The Divergent Series: Insurgent (also known as Insurgent) is a 2015 science fiction adventure film directed by Robert Schwentke, based on Insurgent, the second book in the Divergent trilogy, written by Veronica Roth. It is the sequel to the 2014 film Divergent and the second installment in The Divergent Series,[4][5] produced by Lucy Fisher, Pouya Shabazian and Douglas Wick, with a screenplay by Brian Duffield, Akiva Goldsman, and Mark Bomback.[6][7] Robert Schwentke took over from Neil Burger as director, while Burger served as the executive producer of the film. Along with the first film's returning cast, the sequel features supporting actors Octavia Spencer, Naomi Watts, Suki Waterhouse, Rosa Salazar, Daniel Dae Kim, Jonny Weston, Emjay Anthony, and Keiynan Lonsdale.
The plot of Insurgent takes place three days after the previous installment and continues to follow Tris Prior; Tris and Four are on the run after evading a hostile takeover from Jeanine and the rest of Erudite. The faction system in post-apocalyptic Chicago is crumbling, and everyone is desperate for power — and answers. Filming began on May 27, 2014 in Atlanta, Georgia, before officially concluding on September 6, 2014.
The Divergent Series: Insurgent was released on March 20, 2015 in the United States in the IMAX 3D format as well as regular 3D and 2D.[8][9] Critical reaction to the film was mixed: some have considered the film to be an improvement over its predecessor, with reviewers highlighting the visual style, action sequences, and Woodley's performance, but the film still received an immense amount of negative criticism, mainly focused on the film's story-line.[10][11] The film was a commercial success, grossing over US$99 million worldwide during its opening weekend, making it attain the #1 spot at the box-office.[12]
A sequel, The Divergent Series: Allegiant – Part 1, is scheduled to be released on March 18, 2016.[13]
Plot
![]() | This section's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. (March 2015) |
Following the assault on Abnegation by Jeanine's mind-controlled Dauntless soldiers, Eric and his platoon are searching through the wreckage of Abnegation for an artifact, a box of unknown origin containing the symbols of all the factions. Upon its recovery, the box is taken to Erudite, where Jeanine claims that she believes it to contain a message from the city's founders, and the means to end the Divergent problem once and for all. However, only a Divergent can open the box, and she orders that all Divergents be hunted down and captured.
Tris, Four, Peter, and Caleb are hiding out deep in Amity territory. After Tris and Peter get into a scuffle, Johanna, the leader of the Amity faction, warns Tris that her obsession with revenge will consume her. Soon after, Eric and his fleet arrive to test all occupants for Divergence. Peter gives up the group's location as Tris, Four, and Caleb escape and board a train headed into Factionless territory. During the ensuing fight with Factionless members aboard the train, Caleb makes his first kill, and, horrified by what he has done, neglects to help Tris as she is attacked by one of the Factionless. Four reveals his true name, Tobias Eaton, to the Factionless, who reply that they have been searching for him.
They are given safe passage into the heart of Factionless, where they discover the leader of Factionless is Four's mother, Evelyn Johnson-Eaton. Evelyn suggests that Dauntless and Factionless join forces against Erudite, but the discussion becomes an argument about Evelyn's true intentions, and her past relationship with her son. The next morning the three leave Factionless for Candor to meet up with the remaining Dauntless. During the trek, Caleb tells Tris that he cannot continue with them, and goes in a different direction.
When Tris and Four arrive at Candor, they are welcomed by their Dauntless brethren, and Tris is not entirely truthful with Christina about what happened to Will. Soon, however, they are arrested and brought before Jack Kang, the leader of Candor, who cannot believe Jeanine would go so far as to fraudulently make Tris and Four wanted for crimes they did not commit. Four tries reasoning with Kang, inquiring about the fairness of a trial in Erudite as opposed to one in Candor, and then requests the trial be conducted in Candor through the use of the initiation truth serum.
During the trial, Four admits that he joined Dauntless to escape his father's abuse, and that he was going to leave Dauntless to be factionless after this last group of initiates but he saw and fell in love with Tris and decided to protect her. Tris then tearfully admits her guilt in shooting Will. This angers Christina, who was unaware that Tris was Will's killer. The Candor are attacked by the Dauntless traitors led by Eric, and many people are shot with a new simulation serum. Tris and Uriah, who is revealed to be Divergent, discover what is happening and attempt to warn the remaining Divergents, but are captured by Eric. Eric murders a man, and is preparing to murder a young girl whom Tris had saved earlier, but Tris stops him. Eric then tests Tris and discovers that Tris' Divergence is 100%, making her the perfect test subject to open the box. They are then rescued by Four and Candor, and Eric is taken into custody, where Four executes him.
In Erudite, Jeanine, frustrated that none of the Divergents that she has so far used to attempt to open the box have survived, is approached by Peter, who agrees to pledge his loyalty to Erudite, and suggests that the best way to get Tris to surrender is to play to her humanity.
Back in Factionless, Four reluctantly agrees with his mother Evelyn that war is inevitable and that they must begin preparing. The long term sim serum is activated by Jeanine, causing Marlene, Christina and Hector to stand on a ledge chanting that Tris Prior must turn herself in, or more death will follow, over and over, as they step closer and closer to the edge. Tris and Tori climb the sides as fast as they can, and rescue two of the three, but Marlene plunges to her death. Overcome by guilt, Tris decides to turn herself in. She spends the night with Four, who thinks he has changed her mind, but she leaves in the early hours as Evelyn silently looks on from a window, to turn herself in to Erudite.
The moment she steps through the Erudite screen, she is surrounded and arrested. Jeanine then subjects her to each of the sim trials of the Factions. Tris is almost killed in the process, and Jeanine reluctantly stops the sim, allowing Tris to rest in a cell with her brother Caleb, who is now working with Jeanine. Caleb tells Tris that he is being selfless by turning his only sister over to the Erudites for what he believes is the greater good. Peter, who is now the guard assigned to Tris, jabs her in the back with an injection while escorting her back to the chamber, after she discovers that Four is also captive in the facility.
Once again, Tris goes through the simulations, but before it can be completed, her vital signs drop and she appears to die. Jeanine becomes distraught for a moment, then resigned to the fact that she must once again find another Divergent. Tris's body is disconnected from the sim cables and wheeled over to Four's cell. In a vicious display of gloating, Peter shows Four Tris's lifeless body. Tris then awakens with a deep breath, and Peter assists Four in overpowering the guards, revealing that he is helping them. Peter then goes to the control room to change the security parameters in order to allow access to the sim room for Four and Tris, who now realizes what the box is and why she now needs to open it.
Tris successfully opens the box, and, much to the chagrin of Jeanine, the message inside informs everyone in the control room and testing area that they, the entire walled city, are an experiment, that the Divergents are evidence of the success of that experiment, and that the world is waiting outside for them to return to humanity. Jeanine, realizing the box and its revelation will be the undoing of her power, orders the box buried and Four and Tris immediately executed. Before this occurs, the Factionless army hits the Erudite facility, blowing the doors off the control and sim rooms. Jeanine and Caleb are arrested, and Tris is hailed as a hero by the masses, eager to explore the world beyond the wall.
As Jeanine looks out from her cell, she states that after 200 years since the city was enclosed, there is no telling what awaits them beyond it. Evelyn appears behind her, and tells her that she will never find out, before shooting Jeanine in the back of the head.

Critical response
The Divergent Series: Insurgent received mixed reviews from critics.[59] On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes the film holds a rating of a 31%, based on 144 reviews, with a rating average of 5.1/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Shailene Woodley gives it her all, but Insurgent is still a resounding step back for a franchise struggling to distinguish itself from the dystopian YA crowd."[60] At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score, the film has a score of 42 out of 100, based on 39 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[61] According to polls conducted during the opening weekend by CinemaScore, the average grade audiences gave the film was an A-, on an A+ to F scale.[62]
Many critics praised Shailene Woodley's performance, as well as some of the main cast. Writing for New England Movies Weekly Daniel M. Kimmel said, "Woodley does solid work here as she's done elsewhere, and continues to be someone to watch."[63] Susan Wloszczyna of RobertEbert.com said, "Woodley herself almost singlehandedly saves these films from being just another overwrought dystopian nightmare."[64] Some critics have considered the film to be an improvement over its predecessor, with Kevin P. Sullivan of Entertainment Weekly writing that, "Taken for what it is, Insurgent is a vast improvement over the franchise's first installment, mostly thanks to expansion in two arenas: budget and scope",[65] and Kenneth Turan of Los Angeles Times calling it, "A more effective, adult-friendly film than its predecessor."[66] However, Insurgent still received an immense amount of negative criticism; Richard Corliss of TIME said that, "With its repeat itinerary, Insurgent is less a sequel than a remake. The movie has an ordinary middle-chapter scenario, and less The Empire Strikes Back than Attack of the Clones".[67] Joe Morgenstern of the Wall Street Journal said that "Insurgent opens new horizons of repetitiveness, dramatic shapelessness, self-seriousness and a generalized oppressiveness."[68]
Tom Russo of Boston Globe gave the film a positive review, calling it, "a sequel that sticks to more routine territory of action, angst, and dystopian gloom - mostly a sound approach, thanks to the consistent strength of franchise lead Shailene Woodley and a mix of intended and inadvertent surprises."[69] Tom Long of Detroit News gave the film a B- and wrote, "The action sequences are well done, some of the visuals are spectacular, and at it's heart Insurgent is wrestling with some very basic questions about ambition and human interaction."[70] Charles Koplinski of Illinois Times called it, "Smart, Slick and Superior to its predecessor",[71] and Rich Cline of ContactMusic.com called it, "A sharp improvement on the original," and wrote "this second entry in The Divergent Series has a much stronger sense of its premise and characters."[72]
Mara Reinstein of Us Weekly gave it a 2/4, saying that there are "Trainloads of action abound (literally), but it's essentially generic combat."[73] Claudia Puig of USA Today said, "This second installment, based on Veronica Roth's series of YA novels, feels cobbled together and less focused than 2014's Divergent, and lacks tension and excitement."[74] Michael O'Sullivan of Washington Post criticized the supporting characters writing that, "many of the other characters here are, by definition, one-dimensional."[75] Sheri Linden of Hollywood Reporter said, "Even with breathless chases, strong design components and dazzling effects, the story's organizing principle -- the faction system that divides society into five groups based on personality -- grows less compelling as Insurgent proceeds."[76]
Sequels
On April 11, 2014, Summit Entertainment announced that a two-part film based on the final book in the Divergent trilogy, Allegiant, would be made. The first part, The Divergent Series: Allegiant – Part 1, will be released on March 18, 2016 while the second part, The Divergent Series: Allegiant – Part 2, on March 24, 2017.[77] On December 5, 2014, it was announced that Robert Schwentke will return to direct Part 1.[78]
