    A very clever idea and a very original film.

    Cube is the best sci-fi horror film since Alien. Yes, it's that good. It's a masterpiece of originality, low budget filmmaking, and tapping into the darkest realm of the human spirit. Like the best horror films, the external horror of the cube reflects how fucked up we are as ...( read more)a species.
    Six strangers wake up in this strange cube filled with smaller cube rooms. Some of the rooms are lined with traps, meaning if you enter them, you will suffer a brutally disgusting death. (And I bet if this film were made today, the movie would only be about the deaths, exploiting each trap to make you, the audience, squirm. Alas, Cube is too smart a film for that.) The six need to work together to figure a way out. Of course, as a character says early in the film, they have to save themselves from themselves. Because in the end, the group's greatest threat isn't the cube, but one of their own.
    Movies this original are few and far between. It was an absolute pleasure to sit through Cube. I was completely absorbed by its ideas, by the characters, by the great performances, and ultimately, by the cube itself. Who would build such a thing? And for what purpose? One can only imagine how many things mankind has created that have the ability to ruin the world.

    A group of people are trapped in some kind of giant Rubik's cube. Rather limited scope but the analysis of the trapped group psychosis and the novel idea makes an enjoyable sci-fi flick.

    Bizarre, gory and extremely clever, Cube is a great movie. It doesn't come together quite as well as I would have hoped, but it's a fascinating, thought-provoking film with an interesting cast and a concept that's fantastically original. Clearly a big influence for the Saw fran...( read more)chise. Certainly recommended to genre fans.

    I watched this by pure coincidence for the simple reason that it was on and I was in the same room - not usually my genre either (I scare too easy), but I found this to be totally fascinating and just couldn't stop watching.
    I had to look the other way a couple of times (once rig...( read more)ht at the beginning) but a terrific idea for a film.

    Had Potential, with an Interesting subject matter but tarnished with poor acting and being tooooo predictable and over done

    Muy buena pelicula. Nada hollywodense. Pero el final se me hizo chafa.

    Unrealistic and relatively predictable, but it was original when it came out.
