Rating: 3/10 (22 March 2014)

I felt like the movie deviated too far from the original story. The main plot was the same but the way the book introduces the conflict is much more interestingly done. In addition the age gap between the main characters, Tris and Tobias (Four), seems a bit off. Just a few missed scenes and minor details, I would have liked a more realistic transition into Tris and Tobias' relationship, as it seemed a bit abrupt and confusing. The original book focused a bit more on Tris' evolution from her original faction to Dauntless, this gave the character more depth in my opinion. I would have also liked to see more about Tris and her friends (maybe an intro to Uriah or some of the other dauntless-born initiates would have been nice). For someone who has not read the original novels this is an interesting movie and would be very enjoyable. I would recommend those who have NOT read the books to see the movie.
