Another Great Sci-Fi Movie

Rating: 8/10 (31 December 2014)

I saw this movie over break and I really enjoyed it. I thought it had a great level of suspense throughout the movie. Even the opening scene was suspenseful as you saw Thomas rising in the box. I also thought the cast was selected well as the boys were selected by W.C.K.D from around the world and this was well displayed by their diversity. The graphics were also really well done in the Grievers and all of the stunts and action present in the movie. The dissection of the dead Griever was interesting and very well done as the viewer discovered that although the monsters are mechanical, they actually have working organs which made them even more creepy. I thought that the relationship between Thomas and Chuck was well developed and Chuck sacrificing his life for Thomas was very touching. Finally, the cliffhanger at the end of the movie was well done and I am anxiously awaiting the next movie and will definitely start the book series in the meantime.
