Only seemed a bit low budget at times, like with a few lines being acted. The low-mid budget makes me admire it more. Most of it was shot with hand-held cameras, and it looks good.

This movie was entertaining, interesting and not too long. A simple idea that really worked. The horror was adequate. The mystery worked for as long as it needed. Tension at the right times...
Some say the characters are cliché. I don't know what charcaters people expected in a movie like this. I think the characters serve their purpose very well. Don't forget they were selected for being such characters, which kind of helps them being the stereotypes they are.
I'd have like more of a better conclusion at the end.

This is a classic low-budget sci-fi film that delivers good the chills and agony. Really good story and satisfying throughout the movie

"Cube" is entertaining. I enjoyed the mystery and the math. There was a lot of tension between the characters which added to a sense of hopelessness during the group's attempted escapes. The movie has plenty of social commentary that comes in the form of hatred between members of the group. The Cube itself is a neat creation but the movie's ending was a bit of a letdown as tension builds up throughout. A lot of questions are unanswered but having them remain curiosities adds to the film's appeal.

Either the darkest and greatest sci-fi mystery/horror, or the worst. Depends on the mood your in going into this. Definitely the best in the trilogy, I know right, 2 more cube's to go.

The acting was bad, and a better end could have been designed.

For being so low budget, it is a compelling story. Absolutely the psychological thriller you want to watch if you are limited to movies that are free on YouTube.

I can’t believe that this is a cult classic.
Yeah, it’s a cool idea, but the acting, dialogue, cinematography and editing: holy shit.
It fails on just about every basic level that a movie can fail at.

2.5/10

It’s been awhile since I last watched this film and still good as the first time around. I would like to see a remake because I think it’s a smart idea for a plot and with a good cast and director behind it would probably turn out great.

Really tight and concise sci-fi horror with some interesting math and logic puzzles. New questions arise every few minutes and much of the mystery is retained through to the end. Since this entire movie takes place on a set that is a single room, there's a sense of it being very claustrophobic and outside of reality.

I had a full belly laugh the first time the music played with the vocalist going "ha-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch"

Seeing this 1998 movie in 2020 makes me think it must have been mind-blowing when it was released. It is amazing.

@arielrodriguez The crazy part for me is that I saw this on the SciFi channel one day randomly. No fanfare just showed up and that would have been a little after 1998. I got hooked and watched the whole thing. And then for a while I th ought maybe I had rose tinted memory. And eventually I found it again and dang... nope still a good film.

the movie is interesting and the concept is cool, it has that thing that many movies in the 80s/90s had where dialogues feel very....fragmented, strange and incoherent. I don't hate it though, they give a certain feeling to the movie that is just...different.

I enjoyed it, so I would recommend it, but only to people that are not bothered by the strange dialogues

I'm really impressed how good that movie aged. More than 20 Years and except for a few cgi effects it is still a very good sci-fi mystery. Due to being very visually gory I wouldn't recommend it to everybody but if you don't have a problem with that you should give it a try. I also liked the dense story which is told completely inside the cubes from start to end.

I'm honestly really surprised by the high rating. I may be more disappointed due to the hype surrounding this film, but I was really shocked with how awful this was. The concept is certainly interesting, but it is executed terribly, even considering when the movie was made. The acting is the first issue - in many instances, it's just bad. Dialogue is cheesy and unrealistic. And finally, the plot has no semblance of resolution, and there's not even detail enough provided for the viewer to make their own interesting interpretations. Overall, just a really mediocre film.
