Last year, when I saw Divergent, I compared it
to The
Hunger Games, saying it was a darker, bleaker version of that
film.
The sequel, Insurgent, also, must be compared to
The
Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1. But,
this time, Insurgent wins out.
While The Hunger Games sequel was a
disappointingly lifeless trailer for the upcoming Mockingjay Part 2, Insurgent
is a thrilling action film that stands on its own.
Action Director Robert Schwentke was supported by a great
team of writers, including Mark Bombard and Akiva Goldsman along with the
fabulous Cinematographer Florian Ballhaus.
All were up to their best.
Fans of the Veronica Roth novels should be overjoyed with
this production. I give Insurgent
a 4+ out of 5.
