RE: Squid game, over hyped or worth it?

in #squidgame3 years ago

Overhyped. Story and character choices were unrealistic, violence and constant headshots each episdoe were just exploitive and didn't add to story. After every episode I felt depressed by the end. I waded through it thinking that there would be something redeeming eventually as it was #1 on netflix, but it was a false hope. For those who haven't seen it, I guarantee you can find something better to watch.

Sort:

I think this is what made the show what it is. They didn't find a way to maneuver things into the happy ending that a lot of shows do, instead of giving me the sad truth that I thought wouldn't happen, but it does.

Perhaps that is why I didn't enjoy it: in each episode I anticipated the unhappy ending so I found the show very predictable.

That's very true!

Interesting view!
