Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaUsed a similar staging method as the first film. The Cube was a single set consisting of identical panels for the walls and the floor (in some shots it was a green screen). For the previous movie, the crew clamped large lighting gels to the outer frame of the set so they could change the color scheme, but the all-white high-tech color scheme of this film simplified the lighting, and all they had to do to change the set in regards to what room they wanted to depict was to write on the walls with a grease pen and position certain props necessary to the plot. Some shots required the use of a green screen, especially when any door was opening. Some scenes used a full box to depict the room, but it was always the same set, just modified with extra panels.
- GoofsJerry's watch has a different serial number than the watch they find in one of the rooms. This might not be a true continuity error, because in a parallel universe his wife might have got him another watch from the same brand and series.

Jerry Whitehall: How do you do, Mrs. Paley?
Mrs. Paley: Hello.
Jerry Whitehall: You don't happen to know why you're here, do you?
Mrs. Paley: Oh, dear, I was never very good at philosophy.

Featured review
Not as enjoyable as the first
Sad to say, since the first was so clever and original. This time, with a much larger budget, we are treated to special effects and noise; instead of more story or intricate dialogue.
The movie feels like a clone of the first retracing all the character archetypes and story beats, which is very odd. Any way the acting wasn't as good and nothing really was added this time around, just things taken away such as the room traps.
4/10.
