Cube Summary
MPAA Rating: R
Director: Vincenzo Natali
Genres: Science Fiction
Rating:
This low-budget science-fiction drama, winner of a 1997 Toronto Film Festival prize for "Best Canadian First Feature," depicts the plight of a group of people clad in prison-style uniforms and trapped in futuristic cube-like metal cells. Their memories are hazy; no one can recall how they got there. Alderson (Julian_Richings) awakens in a cell, seeks an exit, and arrives in an adjacent cube where he's sliced and diced. Former cop Quentin (Maurice Dean-Wint) becomes the group leader, and he's challenged by conspiracy theorist Dr. Holloway (Nicky_Guadagni). Government worker Worth (David_Hewlett) remembers a past government link to the project. A discovery that the cubes have numerical codes suggests study by math-student Leaven (Nicole deBoer) while former thief Rennes (Wayne_Robson) knows some escape tricks. However, the extreme behavior of Kazan (Andrew_Miller) becomes a threat to their survival. The film was also shown at the 1997 Vancouver Film Festival. Bhob Stewart, Rovi
