Orientation:
Maze runner is a movie which is adapted from James Dashner novel with the same
name. This movie tell us about a group of people who tried to get out from a place

called Glade, but they need to go through the maze which have a danger creature called
Grievers.
Evaluation:
This movie tells about a boy named Thomas, wakes up inside an underground service
elevator with no memory of his identity. A group of male youths greet him in a large
grassy area called the Glade that is enclosed by tall, stone walls. Every month, a new
boy and supplies arrive in the elevator. The boys, called Gladers, have formed a
rudimentary society with each assuming specialized tasks, they have been in the Glade
for about three years. Alby, their leader and the first to arrive in the Glade, says every
boy eventually recalls his name, but none remember their past. The boy learns that a
vast Maze surrounding the Glade may provide the only way out. During the day,
designated Runners search the Maze for an escape route, returning before nightfall
when the entrance closes. No one has ever survived a night inside the Maze.
Then, the condition of the Glade starting to change when a female named Teresa come
as the last person in the Glade. One day, the leader Alby get stung by a Griever. Then
Thomas replace Alby place as the runner and he became Minhos partner. The two of
them then try to find way out from the maze.
Interpretation:
The acting of all the casts is awesome. The development of the character is also good.
But, the movie would be more alive if there is a romance scene. Because, as we know
that romance is often catch the audience attention.
Summary:
I think this movie is a great science-fiction movie. The movie shows us how to fight for
life. The movie also shows that we can live with any races. For example are Minho and
Alby. So, this movie is good for anyone to watch.
