Cube (1997)

Cube was named best Canadian debut feature at Toronto last year, and there's no questioning Natali, clearly a visionary, is an important new talent.

If writer-director Vincenzo Natali, storyboard artist for Keanu Reeve's Johnny Mnemonic, were as comfortable with dialogue and dramatizing characters as he is with images, this first feature of his might have worked better.

Surprisingly gripping.

[Director Vincenzo] Natali's handling of mood and pace leave Cube one of the tightest horror-thrillers of the late '90s.

...an inventive (if inconsistent) bit of sci-fi fun.

The lack of information, the strange Jack Kirbyesque details on the walls and the absence of any outside world makes the environment of the film timeless and suitably, subtly existential.

Nem mesmo os diálogos pedestres e as atuações medianas conseguem destruir o interesse gerado por um conceito interessante, ainda que mal desenvolvido.

A bizarre, frightening, and clever new low-budget movie with a "Twilight Zone"-ish premise.

One of the smartest, most nail-biting thrillers in EON's

Cube is a film boxed in by its own intriguing central premise.

The film's clever gimmick holds up well, despite a cold, clinical tone.

For the six trapped characters in this film their own warps are their worst enemies.
