Di Bobi The cube no longer has an interesting design but is as generic and uninteresting as ever. I say 'cube' not 'cubes', because all of the movie clearly happens on the exact same small and boring set.The camera is spinning around the cube all zoomed in for long, puke-inducing amounts of time. I really felt sick and my eyes started to hurt somewhere in the middle of watching this. Whoever filmed this overdid that spinning to create fake tension. It felt truly obnoxious.The characters are somewhat like-able this time though. At least for most of the movie, they're not as flat and 'just there to hysterically yell and die' like in the other two movies, eventhough the cliche 'violent male' and 'generic smart I'm-gonna-survive-this female' characters from the other movies are still in this one, except the obligatory 'violent male' character is white for once.There are no deaths in this movie as much as in the first one, and the ones that are present are accompanied by terrible CGI and aura of fake-ness, but the movie still manages to be interesting most of the time, due to the decent characters at because it delivers *some* answers to plot holes missing from the first Cube.If you enjoyed the first Cube movie, watch this one with low expectation, and by all means DO NOT WATCH THE THIRD ONE because it will ruin the whole series for you - it's THAT awful.This one though - worth the watch. It's a solid 'okay' B-movie.
ludvikmarki OK so the first Cube movie was extremely well made for its budget, and was a thrill ride all the way through! Compared to this movie it is an excellent movie. This movie isn't bad, but it has badly written characters, mediocre acting, and a decent story. It is pretty interesting to watch this movie, but it doesn't come close to being as good as the first one, because when it actually has its good moments, the mediocre acting and badly written characters come and haunt the good moments! You can blame the mediocre acting at the bad writing.Its worth the watch if you enjoyed the first one, but don't think its nearly as good.
sharifrashedi SPOILER WARNING: Plot was a little weak, because there were some body language clues from Kate in the very beginning that suggested she was not like the others.. also the plot revolved about the history and real life of everyone but Kate. Throughout the movie we knew something was off about Kate.I was a little disappointed in this plot since none of the characters really came up with a sound plan to "figure out" the cube. It was too much flying by the seat of their pants...Did not have the same methodological calculating attempts by the characters as portrayed in the first movie The Cube..However, was still a little entertaining to see what surprise each room held.
Leofwine_draca I admit to being a huge fan of the CUBE trilogy. The first film is obviously the best, vicious and exciting in its simplicity, while the third, CUBE ZERO, is an interesting idea that takes the form of a prequel. CUBE 2: HYPERCUBE is a straightforward sequel to the first film, with significant changes that make a difference.Although a number of characters are once again trapped inside a cube, the emphasis this time around isn't on solving puzzles and avoiding traps. Instead the characters must figure out a way to escape from their prison and to avoid the impending death which follows them at all times. There's lots of tension and interplay between the various characters, as before, and I liked the acting from the unknown cast which carries the story along.There are some good twists here, especially with the climax that heads into the fourth dimension, although with a little blood and death for people who like that kind of thing. The special effects are very average on a low budget but as usual it's the ideas which make this film work. It's not on the level of CUBE but I do appreciate the fact that they did something different instead of just doing a slavish copy for a sequel.
