HToipnixd sStiagrhst ODafil yH Bisantoanrays This is a spoiler-free review of Allegiant, but it does contain plot details from the previous two Divergent films, so if you're not up to date, proceed with caution. It's that time of year again. It may still be stomping around in the too-big shoes of the Hunger Games movies, but The Divergent Series: Allegiant marks the third of four instalments in the series of movies based on Veronica Roth's trilogy of novels.

Having discovered at the end of the previous film that the city is directing a standalone movie the subject of an elaborate social experiment, the divergent Tris (Shailene Woodley) and her beau Ben Affleck admits that a standalone Four (Theo James) are eager to go out and rejoin humanity. However, the despotic Jeanine (Kate Batman movie is in the works at Winslet in the previous two films) has been replaced by Four's mother, Evelyn, who is enjoying Warner Bros - and leaves the door open to directing it... popular support in the honeymoon of her own fascist dictatorship and forbids anyone going beyond the wall.

Director Robert Schwentke returns for this one and Children... continues what has been a gruelling and very gradual incline in quality over the course of the series so far. Over two films, the far-fetched futuristic trials have gone from looking like ITV's The Cube to looking a bit more like The Matrix, thanks to the success of the first film and an up-tick in the sequel's budget. The visual and thematic influences here are more diverse - it goes from Logan's Run to The Truman Show inside half an hour. Some of the most impressively realised sequences in the film take place in the space between the two sites where the story is really taking place, in the burnt orange wasteland where the mix of arid devastation and futuristic aircraft looks like nothing so much as Mad Max on Gallifrey. Although there's still some dodgy CGI and it's never in danger of doing anything original, it's still more exhilarating and better told than the previous exposition-heavy instalments. While the dramatic shifts in tone between films have made the series a more interesting proposition than it ought to be, we haven't really followed the characters through in a way where we care for them. The series' biggest recurring problem is that it always feels like they're underusing Shailene Woodley, even though she's the protagonist. Like Kristen Stewart in Twilight, she feels miscast, but she's already doing other better projects while coming back to spin her Hot Topics wheels as Tris once a year.
