I'm not dying in a f*cking rat maze!

How did I get here? Why am I here? How do I get out? Can I do it myself, or do I need someone to help me? Sounds like questions all of us who are trapped in a cubical life ask every day. These are some of the same questions being asked by a group in a fantastic cube, where a mistake in a decision can cost you your life.
Worth (David Hewlett) had it down. We are so concerned with our pathetic little lives that we fail to see the big picture. That allows others to manipulate and control us. It's not a conspiracy; it's just that we have ceased to care. Nature abhors a vacuum, so someone will take control while we look the other way.
Kazan (Andrew Miller) is autistic, and shows how we tend to dismiss the less fortunate when it suits us.
The cop Quentin (Maurice Dean Wint) and the social worker Halloway (Nicky Guadagni) showed the opposite sides of the debate over what our society values - people or order.
Those are just my observations, and I am sure others will make their own interpretations. It is horror and drama and a thriller that really makes you think.
