Background:
The Maze Runner is based on the first book in James Dashner's
dystopian YA series, published in 2009. The film was directed by
Wes Ball in his feature debut, showcasing a visually gripping and
atmospheric adaptation of the novel. Its success led to a trilogy of
films that collectively expanded the universe.
Storyline:
The story focuses on Thomas, a boy who finds himself trapped in a
strange, enclosed community of boys called "The Glade." With no
memory of his life before waking up in "The Box" (an elevator
delivering supplies and new arrivals), Thomas struggles to piece
together who he is and why he is there. The Gladers live a structured
life, with assigned roles such as farmers, builders, and the elite
group known as the Runners—those who venture into the Maze
during the day to map it and search for an exit.
The Maze is more than just a puzzle—its walls move every night,
and lurking inside are terrifying biomechanical creatures known as
Grievers, which can kill or infect those they sting with a deadly
virus.
Things take a turn when Teresa, the first girl ever to arrive, is sent
with a cryptic note declaring that she will be the last arrival. She
shares a mysterious connection with Thomas, and together, they
begin to unravel the truth about the Maze, discovering it's part of a
larger experiment conducted by an organization known as WCKD
(World Catastrophe Killzone Department).
