This movie for me was boring and difficult to understand

The cube no longer has an interesting design but is as generic and uninteresting as ever. I say 'cube' not 'cubes', because all of the movie clearly happens on the exact same small and boring set.The camera is spinning around the cube all zoomed in for long, puke-inducing amounts of time. I really felt sick and my eyes started to hurt somewhere in the middle of watching this. Whoever filmed this overdid that spinning to create fake tension. It felt truly obnoxious.The characters are somewhat like-able this time though. At least for most of the movie, they're not as flat and 'just there to hysterically yell and die' like in the other two movies, eventhough the cliche 'violent male' and 'generic smart I'm-gonna-survive-this female' characters from the other movies are still in this one, except the obligatory 'violent male' character is white for once.There are no deaths in this movie as much as in the first one, and the ones that are present are accompanied by terrible CGI and aura of fake-ness, but the movie still manages to be interesting most of the time, due to the decent characters at because it delivers *some* answers to plot holes missing from the first Cube.If you enjoyed the first Cube movie, watch this one with low expectation, and by all means DO NOT WATCH THE THIRD ONE because it will ruin the whole series for you - it's THAT awful.This one though - worth the watch. It's a solid 'okay' B-movie.

Cube 2 was an immensely convoluted film with very few like able characters. It tries to mirror the first movie, and comes off as superficial. It lacks the substance of the first film, the same substance that made it tense and established the mood that should have been part of the second installment. I give it 2 stars simply because it has a more interesting aesthetic than the first, but not much else to offer. The ending was just your typical, predictable plot twist that hardly added anything to the film, and the overall back story presented in segments throughout the film is nothing new. I only suggest watching cube 2 as a comparison to the first movie, as it gives an over view of the directing and writing styles that make the movies each their own. It sacrifices the practical design of the first movie for something more abstract and complex, which in my opinion dissolves the tension, and suspense you would expect of a sequel to Cube.

This film is about a group of individuals who got kidnapped into a hypercube, where any existing logic and laws of physics as we know do not apply. "Cube 2 Hypercube" is just as scary and as thrilling as the first! Even though the hypercube is white and bright, it's even more lethal than the previous cube that was dark and mysterious. This time round, anything can happen, making the plot unpredictable, it also maintains suspense and kept me on edge throughout. The ending is ambiguous and open to interpretation, which makes the whole hypercube even more mysterious. I really enjoyed it!
