“The film The Maze Runner is based off the three book series written by author James Dashner.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAs post-apocalyptic films adapted from YA novels go, and there have been many, The Maze Runner might be the most successful of the 2014 year.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film opens on a young teen, seemingly kidnapped against his will and unclear of what he is doing. His body, limp on the floor of a openly woven caged box, rises up to the sun and grass where he promptly meets a crowd of his peers, all male. Talking with them he discovers he is exactly like them, unknowingly in this location, his memory erased with only his name available to him, it is Thomas.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHe soon discovers the grassy areau0026#39;s perimeter is completely encapsulated by steeply high concrete walls, beyond which is a maze. The goal is to figure out the maze as it is the only way to freedom.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Maze Runner uses young up-and-comer actors and actresses rather than the obvious and nepotistic decision. Dylan Ou0026#39;Brien does a superb job as the newbie Thomas and Aml Ameen is especially captivating as the leader of the stranded survivors Alby. The primarily British young actors also do a splendid job of masking their native accents for a neutrally American vocal pattern.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFurther, Wes Ballu0026#39;s direction of The Maze Runner has a clear vision as it emulates a vastly PG-er Lord of the Flies vibe. The beauty of the film is its simplicity. Since the children and teens are locked in an experimental cage, there is no need for monotonous information delivery regarding the futuristic world. Thereu0026#39;s no futuristic dialect, class system, government changes or anything of the type.”
