Waiting. This one was a whole lot better than I thought it would be. Still a stupid teen comedy, but genuinely funny in parts, and the plot was fun.
I haven't eaten in a Chili's since I saw that movie... O_O

W-o-w. Wasnt expecting alot, but got more than I could have ever wanted. Great gore, really smart plot, good ending, way above-average acting...what more do you need?

A better sequel? Eh...the second one had some interesting points, but overall completely different feel, and didn't much like the storyline, definately nowhere near as good as the first, which is what I think at least partly inspired saw.
Haven't seen the third (prequel thing) cube ZERO yet, I've got enough interest to pick it up though.

Ya, I really cant imagine the sequel being all that great. I'll probably check it out eventually, but Im not in a rush.

You really thought the acting was above average? While I liked the character of Leaven, I couldn't say Nicole or any other cast member did an ABOVE average acting job. It's typical of the grade of movie this is.

I did really enjoy it, though. :)

PS: If you haven't already... watch House of 9. It's basically Cube, only in a house, and without traps. Okay, so maybe it's not exactly like Cube. It has the same pitch though; see how people react when they're trapped in a confined area.

I thought the ending for House of 9 was a step up from Cube's ending.

THE PREMISE
9 people are locked in a large mansion, and given instructions through an intercom. They must slowly kill one another, and the last one living wins the prize - one million euros. At first, they try to get along - but of course, there is a limit to human effort.

SPOIL SPOIL SPOIL
THE ENDING
One girl remains, and the front doors of the house open - she grabs the money and runs for the light ahead of her. But the light wasn't what she was expecting - instead, the light comes from a room with a dozen others just like her. Crouched, clutching their bags of money tightly. She won't be seeing the outside anytime soon.

Sounds cool, I'll have to check it out.

As for the acting, I didnt think they were too bad. The girl playing Helen wast great and neither was Quentin, but the rest were alot better than most movies of the sort.

*Spoiler*


I love seeing Wayne Robson in anything...shame he was offed so quick.
