First off, there's no "The".

I adore the 1st Cube...one of my favourite sci-fi horror flicks of the decade. Even though I do enjoy them, I'll take this over any of the Saw movies any day.

It's visually stunning, with some great deaths, a cool plot, surprisingly good acting (nothing stellar, but way better than you'd expect) and a perfect ending. If you haven't seen it, do so right away.

I haven't bothered with the sequels yet, but I've heard some bad things - especially about Cube Zero.

I loved all of them. The original is definitely the best though. They're one of the more original series I've seen.

Dug the first one a lot. The second had me scratching my head in confusion but it had it's moments. As for the other one its such a quality cinematic experience that it hasn't been released over here yet for me to check it out :D

I actually loved them all. Cube was fantastic and is up there in my favoutrite sci-fi movies. It's intelligent, clever and original. Lots of fun and throwing in political views made the movie just that much better.
Cube 2:Hypercube wasn't quite as good as the original. Seemed a bit redundant but again, I loved it.
cube Zero wasn't good from a horror or sci-fi standpoint but it had it's good points. it refered back to the first movie which I really liked, and I also love when movies talk about religion so the ending here was great.

I have to admit, I prefer Cube 2: Hypercube. I just personally enjoy it more. Story, characters, music, SFX, gore... it's all there. A serious upgrade from the original.

Cube Zero was just bleh, though.
