    Divergent just didn’t have the nuance, character depth or world building that the Hunger Games had and I’ll stand by that opinion. The divergent movie was a let down to tbh, the book was better. Still not as good as the hunger games tho.

      Is the book version of the conspiracy better? I watched the first movie and thought that the supposedly smart caste was pretty braindead.

        It seemed like the entire setup was pretty braindead honestly.

        Entertaining enough, but nowhere near plausible enough to really get invested in the story.

        Same with Hunger Games, honestly.
