The 3rd installment of the divergent series is all about the end of the prior film. Is there anyone outside the wall? Should we go and who decides? If there are those outside the wall that are still alive what do they want from us? Is it a good thing? Are those outside lying? This movie does a lot to make you consider in terms of your world is based on your environment. If you don't look outside your normal day to day life you will have a very narrow view of the world you live in. People who seem to be honest and have your best interests at heart are just trying to get something from you or further there own ambitions of power. No, the movie is very left untied at the end it was as if the production company had their sights on making Allegiant a 2 film ending. Unfortunately, the film didn't get great reviews which caused the next film to be cut. Funny, but now was the time to watch the film because the storyline is more about how your point of view is shaped based on your environment. So many of us don't look outside of our News Media that we watch normally and the writers that we read to consider the world may be much different that we may think. It's very warped from reality.... but your reality is your reality.... but isn't it better to see the world as it is?

SPOILER ALERT I loved the story to this movie but none of it was the same as this movie. I loved reading this series and getting captured by the story, but I was majorly disappointed in this movie. I mean, was Tris's death not important enough to put in the movie? I expected much more.

I hate that they changed the ending from the book, but I thought it was well done. It's not my favorite of the series, as it does slightly lag in action, but it is still good. The actors and actresses did a wonderful job with expressing the emotion that the book described, as well as showing what the characters themselves would feel in those positions.

If there was a case for young adult adaptation are all the same and blend together then Allegiant can be used as evidence, borrowing elements from The Hunger Games and Maze Runner series.After the events of Insurgent the faction system has broken down after the people have found out that Chicago was no more than an experiment. Tris (Shailene Woodley) wants to see the outside world and together with her boyfriend, Four (Theo Jones), brother Caleb (Ansel Elgort), friends Christina (Zoe Kravitz), Tori (Maggie Q) and Peter (Miles Teller - the term friend is being used very loosely) go over the wall and discover a civilisation of scientific advance people lead by David (Jeff Daniels) who explains how the world felt into chaos and why Tris is so special. But, David has his own motives.I had a soft spot for the Divergent series until now: the first two films were solid films for their target audience and had some fun trippy Inception style scenes in the mindscape. Yet the good will that the series has built has spent and Allegiant used ideas from Mockingjay and The Maze Runner sequels, that people secretly exist beyond the world and they are not to be trusted whilst the desert landscape is like the one in The Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials, just with much worst CGI.Allegiant even rips off the previous films in the series. The climax is similar to what happened in the first two films, the heroes have to break into the central governmental building to stop the villain's scheme and free either friends or family. Insurgent was able to get away with this because there was enough of a different because Tris was stuck in the dreamscape to open mystery box.Allegiant relies on the characters to be idiots for the plot to continue, especially Tris who should have been more sceptical of the mysterious people who have been watching Chicago, not less. She was both the chosen saviour who had enhanced instincts yet also be incredibly gullible.The relief in Allegiant is the world fell apart was humanity split between genetically enhanced people and regular people. Basically it was a cross between Gattaca, X-Men and the Animatrix short The Second Renaissance. Humanity split into factions because the genetically enhanced got corrupted, making some virtues greater at the expense of others, making them 'damaged'. Tris is told she's the cure for the 'damaged' and like the kids in the Maze Runner series being the cure for the zombie outbreak. Even for a sci-fi film this is a stretch and Allegiant does not mitigate the criticism the series has suffered that the faction system doesn't make any sense: if anything the revelation makes the concept harder to swallow.Allegiant shows that the Divergent film series has run its course. It has run out of ideas and the low Rotten Tomatoes score and box office returns has put paid to the idea that there would be a sequel: although there would be a sense of schadenfreude to see big- name and emerging actors forced to appear in a TV movie.
