A Fan of the Maze Runner series

Rating: 7/10 (30 September 2015)

First, I was very excited when this movie was announced. I have followed the books, and read them all at least twice, so I had high expectations, but also high hopes for this movie. After watching the trailers also, I was feeling a little less excited, but I was still hopeful. Finally, the day of the movie came, and I went in. Coming out of the movie, I began looking back at all the stuff that was wrong. Not only did some stuff look different, but something felt off. The actors sometimes felt as if they weren't acting, but just reading lines. The grievers were very different than the book, and so was the big slaughter with the grievers. I am not terribly disappointed in the movie, but I was sad that the movie didn't follow as closely as the book as I was hoping. Plus, the new movie coming out soon makes me question what the directors were thinking and doing.
