Each of the characters create a certain atmosphere through the movie and makes me like some of the characters even more. A movie critic on Cinemalogue reviewed the movie poorly explaining how predictable the movie was throughout each scene and mentions how Thomas was told shortly after arrival of the maze that he should never enter the maze and that nobody has survived a night in the maze with the creatures.

I thought this because the transition to this scene was out of nowhere as the scene before that had nothing to do with the kid. After watching this movie a couple times I realized some flaws. The characters are predictable and some of the plot is
