Maze Runner: The Death Cure

Good movie!... Good movie!

Thank you very much for not splitting this movie into two parts. As a member of _The Death Cure's_ audience I do genuinely appreciate that. I am less appreciative however of the movie itself.

I am less appreciative however of the movie itself. It doesn't at all pay off the confusion I suffered at the hands of the franchise. My opinion on the _Maze Runner_ series has been mixed, but I feel certain that this one is the worst, and not only that, but it kind of retroactively made me appreciate the first two less. _Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product._

With the main characters already introduced in the first two movies, The Death Cure skips over character reintroductions and dives straight into the action from the very first scene. While this fast-paced start keeps the energy high, it feels like a missed opportunity for the director to focus more on story growth and deepening character attachments in the opening act. That said, character buildup throughout the movie is an improvement over The Scorch Trials. There are several emotional scenes that add weight to the story and allow viewers to connect with the characters on a deeper level. The production quality remains on par with the previous films, featuring impressive cinematography and solid visuals that capture the scale and intensity of the narrative. The film is packed with action sequences, which deliver plenty of excitement but ultimately lack depth. While the stakes are clear, the story misses an opportunity to create a more engaging conflict that keeps viewers on edge and conflicted about the central themes, such as the cure and its implications. The finale, while emotional, feels somewhat underwhelming. It hints at resolution but lacks the sense of closure expected from the conclusion of a trilogy. Despite its strong visuals and emotional moments, the film falls short of fully delivering on the promise of its story. The Death Cure delivers thrilling action and improved character moments but struggles to provide the narrative depth and satisfying closure that could have elevated the trilogy's conclusion.
