Cube
I've been meaning to check this one out for a while and finally found it in the Drama section. Strange. This movie is about six random strangers who are drugged and put in a giant shifting cube/maze. There are hundreds of rooms and some of them are rigged with traps. I would have liked to see more of the rooms, but it was still a very cool movie. There was limited gore, but when it happens, it counts! 4 out of 5.
Characters:
- Leaven: Math student. She figures out how to escape the Cube, but gets stabbed on the way out.
- David: Guy that helped design part of the Cube. Pretty anti-social, and in this group of people, it's easy to see why. Also stabbed.
- Quentin: Cop who takes charge of the group. Squished between rooms.
- Kazan: Mental guy who ends up being a human calculator.
- Helen: Doctor who falls to her death.
- Rennes: Professional escape artist... who fails miserably and gets his face melted off.
The Totals:
- Body Count: 6
- Weapons Used: Wire, acid, a metal pipe, and boots.
- Breast Shots: 0
- Moments where characters are mysteriously unable to run from certain death: 0
- Ominous thunderstorms: 0
- Explosions: 0
