Review of Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials (2015) by Xan_Ryil — 02 Dec 2015
Where first movie was likeable because of it's wild and raw nature, Scorch Trial leaves those specs behind and join Divergent and Hunger Games which to the great extent loses all the charms. Movie makers are only trying to milk this new cash cow which is based on young adult dystopian universe but how much could it work.
Also another cheap trick is to cast Game of Thrones actors to get an extra audience but could it really work to see an actor play highly techno role (although without any importance) whom you have seen in cloak and pre-historic era.
Scorch does not clarifies what is the object of the kids running, I was left amazed at the selfishness of the character. What is wrong in sacrificing yourself to find a cure. And a little background, why were those all kept in Maze in previous movie, to find out what ?if they are immune? how would have it worked.
Dylan O'Brien should be considered for Golden Raspberry Award for his terrible performance. Overall movie is a way down and very dull.
