the end of the story. Remember when franchises were just trilogies? Those were the days. In fact, the series will turn into a real TV series through a fitting connection: the next film in the franchise called Ascendant, which will be a TV film.

When the film started I couldn't remember what story it was continuing. Scenes from Hunger Games and Maze Runner and bits of trailers and teasers were mixed inside my brain and somehow completely covered the entire length of the movie. I kid you not, I had the sensation that I had already seen every single scene. It was that obscenely unimaginative.

Bottom line: a complete waste of time. The Maze Runner is much better than this, even if it has almost the same exact plot.

Okay, first things first I am a realist about movies and a huge critic. If I enjoy a movie, Ill make sure it does get good feedback and this relatively goes for Allegiant.

Allegiant was a pretty good movie. The negativity is over-exaggerated, seriously over-exaggerated.

I realize that a majority of people are hauling up all this negativity because they are getting butt hurt that the film sort of strays from the book. Yes, I have read the book but seriously they barely change the plot. I only remember bits of the book since I read it a really long time ago like a year ago and there is nothing to get even remotely butt hurt over.

In summary, if you are scared this is going to be a waste of money and time, I implore you to go and see it for yourself. I went to the cinema with a low expectation of this film and by the end was questioning, what the hell these people are complaining over. Solid safe 7 out of 10. No generosity. It deserves a damn 7.

I personally enjoyed it myself and I was entertained throughout the film.
