the maze runner

     I heard about the Maze Runner when i was at school, and from what i heard sounds like a pretty good movie. I had gone to my friends house to watch it, having the volume really loud made me feel like i'm in the theaters. So basically the movie is about a teenage boy named Thomas wakes up in an elevator in the middle of a giant labyrinth like the other youths before him. Thomas becomes part of the group and demonstrates a unique perspective to his group that there's a way out of the maze. They will work together to solve the mystery of the maze.
