Refreshing

Rating: 8/10 (6 August 2016)

This movie is about a group of people trapped inside a gigantic cube, which also consists of thousands of cubic rooms, some of them with traps inside, each trap unique and efficient in slaughtering humans. Even if this kind of premise has been done to death already (Saw), Cube seemed refreshing to me. It's a very mysterious movie, the ending itself left open to the viewer's imagination, it's not really about the cube itself but about the relation between the characters and their capacity to overcome the human ego in order to solve the cubic maze. Can't really say that the human relations are what kept me interested, they're not bad but there's always that one cliché character that will make you roll your eyes, I was more fascinated about the cube itself, the reasons and ideas behind it, so yea, Cube will probably stir your imagination, later parts of the movie deepening you even further into mystery and interpretation. It's a great movie, a bit dragged down by the average characters, nonetheless a must-see.
