This is a treasure hidden under an absence of reputation...

Rating: Null/10 (23 December 2000)

Cube is one of the most terrifying films I've seen. Freaky to death, you almost become insane yourself. The story is about six people who are emprisoned in a cubic complex. There are deadly traps in some of the rooms...There is one gate in the whole complex that gets you out of the place...The budget in this film was low...they wasted half of it on the first two minutes. But, for a low-budget film, it has very good special and gory effects and the actors are great too. The background is always the same, but the walls are different from one room from another. Paranoia, intolerance, fear, these subjects are all important in Cube. The film is also full of surprising twists. The first time you see it, you just can't believe it...the music is mainly made of creepy samples and contributes to the freaky atmosphere of the movie. Disturbing, intelligent, well acted, very well directed, wow, that's one huge discovery! Excellent, awesome. I know this ain't a masterpiece, but it is still too great for a 8. So now my choice is clear, even though you may think I'm too generous, I have to give it the mark it deserves. 9/10
