Continuity mistake: At the choosing ceremony, people cut themselves on the hand and put it in the bowl of each section they want to join. However, when Tris chooses Dauntless, the bowls look clean and the knife is clean. There hasn't been enough time to wash them.

9.4/10. I enjoyed both the movie and book. Granted I was 29 when it came out but it got my attention. I found it better than The Hunger Games and far superior to Twilight. It's never dull, the cast is fine mainly Woodley and Winslet who I viewed as maybe like Hamlet and his uncle Claudius. One's troubled, the other is power hungry and corrupt to the core. A pretty good kick off to the franchise.
Question: Before Tris went on the zip line, why didn't anybody tell her there would be obstacles in her way that could have killed her if she didn't avoid them?
Answer: That and they do crazy stuff like this all the time so not telling her about these obstacles is keeping in character as they leap into everything seemingly blindly.

Answer: There aren't really obstacles. On a zip wire, there isn't really much scope for manoeuvrability. You follow the wire.
