    The Hunger Games inspired me to watch this film and I was not disappointed. I just found the idea of segregating different people based on personality really interesting and it was cool to see the negative consequences of having a society built like that. Enjoy :)

    Fun fact: I was an extra in this movie. The choosing ceremony scene--it was so hot in there that people were passing out. We were filming in the beginning of July and there was no AC and the first day we weren't allowed water. The next day they let us have water, though. And I was Abnegation. You can only see me for .000000001 of a second and you have to really be looking, but it was a fun experience anyway. And I'm still in awe that I got to see Kate Winslet working. She's a treasure.

    the scene with everyone eating after they chose their new factions, in the books Tris says, "Must be because you're so approachable, like a bed of nails." and Chris says that Tris must have a death wish. I love the books and its sad to say that we will never get a story resolution because the last movie was canceled.

      Was looking for this comment. I had no idea about this when I watched the three of them about a year ago, and was quite confused when the third movie ended, knowing it was the last one. So I did some quick Googling, and actually got a bit pissed off that the whole thing just got scrapped before the end.
      For me, that took the rating down on all three of them. Because however exciting they might have been, there's no ending to them!!

    • @TheMoviePlanet
      @TheMoviePlanet 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      The 4th movie they wanted to do wouldn't have adapted any book though as however loosely they were adapting it, they finished adapting the third novel in the third film. This isn't a case of splitting the final book in two films with only the first being made like a lot of people report it.

    • @alfaramadhan3573
      @alfaramadhan3573 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      i heard they stripped all the backstory of the third book except that one flashback, to loosely adapted it into a new story, which is why it's called Ascendant. Cool idea though, if only they made a good third movie. but also stripping all that story from the movie basically made the movie kinda lifeless for me. I dont oppose changing from the source material as long as the main spirit still in there. But cutting all the story beat and making one action movie (Yes, i don't feel there's any story in there, just action pieces), it's not the way. Escpecially considering this movie has a really good emotional story.

      The entire point of the series is that a few certain special people get to be more than one thing. In reality, the vast majority of people would be divergent, so this Faction system doesn't seem believable as a post apocalyptic future at all, unless something dramatic happened to the human genome to make them far simpler than they should be.

    Shailene Woodley ('Tris') and Miles Teller ('Peter') played a couple in 'The Spectacular Now' (a great coming of age drama, 2013). As for Ansel Elgort ('Caleb'), he and Shailene played a couple in 'The Fault in Our Stars' (2014) - an instant classic based on the popular John Green book. You should watch the latter, it's really good, and it's a well known film. It earned $307.2 million in the box office, against a production budget of $12 million.

Older than Hunger Games, we have the novels The Giver (1993) City of Ember (2003), Ender's Game (1985) -- all of which have been made into movies. There are other novels as well but not all have been made into movies so I won't put them here.

    @NoelleMar 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    At the beginning of this reaction, but I remember thinking it sounded like the silliest idea since everyone is “Divergent.” But when I saw the movie, the way everyone accepted this as normal made me assume they were “not quite human,” as in this is a dystopian world where humans have been slightly altered.
    Because otherwise, their acceptance of the status quo was very human, more like many societies and groups than the Hunger Game movies (haven’t read the books). Reminds me of other various sci fi and dystopian scenarios. A lot of people consider these movie to be very simplistic, stupid, and nonsensical.
    I only saw the first two, but I see them as more symbolic and psychologically realistic in ways most movies, certainly of its kind, aren’t. And also complex and difficult when it comes to making decisions (which a lot of viewers DON’T like, even if they claim to like “complicated” characters).
    As you say, digging up dirt from the past can be good, but it also can be bad. I think in general it’s good, but it can be misconstrued, untrue, or used to further even more nefarious agendas. And in this, there are a lot of genuinely hard situations that are more true to life. Many people who are cruel do not turn around once they “get to know you.” Some are only cruel TO those they know. That idea is hopeful but often victim-blaming; that it really is about how “special” the victim is vs the perpetrator’s problem.

      Yes, you're right. I can't remember if the movies got far enough to mention this, but the idea of the world is that most of the population is faulty and that the divergents were the actual goal - to bring back balance. But then these segregated societies started attacking the divergents instead of embracing them, therefore leading to the mess in the books/films.

    So glad that you're diving into this trilogy. I'm probably one of few that actually like all three movies. This first movie is the closest to the book. But I really enjoy all three movies and books.
    6:59 You are correct! The movie that they were in together was "The Fault in Our Stars".
    I keep forgetting that that's Ray Stevenson that plays Four's father Marcus. I've been so used to seeing him in the first three "Thor" movies and "Ahsoka".
    Fun Fact: Kate Winslet was pregnant at the time of filming. That's why most of her scenes are filmed from the waist up, or she has something in front of her stomach.
    Can't wait for "The Divergent Series: Insurgent" next.

    1:03- No you don't, trust me, nobody wants to be controlled by a government like that.
    7:04- That's The Fault in Our Stars, which is fantastic. I cried watching it.
    42:51- I've never seen the sequels, but I've heard they aren't as strong as the first film. Which is really unfortunate.

    I loved the books (until the end 😠), and seeing the first movie in the theater was so enjoyable. I rewatch Divergent often, usually just for the zip line scene, which never fails to give me chills. 🥰

    The second film is great, too. The third, not so much. I don’t agree that Divergent got inspiration from Harry Potter or Hunger Games. They all came out about at the same time. The books were released, more or less, about the same time.
    I LOVE THIS FILM!!! When I am under a lot of stress I watch this film. I don’t know why, but it above all other movies, takes me out of my world. Maybe it’s looking at Theo James! 🤤 no, I love Shailene Woodley’s acting. The movie she did with Ansel Elgort is
    “The Fault in Our Stars”. I strongly suggest that film… and I strongly suggest you have a box of tissues! Their chemistry together works so well. Please watch that!

    The thing about this setting that doesn't make sense is that most people would be divergent, because hardly anyone is just one thing. Unlike the HP houses, you can't be in one faction and show defining traits from another, which is bs. At least in Harry Potter, you can be smart and brave and kind, regardless of your house. Here, if you're abnegation, you cannot behave in a highly intelligent or brave way, or there's something wrong with you, which just doesn't hold true for most people.

    Reading this book and the companion series Four, will give you a better appreciation of the society.
    This is the best movie of the series and the best book of the series.
    I recommend skipping the rest of the series as far as the movies are concerned. Of course I did the Divergent books first and then watched the movies.

    The mom dies so fast from just a shot in the side of the abdomen that it seems sped up for drama, yet it really isn't. One of my dad's brothers got shot from behind in the same area, & the doctors said he really was in the less than .5% of people shot there that have no major blood loss. The organs there have large arteries carrying lots of blood, especially the liver & kidneys. It doesn't take much of an injury to bleed out fast. So fast that it's not even low oxygen in the brain or heart muscle but just bottomed-out blood pressure that causes death before even the fastest ambulance can get to you.
    The doctors said it really was a miracle the path the bullet went through my uncle's body. He had minor injuries only, the bullet went through at just the right angle that his liver, spine & more got just a slight grazing & no actual punctures on those vital organs. His intestines were what got damaged the most & even that was clean unjuries. The worst part for his health was digestive fluids leaking out internally. Even with the surgeries to stitch the bullet wounds up & vacuum out the leaked fluids, he only needed a small amount of blood given. Now I think of my uncle every time I see a scene like that in a movie.

    I don’t like when we people see that things are story where they separate people into groups and say it’s Hunger Games. Separation is based on personality in this story. And there is no competition in it. So what’s the same besides having groups? You can’t even say the antagonist was the same because there has to be an antagonist. Every story has one. Continue the series.

    Every criticism you made about Trish -- especially her immaturity -- is why I didn't like the book and never read the sequels. I watched the first movie because I fell in love with the character of Four. I watched the subsequent movies just to follow his story. I never cared for her and was never invested in her fate -- as I was with Katniss and Thomas.

    From what I remember, the 2nd movie is ok, but I really wished I hadn't seen the 3rd one.

    The movies completely missed the point of the books. Beatrice superpower was her ability to see through everything to the truth and to have a really amazing ethical compuss. The books take her on this journey of dealing with fear and issues about human nature. First, something is wrong because she is divergent and she is to be feared. Then something is wrong with others because they arent. In both cases a system was based on that belief. She sees both as wrong and sacrifices herself for the truth, that people arent just one thing and their blood does not determine their worth. The movies miss the point and in avoiding her sacrifice gut it.

  • @bodilhov9722

    It needs to be said, from a book perspective this is the only worthwhile movie to watch. For the second movie they strayed a lot from the original story, even changing some main plot points needlessly. The third movie is complete bs, it starts with the first chapter of the third book, but then goes on to create some weird, alternate storyline without touching the rest of the book at all. Huge mistake, which was pretty evident judging by the critics, as well as why there never became a "part 2" of that last book. Unfortunate, since the books are all great.

    I read this series a long time ago. I don't remember any differences because I only read the books once. Which is basically the same as saying I didn't like the series. But you can also conclude that I liked it until the end because I read them all. I won't tell you why I didn't like the series because that is a spoiler. I'll just say I didn't like the end. For me if a series ends badly, it ruins the whole thing. I wasn't going to watch these ones, but I ran out of things to watch, and I do like your reactions, so I decided to go ahead. I liked this book and as far as I can remember the details it's a good adaptation so why not, right?

    The big different ending triologie between this (a open ending)& the other triologies like this is, that the Mainchara here not will Servive cos she will die a realy herodeath for all the others !!!!
    (But just in the boots, cors the movie broke up on the brake of the mittle of the final fight) , cos the mainacter did't want no more & so they finished the final movie in the half without anpther one after it, so it gives just a open ending !!!!
    ☆So for knowing how her last fight realy ends, please finish it with reading the 3.book after watching the last movie !!!!☆^^
    + intressting too the 4th book about fours(tobias) background Story +the backgroundstorys of his & hers families + more background about the factions ,how he was come to the dauntless & seeing the enier Story with his eyes,what he was thinking about Tris and all this^^.

    So the movies, like the books, actually get progressively much worse. The second book/movie is just "meh" and then the third is just straight up awful. I understand wanting to finish the series out of curiosity, I just don't want you to go in with high expectations because those movies will not meet them, and neither will the books.
