Movie Haiku:Mumbo Jumbo set in a dystopian future where everyone lives harmoniously in one of five “factions” (with the incredibly pretentious names Abnegation, Amity, Candor, Dauntless & Erudite), until, of course, one faction decides to change the rules for its own benefit. All Jan saw was an excuse for more boring, predictable onscreen mayhem. Not yet seen by Rich.
