good acting - bad writing

Rating: 5/10 (22 July 2014)

The film itself is not bad, but it is just too predictable. I don't mind predictable films, but this one just got boring. You know way too soon who's the bad guy, who's the bad girl, who's the good guy and the good girl, who's going to fall in love, who will die and how the film would end. The story line is also not quite original, and there was one funny line in the whole movie.
It reminded me a lot of Hunger games, probably because you have yet again the shy, scared pretty girl who turns out to exceed all expectations.
That her mother was a divergent as well could also be guessed way too soon.
in conclusion: not a bad idea, but predictability made it quite boring.
