'Divergent': More post-apocalyptic teen agnst........

Despite the critics this, to me, was far better than 'The Hunger Games' and vampire franchises. The story was more 'believable', better organized, and the characters a tad more developed. Suspension of disbelief wasn't overworked and there wasn't a lot of call for overblown CGI.

Shailene Woodley is on a roll to be such an ordinary looking girl and she was surrounded by a cast of "pretty people". As she makes a life's choice within the community she finds that her "divergence" may cost her her life.

This is no more an adult film than "hunger" and "vampires". If you go take your daughter or niece as cover.
