Disappointed

Rating: 5/10 (14 October 2014)

I saw that this movie was coming out and I was very excited. I decided to read the book and it's safe to say it is one of the most well written books I have ever read. The movie was extremely disappointing.They took out crucial parts of the book and replaced it with garbage. For instance, the gladers never received the antidote for the griever sting until later on in the movie, in the book it was there all along and the antidote caused the changing. Many other things such as the whole scene with Ben in the homestead then lunging at Thomas or Gally saying he'd seen Thomas in the changing or one major thing, the sky turning gray and the sun disappearing. Speaking of, there was no weather in the glade, there was only blue sky and the sun. In the movie it rained and there were clouds. There is so much I found wrong with this movie. Some of the acting, in my opinion, wasn't that well done. I did find some things to be really well done. I thought the graphics were very well done, it looked very realistic which is one reason i don't hate this movie. I think the actors were picked out really well and they all seemed to portray the character very well. Another thing I did not enjoy about this movie is from the very beginning it started out very wrong. Also the things in the movie happened very fast. I would have rather seen a 3 hour accurate representation of the book then watch this again. I believe this movie would have done much better had the producers went by what the book actually said.
