Just totally worth it.

Visually excellent, the dark broody streets of run down neighbourhoods contrasted with the pastel, immaculate high contrast world of the game, Superbly cast and acted, the characters are well written, their desperation made palpable and importantly, all too believable. Kept me invested throughout with episode 6 being one of my favourite and most emotionally resonant episodes of television I'd seen in a while. Goes a bit off the boil towards the end which was my least favourite part and almost undoes some of the earlier good work but overall entertaining and thoroughly enjoyable.

A perfect opening and great second episode , is let down by below average follow up episodes , which are unable to achieve the tensions or intrigue presented in earlier episodes. It may be masterpiece for those who have find death game genre through squid game, but the series death game personally didn't do much for me because I have expirenced the games and tension and political commentary from superior servings such as Kaiji and thousands of other death battle manga, Liar Game being the best .

extremely disappointing idea theft So once there was "The most dangerous game" (you see "game" in the title?) where shipwreckes survivors are hunted by Count Zaroff and if they survive they're free. Then on the "survive or win" we have Cube, Saw, Death race, Hunger games, Battle royale (already the most ripped off in Squid Game, As the gods will (also extremely ripped off in Squid Game). So here the theme is the bleak today's world where a father can't keep a job and gain money for his family. So an invite comes for a game where you can gain big money. But soon contestants die. My interest di... read the rest.

Whilst not an entirely original idea, "Squid Game" is done with enough inspiration, to warrant at least, a look.

That said, it took me quite some time to tune in. The idea didn't immediately appeal to me, as it did a lot of other viewers. I found the first season, creative, colourful and more than little disturbing. Of course, children's games combined with murder, was never going to be comfortable mix.

I do believe season one is markedly better than the second go around. Season two offers more of the same, with less of the intrigue inherent in the first season. The introduction of blat... read the rest.

Masterpiece in every way! It's super interesting. Not a single dull moment in this show.

However, in season 2, seems like liberal fascists infiltrated in this show and meddled with this it. So, we got transgender character who identifies himself as a "woman"and goes to women restroom with the rest ladies. Others also refer to him as "her". I'm so tired from this crap. Man is man and woman is woman, period. No matter how many times you liberal fascists try to put your idiotism and dirty agenda into movies and shows, this fact will remain fact and you only enrage people more with your forced... read the rest.

Season 1 was amazing. MY favorite show probably. I had made a costume within that month because Halloween was so close and costumes werent made yet. The 2nd season though was far from that. I give the first season a 95%. I give season 2 and 50%. maybe since the 2nd season is split in half and made into a 3rd by netflix, but the character building was not good. They were lazy and reused half the games. Just felt corney and rushed. Out of such an amazing 2nd season, they had so much they could have done to follow up and they really dropped the ball on it.
