The Maze Runner

— Decent effects don’t mask the fact that this is a simplistic storyline and the first in a trilogy by James Dashner. I don’t think we need another trilogy and “The Hunger Games” and “Divergent” are much better. I watched this on a flight (DVD) and it was acceptable fluff in that context but I wouldn’t suggest going out of your way to see it.
