Cube 2: Hypercube Movie Review
Just as in the original Cube film, a group of strangers awaken in a square room with no memory how they got there. They must maneuver from room to room as they attempt to find their way out of this hyper-cube. Unlike in the original, all the rooms are white, and very few are actually booby trapped--and the ones that are are, well, uninteresting. This movie relies WAY too much on CGI, and unfortunately, the CGI is all pretty awful.
It doesn't get any better than this
The characters are almost carbon copies of the original film--the caring motherly type, the back-stabbing jerk, the math genius--you get the picture--and other than maybe Jerry (Neil Crone, It), they are pretty unlikable. The story becomes overly convoluted, as we discover the hyper-cube includes alternate universes and time distortions, among other ridiculousness. The rooms are far less interesting than in the original--it's as if the people making this movie were more interested in what they could do in post-production than actually presenting a decent film. Watch this movie if you are having a Cube marathon--otherwise, skip it.
