The Scorch Trials

My Thoughts:

-    I thought Dashner's books couldn't get more ridiculous, but oh was I wrong! 

-    Wow! This movie was ridiculous and awful!

-    I was so bored! I actually looked at my phone to see how long I'd been in the theater. The movie just wouldn't end!

-    The movie is a completely different story than the book. The only similarities are the character's names.

-    I love that Alan Tudyk was in this film. I always like seeing him.

-    I also liked Janson's Irish accent. 

-    The zombies were bleh. I actually laughed when a zombie got kicked down a stairwell cause it was so ridiculous. 

-    The monkey cam was TERRIBLE! I could barely tell what was going on in some parts because the camera was shaking so bad.

-    I was so disappointed. I liked the The Maze Runner, and I was hoping the movies would give me the closure and answers I never got, but it looks like the movies are going to be just as/even more frustrating than the books. 

First movie in the Maze Runner series:

The Maze Runner

My Thoughts:

-    I thought this was a good adaptation of the book. There was only one difference that bugged me. 

-    All the actors did great! They nailed the casting on this one. Newt was my favorite in the book, and I think he'll be a fav in the movies. I liked Minho a lot too.

-    I'm hoping the movies will give us the answers that the books didn't.

-    I pictured the greavers a little different in my head, but I thought they did a good job with them.

-    Even though I knew what was going to happen, I was still in suspense. 

-    This was a fun thriller/action movie. I'll probably watch The Scorch Trials. 

-    I liked the James Dashner cameo at the end.

No Reservations

My Thoughts:

-    I am not a chick flick person!  However, I now have 3 chick flicks that I really like.  

-    I love movies that involve food.

-    I LOVED Nick.  He was SO charming, but I hated the pants he wore to work...and the crocs.

-    Their 2nd kiss was hot!

-    I admit it...I got teary during a couple parts.  Ever since I had my little gnome, children losing parents or parents losing children really get to me.

-    The acting and actors were great!!  They were perfect for their roles.

-    Zoe stole my heart, and I just ached for her.  

-    Kate is pretty.

-    I really enjoyed this!  If you're a chick, I highly recommend this one!

-    I want to watch it again.
