Matthew is bringing John into the Glade with his pick, The Maze Runner — the 2014 dystopian thriller that hit at the perfect time for middle school Gen Z kids, but apparently looked “pretty dumb” to John when it first came out. Now, John is watching it for the first time to see if the maze, the Grievers, and the whole YA dystopian era still hold up.

The guys talk about being dropped into the story with Thomas, the surprisingly strong CGI, Will Poulter’s very punchable Gally energy, Chuck’s devastating ending, and whether a group of teenage boys could ever realistically build a functioning society that organized. They also debate if The Maze Runner should have been a series instead of a movie, whether the ending leaves enough mystery for the sequels, and why “the changing” might be the most boring name in a movie full of made-up slang.

Is The Maze Runner actually a Gen Z classic, or just another relic from the post-Hunger Games dystopian craze? Welcome back to A Reel Pain, where two generations argue over whether their movies deserve to be considered classics.
