INSURGENT

Plot:

Trice (Woodley) and Four (James) having escaped the stronghold of the command of the power thirsty Jeanine (Winslet) are now fugitives being hunted by Max (Phifer), Eric (Courtney) and their soldiers to be captured so that Jeanine can utilize Trice's Divergent powers to open a mysterious box. But while seeking refuge with the other factions Trice must also try dealing with the nightmares that haunt her regarding the death of her parents along with realizing that Four's mother who was once thought to be dead is alive and now running a rebel group that is looking for the opportunity to overthrow Jeanine's organization.


Reel Talk:

Insurgent is the 2nd installment to the 2014 Divergent movie starring the same cast members. Having not being impressed with the first movie my expectations were not that high for this one and I wasn't off the mark. Although this one gave a touch more action than it's predecessor it was probably less amusing because of the erratic story. There were too many holes in the plot that left a lot of unexplained questions. This is strictly for die hard Divergent and Hunger Game fans otherwise you may be be disappointed also. Pay for this one at your own risk!

I give it 2 and a half eaten corn dogs.
