Review by: Manisha Lakhe - NOWRUNNING
The third and the final film of the Divergent series comes after so long, you actually have to Google the first two films. Then the heroine of the film Tris does nothing, nothing in the film that endears her to you. You watch the pointlessness of the apocalyptic world slowly and double check Google to find out if there are any more sequels planned and thank the gods there isn't.

Review by: Udita Jhunjhunwala - Livemint
The series has seen a steady decline from the surprisingly palatable opener, Divergent, with its political metaphors so smoothly handled. It became clunkier with subsequent chapters, losing Tris’ timbre as the feisty messiah figure.After Insurgent, I have forgotten what for, and by the end of Allegiant, I could not care less.

Review by: Robbie Collin - The Telegraph
Like the earlier Divergent films, Allegiant is studded with enticing science-fiction ideas, but it keeps such a poker-straight face while presenting them, you often can’t help but crack up. Allegiant feels twitchily uncomfortable in its own skin. It’s the pine needles in your socks of young-adult franchises.

Review by: Johnson Thomas - Mid Day
'Allegiant' does recapture the original film's sense of 'gamey' one-upmanship but it's also a little too repetitive to be exciting. The action is well-crafted but it's not all that unique either. There's tension in the foreplay too which keeps you reasonably absorbed but questions remain.

Review by: Henry Barnes - The Guardian
The penultimate part of the Divergent franchise combines a weak plot with dull action and unappealing leads. All types of people will find something that irks them in the penultimate part of the Divergent frAllegiant spins in place, waiting for next year’s Ascendent to come along and offer resolution. In all candour: you can do without it.

Review by: Mihir Fadnavis - Firstpost
With The Divergent Series: Allegiant being the first half of the finale, it looks like this custom will finally come to an end, and the Young Adult post apocalyptic fiction genre itself is at its last breath. Not only is the film a poorly conceived cash grab but a dour, dull and slow crawl towards establishing next year’s final-final movie.
