Thomas (Dylan O'Brien) wacht auf einer Lichtung auf und kann sich an nichts mehr erinnern - außer seinem Vornamen. Bald erfährt er, dass dieser fremde Ort inmitten eines Labyrinths liegt, aus dem es keinen Ausweg zu geben scheint. Aber Thomas ist nicht allein. Mit ihm sind viele andere Jungen im Labyrinth gefangen, die ebenfalls ihr Gedächtnis verloren haben wie Newt (Thomas Brodie-Sangster), Alby (Aml Ameen), Gally (Will Poutler) und Minho (Ki Hong Lee). Eines Tages ist ein Mädchen die Neue auf der Lichtung. Sie heißt Teresa (Kaya Scodelario) und soll die Letzte sein. Gemeinsam versuchen sie einen Weg in die Freiheit zu finden und das unheimliche Geheimnis zu lüften, wer sie hergebracht hat und warum? (Fox Deutschland)

Maze Runner: Die Auserwählten im Labyrinth funktioniert ähnlich wie Die Tribute von Panem - die Geschichte spielt in einer unbestimmten Zukunft und die Protagonisten müssen sich mit einer Realität auseinandersetzen, die nach den Regeln von außen oder von oben funktioniert. Die Handlung baute sich bis zum Finale gut auf, das den imaginären Sinn der Geschehnisse im Film enthüllte und damit auch die Bühne für eine Fortsetzung bereitete. Die Besetzung war größtenteils gut, es gab nur wenige gute Gruselgeschichten, was angesichts des Schauplatzes inmitten des Labyrinths seltsam ist, aber es war ja auch kein Horrorfilm. Kurzum, ein Film, der sich in eine lange Reihe verschiedener Science-Fiction-Filme einreiht, sich aber keineswegs blamiert und über dem Durchschnitt bleibt.

At the beginning, excellent work with a great atmosphere and a well-developed screenplay full of solidly escalating tension, delivering a multitude of questions and forcing us to think. Unfortunately, it only lasts until about halfway through, when the rule "if you've seen everything, there's nothing left to fight for" starts to effectively apply, and it only goes downhill qualitatively from there. The same can be said about the tension and the good feeling from a relatively imaginative-looking intimate project with unfamiliar actors. The ending is horrifying.

I’m glad that lately Americans have been making one film after another based on fantasy bestsellers for young people, of which there are tons these days. Off the top of my head, I could name for example Hunger Games or Divergence. The Maze Runner is also a good movie. Even though my rating might not suggest it at first glance, I was having really good time watching this film. It is not easy to portray a world so vastly different from ours. But the creators succeeded in doing it and the only issue I had with this movie was its story, which I found irritating but there’s nothing to be done about at. Fortunately, one girl found her way into the gay environment so from the second half this movie has at least some balls.

Not bad at all. The plot and its approach as an adventure fantasy against the backdrop of the psychological coexistence of a group of "chosen ones" manages to keep the attention alert at all times, and though the subject matter represents a typical, ambitious "big movie for the young" of our times, the visually stylized form is often overshadowed by intimate scenes in which the conflicts between the characters escalate and the mysterious labyrinth is only descriptively presented. And that's a good thing, as neither the ideas nor the action inside the maze have enough potential to provide a great and unusual experience. The film fades from your mind very soon, but the little it leaves behind is positive. 65%

It was very difficult to trust a potential future blockbuster that which was charged to a brand new and inexperienced director, but surprisingly he did it with style and ease. The young actors are charismatic, we have future promising actors some of whom may have decent careers ahead of them. The pacing is very decent with no dead spots, the story is also very good for the genre and features many a cool twist, the action is clear and spectacular, some scenes are so well paced that they are almost palpable with suspense, and of course the unpredictability is the main draw of the film, it leaves you in anticipation until the last minute. If you liked Lost, this works on a similar principle. 80%
