Cube is a classic and I love it

Great idea, clever setup (reusing same setup over and over) but the acting is lacking and it shows. I've not seen any of the sequels but judging by the ratings, it went down hill 😄

If only the physics were not so absurd. Or if they are absurd, then it should not only be at very specific points to help the plot but all the time.

I just watched this for the first time a few weeks ago. It's free on YouTube, I believe. Anyway, the acting was a little hammy as you might expect, but the concept was executed very well. I definitely enjoyed it.
