The Maze Runner

I love movies! Either Comedy, Action, a Classic one or Tragedy… It doesn’t matter I watch everything. And that’s the reason why I enjoy going to the cinema so much. However some movies are better than others. Some may have a good story but the acting is horrible. Others have a great soundtrack but you can’t really get into the movie…

So I made a new category to talk about my passion for films: Movie Talk Time. Whenever I see a movie and I think something about it is special I’m going to write an entry about it.

Here is the first one… “The Maze Runner”. This movie is for sure one of the really good ones! The story is absolutely amazing… (What you probably know if you have read the books already).
Anyway I’m not going to tell you what’s happening in this film because I want you to watch it by yourself. It is worth seeing it! I mean just have a look at the actors. First of all there is Dylan O’Brian and I’m pretty sure most of you know him from Teen Wolf as Styles and you just have to love him.  He’s playing the main character Thomas, so if you are a Dylan O’Brian lover The Maze Runner is a movie you definitely have to watch.
 But he is not the only boy you will recognise… there is also Newt played by Thomas Sangster. I’m pretty sure you all know him as Simon from “Nanny McPhee” or you saw him in “Game of Thrones”. And let me tell you something he hasn’t changed at all… He is still looking like this 10 year old cute boy. But when you get further into the movie you realise that his acting skills became pretty good and you start seeing him as the man and great actor he is.
Besides those two, one of my favourite actors was Ki Hong Lee (Minho). Maybe you know him from “The Nine Lives of Chloe King” (I didn’t) but I’m sure that with The Maze Runner his carrier just started. His acting was great although I couldn’t name one character that did an awful job with acting… Oh and by the way he is seriously good looking if you ask me.
Though my favourite character was probably Chuck who was played by Blake Cooper. You just have to love him! He is one of the youngest boys in the Maze so you automatically see him as your little brother… I could write so much more about him but that would kind of give away the outcome of the movie …

The final scenes are just amazing… obviously it’s ending with a cliff-hanger because there are two more books waiting to become a movie… but still it is an ending you just cannot imagine during the movie.


“The Maze Runner” is such an exciting movie and you get so easily a connection with the characters and the story. Furthermore the music and the camera angles are on point and supporting the thrilling feeling you get while watching. Totally worth to be seen!

The National (Portrait) Gallery

On Sunday I visited The National Gallery and The National Portrait Gallery and to be honest …. There isn’t that much to talk about. I mean both galleries are really lovely buildings and there are a lot of paintings to look at but it can be quite exhausting to just look at art the whole day.

Although The Portrait Gallery is more fun … There you can also see some sculptures and some really strange stuff like a video of David Beckham sleeping. In my opinion the paintings there were just more interesting.

If you are a fan of paintings of Jesus and all this religious things then you may like the National Gallery… You can find an awful lot of them there. Here and there you also see some really good one from van Gough or Cloud Monnet … but most of the time it is Jesus.

I never have been a big fan of art museums so maybe that’s why I didn’t like the National Gallery that much. But if you are someone who likes art then those two Galleries are the right place for you. The entry is for free and if you do a little break in between it’s also possible to see both at one day. But believe me your feeds and your eyes are going to need the break. You don’t have to spend hours there to see everything (accept if you do want to have a close look at every single painting) so you would still have some time to visit some other sighs or maybe just have a nice dinner or lunch at one of the many restaurants around it.   

And now let the pictures speak for themselves…
