	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Kim Newman Empire	"Too many low-budget sci-fi films (...) try for epic scope and fail; this one concentrates on making the best of what it's got and does it well (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Nick Schager Slant	"[It] has a 'Twilight Zone' mood that’s initially quite chilling (...) [But] the script isn’t up to the task (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Anita Gates The New York Times	"Surprisingly gripping."	POS
United States	Bob Graham SFGATE	"If Natali (...) were as comfortable with dialogue and dramatizing characters as he is with images, this first feature of his might have worked better (...) As it turned out, however, 'Cube' falls into the dreaded trap of allegory"	NEG
United States	David Nusair Reel Film	"An inventive (if inconsistent) bit of sci-fi fun (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
