Rating: 7/10
Incredible special effects, though the story seemed a bit thin. I have never read the books and I don't give a rat's ass about how faithful the movies are to them or not. I want to enjoy movies as standalone mediums, not always tied with an umbilical cord to that from which they sprang.
My favorite part of the movie was Four, hands down. I adore Theo James, he's pretty, sweet and a great actor. And Four is simply amazing. His kick-ass yet thoughtful attitude, his love for Tris. And I was fascinated by his ( spoiler! ) I really need to know more about their relationship, I would've liked to see it explored more deeply. I hope we get more than a glimpse of that in the next 2 movies - since they are splitting the last book in two like many other series, I hope the story will focus on this bit, too. It's the most fascinating part of the movie, maybe even the series, IMHO. Also, HIS TATTOO, it's amazing! ♥_♥
Second best part? Tris and Four and their relationship. I just adore how much they love each other. Yeah, I'm romantic at heart, from time to time :P
