Cube 2: Hypercube

2002 Canadian film

Cube 2: Hypercube is a 2002 science-fiction film about several strangers trapped inside a hypercube. While the name suggests it is a sequel to the 1998 film Cube, Cube 2: Hypercube does not depend on the events of the first film to set the stage.

Directed by Andrzej Sekula. Written by Sean Hood, Ernie Barbarash and Lauren McLaughlin.

Jerry

  • You don't think the guy who makes the toilets for the Space Shuttle gets to see the plans for the rest of it?
  • Who the hell are "them", anyway? The government? The mafia? Aliens?
  • Kate, I'm a healthy married male white engineer who enjoys reading horror novels and eating chocolate ice cream. As well as climbing around psycho jungle gyms.

Kate

  • This place changes your perception about what's possible.
  • God, you know, I wish I was just…smarter.
  • He's a high-tech genius whose morals make Muammar Kadafi look like Mother Teresa!
  • Holy shit, variable time speed rooms!

Mrs. Paley

edit
  • Maybe we're in Hell!
  • I'm not crazy, and I'm not hard of hearing, either! [turns to the wall] I told you no one would believe me!
  • Some things should never be created! They exist for theoretical purposes only!

Sasha

  • I'm just blind, not retarded.

Simon Grady

  • I figure he knows something, something that he didn't want anyone to know. That's usually why people are tortured.
  • Jesus. The gravity shifted. Wow!
  • Don't be so stupid, Kate. You know time works differently in this place.

Dialogue

edit
Kate: I thought that you said you'd been wandering these rooms for hours.
Jerry: Yeah, that's the weird thing, isn't it. Each one of these rooms has six of these doors or portals, but no matter how many different doors or portals I go through I always wound up in the same three rooms. Until now.

Simon: Alright, let's get some real answers.
Jerry: His answer was suicide. Not exactly a comforting thought.

Kate: Are you okay? Did you hit your head?
Max: Yeah. I slipped. It's the wall…it wiggled.
Kate: Are you sure you're okay?

Jerry: Well, I signed a confidentiality agreement.
Simon: Given our current situation, I'd say it's null and void! Jesus Christ!

Kate: Let's just say we are in this…hypercube, whatever. Does this diagram show us how to get out?
Jerry: Well, uh, no. You see, a hypercube isn't supposed to be real; it's just a theoretical construct.
Kate: Well that makes me feel better.

Jerry: Sixty thousand, six hundred and fifty nine rooms? Christ.
Kate: This place must be huge.
Mrs. Paley: Oh yes, yes. In a hypercube, there could be sixty million rooms.
Jerry: She could be right.
Simon: There's a comforting thought.

Julia: What's wrong? What the hell? Where am I?
Max: That's the million dollar question.

Julia: Hey, is this your jacket?
Max: No.
Julia: Well then how did I…oh, I must have had more to drink last night than I thought.

Max: What are you so scared of, anyway?
Simon: I just saw my fucking head taken off by something or other, how's that for starters?

Simon: So here's the deal. I'm a private investigator. I'm on a case. Missing persons.
Jerry: I think given our current situation this counts as irony.

Kate: Look, I know this seems hopeless…
Sasha: It is hopeless!
Kate: No it's not! I'm going to figure this out.
Sasha: Figure it out. Trust me, precious, if I haven't figured it out, you sure as shit aren't going to.
