After escaping from the maze, this movie has nothing to do with the maze. Not only does the shadow of the maze disappear, but even the story mode is a new type. I have to say that the movie has deviated from the previous theme, and it is Moving in an uncertain direction, of course, the overall effect of the movie is much better than the first movie, because not only the rhythm has been accelerated a lot, but even the plot is continuous one after another. The movie gives people the feeling of running constantly, no matter where you go, nowhere is safe, you can only keep changing places, but changing places is useless, because you can always be found, and you can't escape the fate of being surrounded and suppressed. Watching this movie, I always feel like my eyebrows are on fire. It's so hot that I can't stop at all. Things are developing too fast, and the added plot is very direct and there is nothing worth stopping. , keep running, anyway, you will encounter monsters, keep chasing us, nowhere is safe, until the chasing soldiers chase, everything is over, there is no story that can be described, that is, the whole movie The only feeling that gives people is running. As for what kind of story you want to tell, I really can't say what kind of story this is.

The movie narrowly creates a running theme, which greatly improves the viewing value of the movie. It is not only intense, but also constantly creates exciting plots for us that can make us hold our breath. This is very good, after all Good looks come first, because the first movie created a suspenseful atmosphere based on moving mazes too much, and then reduced the creation of action scenes, thereby reducing the movie's viewability, and this movie incorporates There are a lot of high-risk action scenes, and a lot of monsters and doomsday scenes have been added, which inevitably improves the entertainment nature of the movie, but leaves a plot hole that needs to be filled, without the entanglement of the first movie. The plot, the movie seems to have no plot at all, and the action drama completely replaces the plot, thus turning it into a road movie that runs all the way. It can’t be said that the film’s approach is not good. It can only be said that the film has become a superficial work on the senses. Without a plot that can support the entire film, the film presents a scene construction that focuses on sensory effects. The human factor and the contradictory relationship bring only naked visual effects, which cannot but be said to be the failure of a movie sequel. The movie plot just stayed in place, and did not take a small step at all, so the movie's The direction has become more and more confused, and the prospects that the film presents to us are also confused. I always feel that our male protagonist is a god-like existence, who can always smell the danger first, and is the only one who can constantly doubt the surrounding environment. He can lead everyone on the right path without any mistakes, even if It was struck by lightning. If you choose the last one to escape, you will be able to escape without any danger. This kind of routine is really boring. With the aura of the protagonist, as long as you are behind him, you will be foolproof, as long as there is him Now, nothing matters. The strong setting of the protagonist's background makes the movie boring and uninspired.

Without the labyrinth, the movie seems to have only an empty shell left, and it has become a hunting target, madly hugging its head and running away. Although the director added a lot of new characters, the effect is not very obvious, and it does not bring us anything that can help. The information on the development of the plot has instead become a drag and a vassal, it just adds a halo to the protagonist, and nothing else. As the second male and female lead in this movie, the final joining the enemy camp is obviously a deliberate act. behavior, although the film does not necessarily mean this, but in our eyes it gives us the feeling it means.

How to evaluate this movie? It feels like the theme is off track. Although the whole movie feels lively and lively, it is useless. The story has no development at all, just blindly fighting monsters and upgrading , the protagonist of the movie also understands that he has a unique talent where he will die. Finally, after he understands this truth, he starts to organize a big counterattack without hesitation, and brings the curse on him to the enemy camp, which is obviously a desolate sadness. The film quality of the film uses a warm yellow tone. I don’t know if the director wants to highlight the hope, or is it just reckless? unknown.
