There's little substance and little depth, but Woodley, with her preternatural poise, offers a worthy simulation of drama.
Richard Brody, New Yorker
Rotten
Insurgent is far too long for the minimal plot it encapsulates, features little in the way of meaningful character development, and is riddled with instances of poorly conceived, contrived developments.

Rotten
The final Divergent book will be split into two movies, a future that is indeed a little dystopian. Much brighter, though, are the blossoming careers of Woodley and Teller.

Insurgent is not a very good movie, but it's better than it needs to be.
