The maze is a strictly controlled experiment: the cage delivers supplies and newcomers on time, and the maze opens and closes on time. The wisdom in the secret room and the humanity in the closed space are the most charming and attractive story types in the independent space. Unfortunately, the film did not focus on the display and torture of human nature in a closed space, so it is impossible to bring back to the real society after watching the film or the shock of thoughts deep in the heart.
The design of the labyrinth in the film is still very imposing. It is huge in size and intricate. The forms of existence and movement of several regions are different. In addition, there are a large number of ghosts and beasts in the formation. Although the trajectory of the maze has traces to follow, it is designed and controlled by humans. The entire range of the maze is monitored by humans in all directions. Such a scene setting is an excellent match for the theme of suspense and puzzle solving. If you make good use of deep Digging, I believe that the degree of excitement will be doubled as the current film. It is a pity to think about it. Entering the maze is the highlight of the panoramic display of the maze. The escape part of the last two is thrilling and dangerous. The design of the blade area and the boulder flip are also refreshing, but the shortcoming is that the time is too short, and a few large areas are just passing by. If the characteristics of the eight regions can be presented one by one, the audience may have a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the maze. The last escape from the labyrinth is also the climax of the whole film, but it is also the most antiquated place. Everyone is unimpeded in the maze, leading directly to the final pass. The only threat is a few brainless ghost beasts, instead of setting up elaborate puzzles, the only pass code is not difficult at all, so the role of the maze It has been weakened to almost zero, which is really regrettable for wasting such a good subject.
There is not much ink on the maze, and the director spends more time on rendering the characters and themes of the story. Speaking of this, I have to mention the movie adaptations of the best-selling teenagers that have become popular in recent years. Teen fan movies show a blowout trend. The setting of the background of the story is similar in the same way. The time of the event is all placed in the world after the reshuffle, breaking the current world pattern and laws, and formulating a series of new orders. The protagonist of the teenager, the coat of science fiction, the thrilling story, and the theme of shabby and new. They focused on the environment, living conditions, and psychological changes in which young people grew up, and told about their daring to break through themselves, break conventions, and challenge authority to save the world. When people analyze, evaluate and compare these youth novels, they always unanimously bring the theme into strong political metaphors, alluding to all kinds of hegemony and injustice in the world today. Therefore, these films always leave people with too much foreshadowing. The impression of less color and unclear plot. Maybe this is a sequel of the film deliberately, maybe the film wants to show that style, but it cannot be denied that they have already had a big impact on the growth of teenagers. I think this may be the reason that Hollywood is so keen to create. The ultimate goal of this phenomenon.
