Just watched the worst film in history :(

The Cube -
It was on the other night, the readup in the tv mag looked quite good and the reviewer gave it 3 out of 4 stars, so I decided to tape it for another night. (*note to self* dont believe the tv mags).

That another night came last night and I sat down to watch it, the story is that there are 7 people (seen better acting on eastenders) trapped in this cube thing and there are doors on each of the 4 walls, 1 on ceiling and 1 on the floor.

Behind some doors are traps and some just another cubular room, a lot of fast forwarding later and it appears that the whole of the film is set inside these rooms (guessing they used a quater of the budget of the Blair Witch Project

).

I forwarded it to the end and 1 bloke solves the puzzle and walks into a bright light. Brilliant :mad:

Anyone else waste an hour of there time on this rubbish. It was that bad, it was comical.

Cant say I have watched that, but if you had seen The Cube then you may consider it a contender

Whoa, didnt think I was going to find anyone who liked the film, let alone a whole thread of people

to tell you the truth I just thought the film was too flat and had no story.

I know that the storyline was so far-fetched that it must have been hard for the characters to pull off a believable performance, but at times the acting was rubbish, when the blonde haired woman was sticking up for the handicapped lad, you could see she was reading script and not acting very well.

And to the person who analysed me as to thinking that all low budget films are rubbish, thats not the case at all, I loved Blair Witch and have many others on dvd, I just dont like films where they have a 14ft by 14ft room for the whole film and change the colour of the glass to make a new scene.

So who's going to enlighten me to what happens in the other 2 cube films,

Do they get stuck in a octagonal room, triangular maybe????

I dont mind some episodes of Family Guy but I think that American Dad which is normally on after is better, I find that the characters are better and the humour is on a higher level.

Looks like XXX The Next Level is best off avoiding, the first one was a bit too much anyway so I didnt have high hopes for the 2nd, I quite like Ice Cube though, the Friday series were pretty good.

The general feeling from the thread is that one mans "bad film" is the next mans "classic", and the thing I find quite funny is that just because I didnt like one film where you have to think (yes I did get the point of cube) then im apparently a single minded action fan who cant handle thinking during a film.

There are plenty of "no action" films out that I have seen and have enjoyed and a lot of films I own are low budget dvds. eg Blue Crush, Blair Witch and many others.

The thing I didnt like about Cube was the weak unbelievable acting, same scenes, boring traps and no amount of thinking was going to make that a good film in my opinion.
