MAZE RUNNER: THE DEATH CURE 💀
Review
Link: https://www.empireonline.com/movies/maze-runner-death-cure/review/

This article is about the third part of Maze Runner. This movie begins with lots of action and it doesn't have time for remind us how we got to this point of the story. The author said that it reminded him films like Fast and Furious. Other films (Maze Runner 1 and 2) were about mystery and suspense with some action, but this film has more action and it is like a running battle. Also the movie has lots of emotive moments. For example the sad death of Newt, one of the best friends of Thomas (the protagonist) or the shocking death of Teresa, while she was saving Thomas. However for the audience this is not the best teen movie, it is entertaining and shocking, with lots of action, but it is not the great movie.
