Unoriginal and dull
The original Cube had an interesting idea and dissected it in an interesting way. The fact that it had no real plot was almost the point; the characters were the important factor.
I was excited when I started watching Cube 2: How could they follow it Cube? How would they change the formula? The sad answer is they didn't.
It's exactly the same as Cube with less believable characters and more silly sci-fi. In Cube no-one really worried about the plausibility of a massive cube being hidden somewhere as it didn't matter. Cube 2 spends longer worrying about the practicalities and confusing us with techno mumbo jumbo about hyper-dimensional cubes. Which just seems silly.
I won't spoil the ending just in case you do choose to watch it, but in my view it's one of the most annoying and self indulgent endings of any film.
Avoid this film. Watch anything else. Anything. -

Stylish but somewhat unsatisfying
Being a big fan of the first Cube movie I was very much looking forward to this sequel. Initially the film has promise, introducing characters that are interesting enough (of course there must always be a violent, unstable one) and extra-dimensional features of the hypercube which are pretty cool. However, rather than eventually figuring out how to get through the cube (very gratifying in the first film) these poor buggers just get more and more confused (as you would in that situation). However, I suppose it would have been too similar to the first film if they were able to navigate their way through. An interesting twist at the end is enough to make me watch the third film, but ultimately, the randomness of it all will make this film one to forget sooner than remember.
