Hey guys! I have just arrived back at my house from the movie Divergent which came out two days ago. I originally read the book, which was written by Veronica Roth, for the first time last summer while working at a summer camp, and I rather enjoyed it. The book was so intense and interesting, I literally finished reading it after two hours. When I found out there was going to be a movie, I got excited. Would this series be the next Harry Potter? The next Twilight (even though, let's face it, those movies were kind of a failure)?
Seeing this movie tonight, I made my mind up about one thing, NO ONE SHOULD WATCH THIS IF THEY'VE READ THE BOOK. At least if you're like me. I get incredibly angry when movies change important parts of a book (Percy Jackson, anyone?) and that's exactly what this movie did. I won't spoil anything for people who haven't read the book or watched the movie but all I can say is that the movie company got it all WRONG.
BUT, and yes there is a but, I do recommend seeing this movie if you haven't read the books. It actually was quite entertaining and was a very good watch.
