User Reviews

wow can't believe all the hate reviews

This film was a great finale for the Maze Runner triology series. I'm not sure why all the hate, it was in line with the last film, yet still not as good as the first one. But certainly not worth all the 1's! Awesome special effects and cinematography, great directing and on point acting. Sure the ending was a little mushy, but still a great and enjoyable watch. A well deserved 8/10 from me.
