The maze runner: The scorch Trials review
My Rating: 5/10
IMDb Rating: 6.5 Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 49% Metacritics Rating: 43/100 My Favorite Quotes 1. "Hope is a dangerous thing." - Brenda I Dunno I mean after watching the first film I really enjoyed it and all the mystery that was entangled in that maze and beyond it. The same feeling was present at the beginning of this film with teens being engaged in a facility and taken away each day. Unfortunately this sense of not knowing disappears quite quickly after they leave the facility and search for some people called the mountain men in hopes of a rebellion. To one day hopefully defeat this cruel and unfair government. In the scorch trials there is some virus of zombie like creatures that crave flesh and are created from past humans. Hipster much. There is walking, walking, explosions, zombie chase, and more walking than a large battle royale in the final scene. It was just not very creative and quite cliche. ***Spoiler*** what I do not understand is why the girl turns to the bad side? It makes no sense and her motive is not revealed its just a 5 year old motive "because I want to". Overall it was a typical teen flick that you see everyday. For a bunch of young teens they were very strong actors and they kept you intrigued especially in the drug house scene. I also thought the CGI was top notch and should be nominated. I was still disappointed. And I will probably not watch the third film in theaters. |
