My review of Insurgent can be found at the Third Way Cafe website: http://www.thirdway.com/MM/?Page=8146_The+Divergent+Series{81a086e50adc416cb06a533df9c9a0c5cefc9698f6906c0f4cbe2e77960b337a}3A+InsurgentWhile this series continues to provide some thought-provoking ideas, the second film is a step down from the first (which was no classic). Apparently the screenplay diverges from the novel in many places, even in the central focus of Insurgent’s plot. Since I am told the novel was poorly written, this is no cause for complaint, but the screenplay is the weakest part of this film, which features some of the stupidest scenes I have seen in a long time (in fairness, I generally stay away from silly action films aimed at the young). Insurgent gets **+. My mug is down. Read entire story.
