Did they even read the book? What is wrong with one of the main characters?

Rating: 7/10 (28 December 2014)

They did little if not nothing in order to develop the characters, I felt like the only development that happened was Gally turning from angry to half insane. Where do I start about Teresa?.... I felt as if she wasn't even there the majority of the time. In the book Thomas cries over chuck because they were friends, in the movie it didn't even look like Thomas liked chuck. It was just too fast paced. This movie would of done better if they split the first book into two parts, they needed to focus on character development. In the book they went threw meetings where Thomas was the become the Keeper of the runners, not just a runner. Why were so many of the important parts cut out. I enjoyed the second book a lot more then the first, but even if that is the case here I still can't see the second movie being a big hit. Major spoilers here but without Teresa and Thomas feeling connected and having character development the second movie can't even try to compare to the book as it is a major factor in the second trial. The acting, the actors themselves didn't do a terrible job as whoever wrote their script did. I see many people talking of how there was no sense of sexual desire between any of the boys and Teresa, the reason why is because there doesn't need too. There wasn't any in the books and there doesn't need to be in the movie.
TL:DR No Character Development, Bad Lines (Highschool student who sucks at writing, but loves reading, I couldn't wait for the movie, then I saw it)
