Anyone else though will have to wonder how much of a finale was all wasted to just pure disappointment coming from the hard work that had all the effort to become a lot better than it expected to come out as. Curing this installment is going to take a long time and I sure wish it didn't have to go this way. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 30 minutes too long, and because i started to get bored i started to think....how can only 200ish people make a whole city burn to the ground in less than an hour? Especially when that city is full of superior armed forces with superior firepower etc Expand

Good but not great, the acting was good especially Thomas Brodie-Sangstar who portrays Newt. however it does take what was a good book and makes it quite generic and average

I just tagged along with a friend who really wanted to see this, so naturally I had no idea what was going on really. The film had its decent and entertaining action moments, but considering this was the final film, it felt pretty rushed and half-assed if you ask me even with its nearly two-and-a-half-hour runtime. With the exception of Dylan O'Brien and Will Poulter, the acting from everyone else was rather poor. Overall, maybe some who saw the first two might get more out of this than I did obviously, but with the lukewarm response this has been receiving by most, it's probably a bit of a gamble. Expand

The story is fairlyThis 3rd and final entry finds the crew on a mission to save other youths who have immunity to the virus that's ravaging the world. They must penetrate the Last City with its minimally impressive modern touches. The story is fairly predictable and so is the action. Luckily, the film is mostly well paced and features enough adventure to keep it interesting. This will prove enjoyably fulfilling for fans of the series, but people who don't hit the demographic may just find it another noisy, melodramatic post-apocalyptic adventure. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There's is a lot wrong with this movie, but first i'm gonna start with the positive. Very well acted, wasn't expecting such nice and tidy acting, I could actually feel their hatred for Teresa and Teresa's guilt. Some of the action scenes are really entertaining.

But the script is such a mess. The use of Deus Ex Machina right in the start of the second act, where they are surrounded by cranks, and then well all of a sudden, they are saved by people who were following them? I think? Added a character who apparently was boss of the cranks and starts a big war, but we don't who the hell he is, so we barely know a character, but he has a huge effect in the movie.
Bringing Gally back from the dead and barely explaining how... the guy got a spear to the chest, you have to explain how he's back or how the hell he survived.
Newt's death is irrelevant, because he dies to make Thomas aware that he can save a lot of people by providing his blood for the cure, and they don't use the cure, instead they end the movie by going to a safe haven... what the hell, you have the cure that can save humanity in your blood use it.
So even though some parts are indeed entertaining, there are a lot of things that seriously annoyed me in this movie

Stunning action pieces that should make some teams from other blockbusters with double the budget reconsider things. Fantastic visuals. The film flows thanks to it and also thanks to great performances by a good part of the cast. The writing is the weakest part, but it is also the case for many of these blockbusters in general. Maybe the weakest film in the trilogy was the second, so this last one tries to reconnect all the things. And does it successfully in my opinion. Towards the end I was clearly invested in what this group of people were going through. Pure entertainment and some emotional investment. Recommendable. Expand

"Maze Runner: The Death Cure" ends the franchise on a thrilling and action-packed, if generic note.

"The Death Cure" began its commercial run as one of the first offers of the year as it was the month of January that served to enjoy the last adventure into WCKD's roots for long-time fans who were still true and curious moviegoers who wished to overlook the first two films — an unhealthy decision. — Briefly, the film returns seasoned as usual with dangerous-action scenes, two of all them at the level of its predecessor, with some surprising sacrifices plot but with an incompetent and illogical resolution that leaves a rather bitter taste on the world of this franchise. It was supposed to make a big name for itself, which, sadly, did not happen that way. I can imagine screenwriters and executives, avid for more but willing less, sitting at the same table discussing the different — absolute? — closing possibilities to this treacherous trilogy. They were of course conditioned by the book written by Dashner from which they had to adhere their ideas, however, it's perceptible the dependent additive has managed to balance the degree of honesty and divergence with the inspiration source, screenwriters' narrative additions and executives' postulates, in a comparable amount, are even praiseworthy at certain times, but not fascinating and even jarring and laughable. At first glance and although the writers could not move freely at all — although in Hollywood times we see that this isn't an impediment —, betting to go back a place from they just get out seems incoherent, a simple mechanism setting up more action and ostentatious moments, only voided sporadically by tools that blind for a limited time extremely melodramatic lines or melancholic dramatic scenes. The story is commonly designed, that is to say, we follow the fight of the hero, he's defeated several times, but finally wins, the interesting and peculiar thing is that on the way loses important supporters, ergo there are two significant heart-breaking moments that take a vital role in main character's personal development that boost the purpose of destroying WCKD. It's hard to find ways to turn a standard ending into a memorable one, but not impossible, and I don't mean pessimistic conclusions, just, getting something different, something the spectator doesn't expect, sadly, this feature film chooses common solutions, falling into also habitual cinematographic oblivion.

It's already a custom that over-the-top set-pieces offer good-approach choreographies, which, although are not at the level of those present in the second installment, excite and provide a dazzling experience as soon as a cohort of infected arises. These moments are acceptable and even enjoyable, however, there are a couple of sequences that go beyond. On this occasion, the first sequence shares the setting of one of the previous installments, with the daring young runners jumping, as if they were superheroes, from the top of a building. The second and personally the best-sketched-and-accomplished sequence is starring Rosa Salazar and an autobus full with innocents, and despite it doesn't get a completely true result, it made my hair stand on end for the fate of the kids in that unstable bus; an excellent moment, the only one I'd say.

Aesthetically, it does not become a focus of praise either. Keeping a predominant place for darkness and a little presence of vivid colors, the film becomes a little dull, no different settings or racking focus are used, simply, the camera follows or remains static to the actions of the characters. This doesn't mean that it is lackluster and anodyne, it's just one more rescue in which the colors don't have the role they should, leaving expectant to the spectator by a much better visual splendor. Of course, special effects used to get this futuristic city are fantastic and complex, they never feel synthetic or manipulative, as in the compendium of buildings or whitish laboratories take place two key moments. Thus, the conclusion of film trilogy "Maze Runner" at the hands of Wes Ball, the same filmmaker of all the three movies, provides an independent film, endless, but dynamic, laughable but entertaining, cliché about the hopeful fate of its characters. "The Death Cure" shows a good handful of set-pieces and won't mean a tortuous or incoherent time for those who decide to buy a ticket, however, for the most loyal fans and readers will be an idea that relegates great opportunities to stick an ideal conclusion, predicted and lack of the surprise factor. Even so, as a whole, the saga, despite being below Katniss Everdeen's tetralogy but far above "Tris" Prior's unfinished tetralogy, is worthy of a Sunday afternoon to enjoy run-of-the-mill Hollywood adaptations brimmed with action, where what matters is not how getting out of the maze, but, ironically, looking for a way to get back in.

No geral é um filme que ve-se bem e tem uma história bem composta. Expand

It’s about on par with Scortch Trials, But considering this is the final film, It should’ve been at least better.

But it was hard to believe or just down right to cheesy for a movie. The acting was weak as well, for most part. Also the writing was cliche in many instances. The character development struggled to keep up with the trilogy's pace in this last entry which made it bad for the character's endings and motives. This was a movie that delivered on it's genre tags, but did it in a non-special way which added for the movie's overall entertainment which in the end was lacking a lot. Sadly this was a fail of an end entry for this trilogy, in to many ways.
Overall it was an average movie and really nothing stood out of the elements a movie has to touch or accomplish in order to be a better one.

In any case, it was with pleasure that I decided to see this film. I still like it, but it was the film with the most flaws and weaknesses in the trilogy (or tetralogy?).

In this film, Thomas is still disappointed with Teresa and tries to overcome that. But the desire to save Minho and take revenge on WICKED is evident and leads him to take a dangerous path, which will lead him to the mouth of the wolf, to the headquarters of the organization that, in the name of good and medicine, seems to have totally lost the notion of ethics. It is a film that fits well with its predecessors and gives the trilogy a positive conclusion, if they decide to stop it here. In fact, I noticed the film does not seem to know if it is a continuation or the conclusion of a franchise. I still don't like zombies, I've never been a fan of zombies. The film has good scenes of action and suspense, the ending is really well done but, after a certain moment, drag on and lose the rhythm. I also noticed some flaws in logic and continuity, like the fact that Ava says the virus is aero-transmissible, and it just won't be said or developed later. And, for God's sake, how did so many healthy human people suddenly appear?

The cast is generally good. Dylan O'Brian is safe in his character, but there's not much more for him to show us that he hasn't shown before. Scodelario continues to shine and make an interesting character, more complex than he appears to be. Aidan Gillen was a sinister and inhuman villain. Thomas Brodie-Sangster receives additional attention and does his job in an excellent way. Ki Hong Lee disappears for much of the film, although his character is decisive in the plot. Giancarlo Esposito seems to be determined to win a Cavalry medal, because he always shows up to save his colleagues at the right moment. Rosa Salazar practically disappears from the moment the screenwriter decided that her character was not going to fit Thomas.

The film has excellent production values and there is a lot of money tied up in high quality CGI. The desert and inhospitable world seems great, and the city of WICKED is futuristic, elegant and of remarkable visual beauty. Infected human creatures, as I said, are the least positive thing and, in this film, they almost disappear from the scene. The film has excellent cinematography, is visually magnificent and makes the most of light and colors. The soundtrack also deserves mention. Composed by John Paesano, whom I did not know, it is an intense soundtrack, with an epic and deep sense.
