Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials (2015) - Tired Of Running!

★☆☆☆☆
The Maze Runner’ is an exhilarating piece of action cinema, but ‘The Scorch Trials’, in spite of the bigger scale and longer running time, feels so routine and mundane that you can’t help but wonder how you could possibly survive the final chapter of the trilogy. Right, there’s one more to come before getting to the whole picture that I’m no longer interested anyways after checking out this second installment in which all you get basically are the kids running from they don’t know exactly what to they don’t know exactly where, and blabbering seemingly sensible stuff but actually bullshit while taking a break.

I don’t know. Maybe things seem a bit more intense and exciting inside the Maze. When they’re out of it, the thrills are gone, at least to me. The danger out here all seems like a walk in the park coz for them help and rescue is always miraculously instant! One of the key kids, Thomas, is asked in the end why he decides to stop running all of a sudden. His response is pretty much the reason why I’m saying goodbye to whatever’s gonna happen next: I’m tired of running!
