This pointless, stupid, illogical movie as so bad that I just turned it off. I didn't care about the characters and their incomprehensible motivations and actions.Nothing seemed to make any sense; the plot, the action.... Nothing made sense.

First, I will state that this movie is almost nothing like the book. However, if you can look past that (after all, which movies these days are not vastly different from their literary inspirations?) this was a really good movie.The action scenes were packed and interesting to watch, and the slower scenes did a good job of keeping the movie grounded and developing the characters. Some of the actions scenes did strain credulity, but we don't watch a movie or read a book to experience reality. We watch a movie to escape reality, and that is what this movie does. It gives you an escape from real life, while still holding enough reality to make the characters and their actions relatable.There were definitely some plot holes and questions that really should have been answered, that needed to be answered. For example, why did the immunes have to be put through such horrific "trials" in order for a cure to be found? Why did Thomas not realize that his blood could save Newt as it had done with Brenda, or that it could at least give Newt a little bit more time? But as with all movies, you can't answer every question unless you want a movie that is four hours long. It also isn't realistic to get all of the answers sometimes. How often are we left questioning things in our own lives? Sometimes things happen without us knowing the reasons why.I also feel like the actors did a really good job at portraying their characters in a realistic way. Dylan O'Brien makes Thomas so real, and you truly feel that he wants nothing more in life than to save his friends and keep them safe. Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Newt, is the reliable right-hand man who follows Thomas' lead but questions him at times to bring him back to earth. And Will Poulter gives a great performance and makes Gally feel like he is still essentially the same character from the first movie, a good guy who did bad things because he was scared for his friends, and now he wants to make amends for what he's done.Some people will hate this movie because it doesn't wrap everything up in a nice little bow, or because it does not follow the book religiously. But keeping in mind that this is a movie trilogy based on a book series intended to be read by TEENAGERS, I think that this movie delivered exactly what it promised. A movie about teenagers meant for teenagers, who don't always do things the same way that adults would, nor do they look at circumstances, reasons, or questions in the same way either. It gives a unique perspective of an imaginary situation and guesses what a group of teenagers would do if faced with those circumstances, and I think that they did a pretty good job of delivering an answer.Overall, this was a really good movie when you look at it as being there purely for entertainment. And isn't that all that a movie is meant to be anyway?

I didn't like the first movie much, gave it a 6. I was upset that from all possibilities they had with the maze, they barely even went into it and all it had was one type of monster. But it turned out to be just a setup for a bigger plot. What the first movie did well though was making me care about the characters. I wanted to see them survive through the sequel.The second movie I liked more. It was predictable, but rather enjoyable. I liked how they developed the story, liked the addition of new characters and new bonds. The late betrayal, the set up for a sequel, it all was done kind of well, made me want to see the next movie. Gave that one solid 7.Now the last movie, this one, yes, it was just as predictable as the second one and full of cliche, generic scenes and average acting, but it did well what it was supposed to do. It drew a nice conclusion to a pretty long story. It also played really well along those bonds that the characters have developed over three movies. I liked that. I also greatly enjoyed how the story developed and how it concluded. For that I give this movie an 8.It made watching two previous ones worth the time. Well done.

The title says it all, its a pretty generic teenage action movie. still watchable though, ive seen worse than this. if you're into teenage action movies might even like it
