Movie review: Insurgent

STAR 1/2

The Pitch Review

DIRECTOR: [Yawning] okay...geez...why is there so much needless drama in this again?
PRODUCER: [yawning] Oh. Right. The drama...[yawning again] because our audience is predominantly teenage girls.
WRITER & DIRECTOR: (simultaneously) Hamster bladder! 
PRODUCER: Precisely. They won't miss too much when they get up in clans to drain the hamster bladders. Like a soap opera. Pauses and transitions kind of like that. You know, lame unnecessarily necessary drama. 
WRITER: Don't forget to film an awkward shirtless kissing scene. Not too much heat- throw it on even if the actors aren't comfortable with it. 
DIRECTOR: [yawning] sorry, dude, yawns are contagious...it's not the bad story, or painful editing potential, or strained acting we're in for...mostly...
WRITER: Shut up, Director. [yawning]
