don't be fooled

Rating: 1/10 (17 February 2003)

Don't be fooled by all the positive comments here... The Cube is not a good movie, it isn't that fun, it isn't worth more than 15 minutes of your time, but it sure would be better if it were only 15 minutes long, as that's all the time you need to get this movie: different people are stuck in a cube and have to get along or die because the government blah blah blah. Toss in a little science fiction and you've something about as gripping as the time the people got stuck on the elevator on "General Hospital." That's not to say it's a completely bad movie... it's not. It's okay considering it's an indie B-movie, but it's nowhere near "the best movie ever made" or the 7/10 rating it's currently got on IMDB. There's a reason this movie was never released in the theater, a reason you've never heard of it before, a reason the only person telling you it's good is also the same guy who likes *all* anime. Get it?
