In dit tweede deel van de epische Maze Runner saga krijgen Thomas en de andere Gladers te maken met hun grootste uitdaging tot nu toe: het zoeken naar aanwijzingen over de geheimzinnige en machtige organisatie WCKD. De tocht voert ze naar de Scorch, een troosteloos landschap met onvoorstelbare en gevaarlijke hindernissen. Samen met het verzet binden de Gladers de strijd aan met de superieure kracht van WCKD en ontdekken zij dat de organisatie een schokkend plan voor hen in petto heeft. (20th Century Fox)

In terms of pure craftsmanship, it's pretty good (it has an impressive setting in a post-apocalyptic world), but my question is about the literary source: who writes these verbal diarrhea and, more importantly, who reads them? “Twilight”, “Divergence”, “Labyrinth”, “Hunger Games”, just one literary crap after another, all obviously intended for teenage readers whose mental world I don't understand and don't want to.

An upward tendency. The Scorch Trials looks better and the action is first-rate. The thugs are carbon copies from those in World War Z, but for a kids’ film they are quite scary enough. Bali has the direction firmly in hand, but sometimes the story (btw extremely different from the book) sometimes trips him up. In terms of acting, still quite endearing and the hired “stars" really enjoy their supporting roles. If you stop with part three, you’ll be happy.

I was really excited about the first movie. The idea with the maze was great, the ignorance, the mystery... But now, the truth about this world is starting to come to the surface more and more, and I was getting bored with the movie and hoping it would end soon. I'm not very interested in this development anymore, and I can't imagine that the third part could save it.
