Masterpiece of the latter 90s

Rating: 10/10 (5 May 2020)

Not so many movies can make a long-lasting impression on me. But this one is exceptional.
Cube is a top-notch spine-tingling thriller which kept me on the edge of my seat all the way through. The idea of people being put into a cube is simple and brand new at the same time. The reason why they are there perplexes the viewer's mind and, despite the movie is not star-studded, the actors were making the most of the roles.
I am also startled by the fact that it was shoot in a single room and, so as to emulate a large space, they were merely changing panels on the walls. Well done, Vincenzo Natali!
I was always wondering why, having won a wide appeal, the franchise was frozen and sold away by Vincenzo himself. Evidently, he put a part of his soul to this project. I doubt we will ever find out his motives.
