2002 Directed by Andrzej Sekula
The sequel to the low budget first film Cube. This time the prisoners find them selves in a more advanced cube environment that they must escape from before they are killed. A science fiction film where space and time have more than one path.

**DO NOT READ ON IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW THE ENDING****
it's bad.
"i told you not to watch the sequel!" me, saying to myself as i am preparing to watch the third one
Bigger isn't always Better! Bad move on their part switching out directors! With more money in their budget they decided to let their Geek Flag Fly in all of its geeky glory! I'm sure they were all high-fiving each other over this Geeks Gone Wild flick! While us non-geekerino's like me were saying Hey... what's in it for me!
While they increased its Geek factor by a thousand! And wowed us with their superior brainpower they also managed to significantly decrease the tension, suspense, thrills, likeability factor, comprehension, inventive kills, atmosphere of impending doom, claustrophobic inducing fear!
HyperCube equals Hyper-Bore!
💀HOOPTOBER 7.0💀

A group of strangers wakes up in a sealed room with no means of escape. The eight people -- Kate, Simon, Sasha, Max, Jerry, Julia, Mrs. Paley and Col. Maguire -- must find their way out of the room. But more rooms await them, and each one is increasingly dangerous. Also, it appears physical laws do not apply in this strange and deadly environment.
A definite step down from the first (which wasn’t the greatest film ever made) and just a confusing mess. Cube 2 is almost a copy of the first but with a bigger budget and more strangers who are all lying to each other but are all connected.
These kind of films make me appreciate the Saw movies much more, and I think there is another one after this, but I don’t think have the energy to sit thorough another film like this.
We were warned. It has been lurking on the radar for years. Part of me is still holding a curiosity. Even when the original wasn't all for me. From the world to the mystery: the possibilities were endless but this was painful.
Let me make a confession. When it comes to completing franchises. It is a bumpy ride. There was always a plan to see this directly after the first a few years ago; but that blew up and having seen this now: I don't regret.
One of the elements that had me invested in this world was the mystery. Never really liked the original as said before; but the sense of unknowing and waking up in this place was…
Cube 2: Hypercube sucks shit and has the same aesthetic as a DVD menu but is somehow more boring.
A really cool idea, but they don't really know what to do with it, plus the bad cgi, poor writing and questionable acting doesn't help.
Well colour me surprised, "Cube 2: Hypercube" was a heck of a lot better than I had anticipated. I was never much of a fan of the original and I threw this film on as background filler, however, as it kept playing I became more and more invested in the story. Rather than going down the body horror route (there's still some to be found here) this film takes a more scientific, theoretical approach.
I'll be the first to admit that the characters and acting were below par. Thankfully though that's not where my enjoyment came from, I loved the pseudo-theoretical science that was driving this film. Essential this film is "Interstellar" in a box, but with 0.1% of the…
Hooptober 7/31
You know I almost have to respect how aggressively shitty this sequel is. The way it fully commits to every story beat and character archetype of the first while simultaneously being unnecessarily bigger and monumentally stupider in every way. This should be taught in classes on lazy sequel tropes and why they fail. It has more characters, but they all fill the exact same roles in the exact same ways and with even worse acting. The math element returns but is all completely theoretical which in turn takes out all the problem solving, you know the main draw of the original? The sets look more expensive but are more banal than the first and the traps now involve…
