*No plot give aways in this post*
I saw Divergent last night.
It was ok. Mostly unknown actors. The movie's selling points were Ashley Judd and Kate Winslett.
It wasn't really anything like I thought it would be.
It didn't do a very good job in explaining what "Divergent" was. The one part early on where they almost mention it, was rushed and mumbled in about 30 seconds, and you were left hanging with the thought of "What?!"
You really don't find out what Divergent is until about 3/4 way into the movie, and even then you are left confused. Later they give you a bit more information about it. And it isn't until almost the end you find out why "Divergent" is a bad thing.
There was lots of action. No sex or nudity scenes. But there was lots of shooting; though you don't see any graphic deaths. So really, not much on screen blood and gore despite people being killed.
Ashley Judd really didn't have a huge part in the movie, and it was odd seeing Kate Winslett cast into a role such as the one she played. Though she did play it well.
If you are looking for male hotness! Plenty of on screen hotness where Theo James is concerned. Until this movie I'd never heard of him. He kind of had an Elvis broodiness about him and you weren't really sure about his character's alliance for a good part of the movie, which added to his mystique.
The movie moved rather slowly for the first half, and then it picked up the pace.
I'd give it about 3 stars if I was officially rating this.
