I'd never heard of the book and I know one person who didn't like it, but I thought the trailer looked interesting. It seems like it would be more of my thing than Hunger Games or Divergent.
Looking for some stories?I saw it (my mom is a fan of the books).
Not too bad, but considering all the changes it made to the source material, it definitely could have been stronger.
Also, I suddenly realized that this entire story's setting could count as an Anti-Snow Piercer.
I've read the book and actually had a lovely conversation with the author when he signed my copies of his book. Pretty interested in seeing the movie.
I'm a critical person but I'm a nice guy when you get to know me. Now, I should be writing.Think this will get a sequel?
My mother got really confused at the end.
Watched it about a day ago or so. Pretty decent I'd say with some nice action and thrilling moments. Could've done without the shaky cam moments though.

I'm on Youtube Reviewing Things Cause I can.This movie. This damned movie. Gah. I liked it, but, just, gah.
"The literal meaning of life is whatever you're doing that prevents you from killing yourself." Albert CamusFinally got around to seeing it.
Good adaptation. I loved the casting. Pretty faithful, though there are some major changes; the 'solution' and 'exit' to the maze are different in the book, but probably for the better of the medium. And, obviously, there are some added action sequences here and there.
I was actually surprised they kept their twist ending from the epilogue of the book. I half expected that to be saved for a sequel should it get one. The ending was still a massive Holy Shit Quotent.
Anyway, I'll look forward to Scorch Trials.

Here's a comparison to the book if anyone wants.

Well, not everyone heard of the book series before this film, so it's not exactly an option. But seriously, I can't really imagine giant slugs to be all that scary.

(V)(;,,;)(V)Pretty decent. The protagonist's accent was stupid, the evil eyebrow guy couldn't act his way out of a paper bag, and the switcheroo with the twist at the ending was frustrating, but it was still pretty enjoyable.
