That word "sequel" should connote a progression of sorts, but no. Like a forgettable SyFy channel series masquerading as a blockbuster film, Insurgent is simply a dull and uninteresting sequel. But like clockwork, every slight turn for the better is quickly overwhelmed by extreme boredom. There are some decent scifi elements and even a couple of mildly intriguing moments. Ironically, the film Insurgent, a faded photocopy of other teen- scifi-dramas, doesn't have a single unique bone in its body. The word "insurgent" means to actively revolt, implying some distinctiveness that sets its participants apart from the norm.
