People are trapped in a series of interconnecting rooms, all cube shaped, and sometimes connecting in unexpected ways. There are gravity shifts, spacial shifts and temporal shifts between rooms, and all of this is presented in visually intriguing ways. The effects are vivid enough, but still simple compared to what we're used to seeing. It's the characters and the fast script that engages the viewer here, though.
The philosophies which come out in this movie won't move any mountains, but they're not meant to. They are only the rambling thoughts of people trapped together, trying to make something work out. Everyone reacts differently, and the script has a proper amount of foreshadowing and ambiguity to make the ending fit with everything that came before.
I'm not the type to get lost in the idea of what the cube is and how it exists. The way the story is written here overcomes that, and the ending is just a necessary way of wrapping things up. There are a hundred ways this story could have been presented, but I was very entertained by the way it was handled. I like this better than the other two because of the characters and all they went through to reach the end.
