The Divergent Series: Insurgent

Which Oscar winner will be murdered execution-style next?

My one takeaway from Insurgent is the large amount of shocking violence. Even without blood, execution style murder (gun to back of the head in most cases) committed by the good guys is quite strange. The fact that it happens in a movie that’s so lifeless, ugly and directionless is even more weird. But maybe it’s all part of the plot. Turns out, according to a late-film hologram, that inciting a high body count internal war means that humanity has matured. Uh, OK. I’m sure it all gets cleared up in part 3.
