Review of Cube

Cube (1997)
Vanitas vanitarum, omnia vanitas
3 April 2004
life is just a WORTH-LESS (like the name of one character) game. And we try to solve it. It's no exit. No Big Brother watching us. Who is to blame for the cube, for what is going there? The God? Or just us?

The movie suggest the worthless of the journey by the coming of the characters back to rooms where they were in the before. They don't learn anything from this trip. All they want is to escape. And for that you can do anything, no? Kill or be killed. And that for what? To get to another room. A room like the others. It reminded me of Sartre and Camus. And "Iona" by Sorescu, it's a great play of a roumanian writer. So shame it's not very known. I don't now very much about directing or acting. I can't comment on that. If you watch this movie and you start asking yourself the Question "Why ?" then this movie wasn't worthless after all.
