Welcome to the Maze: Maze Runner Review

The movie starts with a boy named Thomas (Dylan O’Brien) waking up in a metal cage. The cage lifts him into a grassy area, called the Glade, where he is greeted by a large group of boys who live there because they are trapped. Surrounding them is a deadly maze, filled with monsters called Grievers. Nobody except a select few called runners are allowed into the Maze for any reason. Life goes on in the Glade just fine until one of the boys tragically dies in the Maze. Alby (Aml Ameen), the group’s leader, goes into the Maze to find any sign of him, and he and Minho (Ki Hong Lee), the head runner, don’t make it back before nightfall. Just as the gate is about to close, Thomas runs in and soon discovers the horrors of the Maze firsthand.

The Chemistry Behind Love and Attraction

Love is a subject that has fascinated people for ages and gives pop culture the juice it needs to keep the public interested: a children’s movie depicting a princess falling for a prince she’d met just five minutes prior, a generic romantic comedy involving a standard meet cute, and the sixth wedding of a reality TV celebrity are all cultural events that make members of the public enamored with the idea of love. Even in the private sphere, the idea of love has its hold on people on a daily basis. Whether it involves daydreaming about frolicking in the meadows with a coworker, having the occasional evening away from the children with a spouse, or simply admiring an attractive person in a bar, love, lust and attraction are standards of human behavior. Many have come up with explanations for the existence of love over the years, which can range anywhere from “it was destiny” to “this person seemed to be agreeable”; however, many do not consider the physiological reasons for which people fall for one another. Actually, the initial reasons for attraction have nothing to do with finding “soul mates” at all. In reality, they are nothing more than the subconscious attempting to fulfill the biological urge to reproduce. Romantic, isn’t it?
