Divergent [2014 film]

A dystopian society maintains order by eliminating people who don't conform.

Painless. There's nothing good in it that isn't shamelessly stolen from Hunger Games, and there's nothing original in it that isn't nonsense. But they made a pretty okay movie, considering what they had to work with.

FROM AMAZON: BASED ON VERONICA ROTH'S BOOK, DIVERGENT: For sixteen-year-old Tris, the world changes in a heartbeat when she is forced to make a terrible choice. Turning her back on her family, Tris ventures out, alone, determined to find out where she truly belongs.

Shocked by the brutality of her new life, Tris can trust no one. And yet she is drawn to a boy who seems to both threaten and protect her. The hardest choices may yet lie ahead….

En un mundo distópico en el que la sociedad se divide en cinco categorías (Verdad, Abnegación, Osadía, Cordialidad y Erudición), los jóvenes deben elegir, atendiendo a sus virtudes personales más destacadas, a qué facción pertenecer. Beatrice sorprende a los suyos con su decisión, pero ella no es como los demás: guarda un secreto del que podría depender el orden social e incluso su propia vida. (FILMAFFINITY)
