Good start

Rating: 6/10 (7 January 2015)

The movie is about a boy, Thomas, who ends up in a place called the Glade, a field surrounded by a maze. The Glade is inhabited by several other boys, who, like Thomas, have no memory before the Glade. Thomas soon finds out that they have created a small community and they are trying to find an exit by searching the maze before its gates close for the night, as no one has survived a night in the maze. But when Thomas is trapped in the maze for a night and survives, the boys soon realize that he is not like the others. As I haven't read the book, but having heard about it, I can't review it based on how much close to the book was the film adaption. However, the film that I watched was a really nice action-fantasy film, even though some parts of it were easy to predict. The pros of the film are the performances, the costumes, the special effects, the music and the settings. The bad are the stops and starts of the story. Plus, at some point of the film, like the action scenes, it failed to be original. Other than that, I liked it and I am giving it a 6 out of 10, hoping that the next one will be better.
