The reason why we’ve had to wait so long
for this third instalment of the series is that O’Brien was injured in 2016
while filming a scene for it. His injuries included concussion, facial
fracture, and lacerations and were quite serious, so he needed time to recover.
Is the film worth the wait then? Well, as
its predecessor it has very little to do with the book it is based on (the
American author James Dashner’s young adult dystopian sci-fi novels) and it is
very action-packed. To free Minho our heroes must enter the “Last City” where
WCKD has its headquarters and on their way, they have to fight Cranks, humans
infected with the zombifying virus the Flare. They get unexpected help from a
former enemy as well as the rebellion leader Lawrence (Walton Goggins) and in
the chaos of rebels storming the city, Thomas and his friends try to save Minho
and the other immune children who are used as guinea pigs in WCKD’s labs.
Although action-packed, the film is way
too long, 141 minutes, and it could easily have ended half an hour earlier. The
end itself is… pointless, I think is the right word. It is very unfulfilling,
when there has been no reason to why your heroes had to go through all the
struggle and pain and that is the case with the entire Maze Runner series, if
you really think about it. Besides, the people who die in the book also die in
the film, so consider yourself warned!
As for the actors, Dylan O’Brien as Thomas
suffers from the hero problem: he just has to look good and be heroic and that
is not enough to make a character interesting. The one I noticed the most was
once again the British actor Thomas Brodie-Sangster as Thomas’ sidekick Newt,
whereas my daughter (yes, I brought her along again, although she is now
nineteen and almost too old for this kind of YA-films!) was fond of the
Korean-American actor Ki Hong Lee as the missing Minho. Worth mentioning is
also Walton Goggins, but that’s mainly because his character Lawrence looks
like Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler without a nose! All in all, I’ll give “Maze
Runner: The Death Cure” three stars out of five: ***
