Fell down some rabbit hole on reddit about how "The Cube" was getting a Japanese remake. Everyone seemed to think the original was just good enough.

So I took time out and downloaded and watched it.

/redditors are not film critics. This was bad. Irredeemable. Just a generic film, probably would have done well on Netflix.

The one positive is that I can see how it could be done for a very low budget. Probably it was, nowadays for sure it could be, would be, the entire thing filmed against a green-screen and topped up with CGI. But it would have been better if it hadn't been made at all...
