"Insurgent" - the 2nd part of the Divergent trilogy features our heroine, Tris, trying to make sense of the aftermath from the first film, and being on the run and in hiding with the compliant Amity group for a while.
It's an odd follow-up, with Tris and 4 looking for forces to overthrow the Erudite faction, but a mysterious box from Tris's mother puts into motion a heightened man-hunt for divergents who might be capable of locking the box's secrets.
I find the mindgames/sims of this series of movies to border on the boring side with a lot of footage feeling like watching "tests" play out on a holodeck of sorts, and it doesn't quite capture my imagination nor hold my attention for long.
I give it 2.5 stars, or a grade of C+.
