Blew my expectations out of the water

Rating: 10/10 (20 March 2014)

Seeing as how most adaptations of teen novels are rather horrible, I tried to keep my expectations low. I just knew that it wouldn't be as good as Hunger Games... Boy was I wrong!
From the beginning till the end I was hooked. I found the pacing just fine. The people who complain about it being too slow are just folks who want every movie to be action all the time. The movie has plenty of action, but it also has humor, romance, drama, philosophy, and just general dystopian ingredients.
The actors were phenomenal, the music --- well, I for one am getting the sound track, the story is very relevant to our surveillance society, and the pacing of the story and editing was just perfect.
Along with Hunger Games, this has to be the best teen dystopian story on screen. I give it a 10, not because I think there were too many negative reviews, but because it frankly deserves a 10.
