《移动迷宫》英文观后感

In the mist of the massive amount of adaptations of young adult novels to film, The Maze Runner was one which stood out as one of my favorite novels in recent years.

The Maze Runner captured my attention immediately, even though I had already read the book. How had Thomas ended up in this clunky lift which had brought him to this bizarre place? The question which brings me to my next point, is; who are these strange boys?

Dylan O'Brien, as the lead, performed an exceptional job of portraying Thomas; his personality really reflected the terror and anxiousness as Thomas arrived in the Glade, and it was great to see a familiar face from his performances in Teen Wolf. Aml Ameen was also exceptional, portraying the tough leader of Alby pitch perfectly. However, when Will Poulter performed as Gally - the dark, dangerous character - I just couldn't get the scene from We're the Millers where Poulter's character is bitten on the testicle by a deadly spider.

The action scenes and fighting scenes were performed fantastically by the actors, considering they were running towards and through a green screen, they seemed like they were really there.

I would recommend The Maze Runner to all those who enjoy the Science Fiction genre, or those who enjoyed Divergent, I am Number Four, or The Hunger Games - all very similar young adult adaptations. The Maze Runner is a great movie.
