The book is the same thing that the movie. I agree with you.
Just because it has typical stereotypes does not mean it's a bad movie. These are stereotypes of a good movie, and if that makes it a little predictable, then be it. If you don't like the typical movies, then that's fine, but I actually enjoyed it very much and I don't really think much about stereotypes when I watch movies, I just watch them and get all wrapped up in it, the storyline, the people, what happened before, what happened after. I found this movie so interesting.
It was a great movie. I haven't seen anything like the maze runner, so for me it is new. Just you coming here sayng "could have been a great movie, if it had tried something new." seems so ignorant and out of place. You could've said that you didn't like that it was stereotypical, but that isn't the same as it being something "old" because it really isn't.
Gosh.

I thought it had a great start, you didn't really know what's happening and what to expect (didn't read the book). But going on, the movie developed typical stereotypes:
It's in this pattern non-different to many other movies that just came out (Hunger Games, Divergent, etc.), but in a more general sense follows a lot of movies. So arround the middle I got pretty bored, as the yet original start became more and more transparent with no supprises at all. Very unfortunate, could have been a great movie, if it had tried something new.
Btw. I didn't read the book, so my short review does not take that into consideration.
