Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
lorcan-61881 So,I don't really know why or even..ya why,but Cube,yes,the awesome horror film got a sequel that I only really noticed recently when I bought the whole trilogy in a thrift store,the idea of making Cube 2 is stupid because..with a movie like Cube,one films enough but of course,due to it being an original awesome style movie..Cube 2:Hybercube was let film and soon after released as a independent sci-fi horror film. The film follows several strangers who wake up in the same cube from the first film,though,there is a awful catch,its..mh..well..ya see..its in space,basically. Cube 2 is a brilliant example for money making sequels,although,happily,this barely made any money,its so dumb and people just throw things at it like oh,ehhh,space,white cubes,blind girl,moving walls..and its so bad. Unlike Cube,the acting in this film is so bad,its actually incredibly bad,I have'int ever seen acting as bad as the acting in Cube 2 and oh,oh,oh my god!! The ending,you know me,I will not spoil but the ending in Cube 2 is most likely one of worst ending ever,the CGI though as well in this film is like something this director got on his phone as a app produced by some fat lard,AHHH,I hate this god damn sack of sh*t film so called a sequel to Cube. Cube 2 is a awful 2 hours of garbage and no,I'm not watching or reviewing Cube 3 cause I can obviously tell by the cover that its another money making piece of crap!!
gavin6942 Eight strangers awaken with no memory and find themselves in a puzzling cube shaped room where the laws of physics do not always apply.This sequel is directed by Andrzej Sekuła, more often known as a cinematographer; films shot by him include "American Psycho", "Hackers", "Vacancy", and "Armored". That list of credits might make you suspect this is going to be a great film, but you probably would be wrong.Some of what happens in this film is interesting. The general premise is not all that changed from the original. However, it gets a bit more abstract and I am not sure if the science really adds up. Making matters worse, the computer effects are pretty sloppy. They just look bad, plain and simple.
sol- This sequel of sorts to Vincenzo Natali's 'Cube' once again focuses on a group of strangers who realise that they have been kidnapped and placed inside a labyrinthine cube structure with interlocking rooms. This time though, it is a hypercube (a cube with four dimensions) and rather than any of the rooms being booby trapped, several just collapse on themselves as the unstable structure reaches the point of implosion. Some elements of the film are highly predictable, such as each character only ever so gradually divulging that they are connected to a weapons manufacturer who has designed the cube. The performances also range from over-the-top theatrical to overly comical with a senile old lady in the mix and some of the special effects are simply mediocre. Despite all this, 'Hypercube' is relatively encapsulating to view with lots of intriguing science fiction concepts talked about and explored. Most fascinating are the chambers in which time is sped up and slowed down and all the constant shifts in gravity as the characters move from one room to the next renders the whole experience unsettling. The intimate camera-work is great too, often walking and spinning around the characters in tight close-up. This certainly is not a worthless motion picture, but it certainly is more than a step below the original so fans may want to exercise caution.
Michael Van Damme Having re-watched this movie not long ago I feel obligated to write a review on it while I can still somewhat recollect what happened. I will warn you right now, this movie is not worth watching. I mean, I could have accepted the original Cube to act as a stepping stone which later inspired the Saw movies, but I can't even do that anymore because they actually tried too hard to make Cube a thing. They try to add story as to why the characters are all in this "hyper cube" and what it all means, and do you know what it all means? Jack, sh*t. All the details mentioned in this movie could have easily been done without, they do absolutely nothing for the advancement of the plot, assuming there is a plot, except for take up time. It's not even that the movie effects were bad or the acting was poorly done in any way, it's just that there is absolutely no point to any of it. I was convinced these were the first movies these people ever made because they're just so awful. They don't show you outside of the "Cube" for Christ sake. All the characters share ties in the most forced way possible which left me thinking, "...really?". Some of which didn't even make sense, and some of the information that's delivered feels way too incomplete (arguably the details that SHOULD have been included in the movie). Please avoid this film. The other two in the series are atrocious enough as it is, this one just draws the sh*t line.
