Easily the best science fiction movie of the 1990s!

Rating: Null/10 (20 January 2002)

'Cube' is the perfect example of why mega-budgets and special effects are NOT what is important about science fiction movies. Ideas are. A simple thing, but something the hordes of 'Phantom Menace' and 'Fellowship Of The Ring' fans fail to grasp. More fools them.
'Cube' is low budget fantastic cinema at it's best. Comparable in achievement to 'Carnival Of Souls', 'Night Of The Living Dead', 'Dark Star' and 'Eraserhead'. 'Cube' is literally a puzzle, and "the answer" is whatever each viewer makes it. Movie-goers who prefer to be spoon-fed will find it frustrating, those that like to think for themselves will be delighted. This movie has more in common with Kafka and Abe than 'Star Trek'. If you think that's pretentious then 'Cube' probably isn't the movie for you. Otherwise, do not miss seeing this movie! A future classic.
