A group of teen boys are trapped together in a forest that is surrounded by wall. Everyday the walls open and it leads to a maze. Every thing changes when a girl shows up. Next thing you know, they find a possible way out. Will they succeed or fail?
That about sums up the film. Yes, one paragraph. This movie is not what it was hyped out to be. It was nothing but a mix of Divergent and the second Hunger Games. The plot was spotty and the dialogue lame. The actors were not that great. It is more redeeming in the special effects and stunts department.
I can honestly say, don’t waste your time. This film is not worth it. I have not read the book, so I won’t comment on it, but I hear the book is way better.
