Incredible. Just incredible.
I find this more terrifying and suspenseful than any other horror movie. My heart was racing every second and I definitely get why so many people liked it.It’s so unique and makes you think/feel so much for each character— whether that be hatred or sympathy. I loved it and don’t think it’s overhyped AT ALL. People have just too high of standards or something because this was incredible.
However, I don’t think I could ever watch it again, but it just has that impact where you don’t need to.

Mugunghwaa koetchii Piat Samnida...
Berkonsep tentang survival game, Squid game menjadi series korea terepic di genrenya. Saya menonton series ini sebenarnya awalnya karena penasaran dari review filmnya di TikTok, banyak yang membahas series ini. Menceritakan Seong Gi Hoon pemuda miskin dan terlilit banyak hutang - dia diundang untuk mengikuti sebuah permainan di suatu pulau, awalnya Seong Gi Hoon tidak begitu faham tentang itu, namun setelah menerima undangan itu dan pergi menuju pulau tersebut Seong Gi Hoon mulai menyadari bahwa undangan tersebut adalah undangan acara game berhadiah uang yang sangat banyak namun harus mengorbankan para pemain lain. Dari segi CGI series ini sangat bagus ya hampir tidak bisa dibedakan mana CGI dan mana yang asli, dari segi konsep cerita mungkin biasa saja ya karena series ini sebenarnya rilis dekat dengan perilisan Alice in Borderland dan berkonsep hampir sama dengan series tersebut, ada series dan film lain dengan konsep yang sama - cerita semacam ini memang sepertinya sudah biasa. Dari segi permainan yang disajikan mungkin unik dan menarik ya karena menyajikan permainan-permainan yang berasal dari korea selatan. Warna dominan di series ini adalah Pink dan Hijau ditambah kuning langsat kuat yang matte, suasana series ini lebih banyak menegangkan dengan beberapa life meaning yang bagus, suasana sedihpun sangat tercipta di beberapa episode, untuk menghibur anda - series ini menurutku sangat layak di tonton. Ada adegan yang saya kurang begitu suka di series ini dan menurutku merusak suasan film, salah satunya adalah adegan kamar mandi dan adegan polisi yang menyamar.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Pretty Good
Squid Game was good, but not as good as other dramas I've seen. I thought the characters were good, great soundtrack. However I feel like, as much as Gihun is likeable, people forget that he's a deadbeat dad who, at the end, was a little too willing to abandon his daughter to go back to the Squid Game. I think it's a very enjoyable show and easily rewatchable. I wish Ali lived, I would have loved to see him make it further in the Game but I understand that he had to die to show Sangwoo's more sinister side. Squid Game was good, not the best, but good.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Prefiro meus BL's
Não gosto desse tipo de série, meu negócio são BL's, mas assisti devido à pressão do oba-oba, que foi grande. Afinal, não é todo dia que uma série coreana ganha o mundo assim, e pelas minhas pesquisas, uma série que foi muito subestimada por sinal. A série é uma super produção, é visível que o investimento está no nível Hollywoodiano. Roteiro com muitos furos (acho que são a deixa para a segunda temporada), fotografia impecável, direção muito boa em cada detalhe, desde a quantidade de figurantes, aos figurinos, aos cenários, ao realismo...A atuação é impecável, isso é indiscutível, mas meu único vínculo foi com o protagonista Seong Gi Hoon, já que é o único que a história é contada do início, apesar de seu caráter duvidoso no início, ele fez eu me apaixonar pelo personagem.
A ost é bem coerente com a série, mais instrumental e melancólica, como um prenúncio das mortes.
Enfim, não e ruim, mas prefiro meus BL's. Se vc é dorameiro que gosta de outras temáticas provavelmente vai gostar.

Who would really do this for money?
A Korean twist to the Japanese action Alice in borderland which I’m a big fan of. It was nice to see the cultural differences in two similar plots.There seems to be an intentional difference between regular kdramas and international blockbusters like this and Parasite. Certainly made for international buzz. I heard the overhype from family and coworkers and it fits their taste more than it did with me.
However I do enjoy the cast and have watched a few of their other works. I think the ending was well enough if the main character simply went to take care of his daughter I don’t understand the message of seeking revenge/going back for more because unlike in Alice in borderland, the humans have a choice of being there. He was a good guy but unpredictable which could be frustrating at times.
There is no story line to continue in regards to a second season, I think it’s more just for the action of it all. Game playing is an interesting genre to many I suppose however It’s forgettable for me unless the entire world bombards me with anticipation like they did for s1 causing me to not be able to form my own expectations which will result in another disappointment. I however did enjoy those mild moments of reality in between the characters admission/re-admission into the game, which explained why they would ever be so desperate as to return to to this crazy game (and no, none of them were justifiable imo )

Parasite it was not!
I had such high expectations for this drama. I expected it to be a brilliant, sardonic social commentary like Parasite. Well, I think I'm being unfair comparing it to the film.It was good. Very good. But it could have been better. So much more than what it is. I hope a second season would add more depth and make the story more rich.
I love the acting. The actors have wonderfully portrayed their characters. I found the evil, rich VIPs to be bland, stereotypical and lackluster. The story feels incomplete. I liked O Henry's "the last leaf" inspired death-bed scene albeit it wasn't very satisfying.

Too much blood.
I remember back in 2021 when everyone was obsessed with this show and at that time i simply couldn’t even hear about it anymore. Two days ago i was scrolling through netflix and decided to give this drama a chance. First of all: NEVER TRUST ANYONE and don’t “fall” in love with any character bc they WILL DIE.Secondly: there’s away too much dead and blood in this show and that’s something that i personality don’t like. I also didn’t liked the ending to be honest. And the reason why they did this game like honestly fck you. It’s kinda of hard to watch too. Overall it was good bc the actores made it good.

It was Ok, but not upto the Hype
My Conclusion: ? It is good yet Overrated drama. Because i honestly think there are many other good and more best kdramas which can be given more attention and somehow are more suitable and good to watch. There's no doubt this drama wasn't good. And the acting was so good. But the useless murdering & there's nothing to learn from it except not to trust anyone easily or teamwork in tug of war task. Lol, that things can be taught through some simpler and good concepts too. I'm not of the type who watched a series and when it finishes ends it. The series actually goes around all time in my head. And i always assume and think what will happen next, if it would have S2, are there any chances for a season 2, was the ending sufficient & things like that. One of the most funny thing is if it doesn't gets season 2 than the role of the Policeman is a waste because it was of no use actually ?. But if it gets S2 maybe it'll make a story.My Conclusion: ?

Absolutely recommend this show
This show was amazing but sad we lost Byeok near the end and it does show that people will do anything for money even if it involves death and playing games, not only this but it also shows how close people become near the end and it made me cry to see Ji Yeong sacrifice herself to Byeok in the marble game and for Byeok to get stabbed by Sang Woo. Yeah it might be bloody and gory, but it was amazing and I cannot wait for season 2 and hope we get to see the actress for Byeok but maybe she plays a new character and also the actress for Ji Yeong too please, I knew it was a popular show and my mum never allowed me to watch it until I watched it secretly on KissAsian website, now I don't regret watching it because I loved it.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Gripping Story & Compelling Characters
All hail the show that first got me interested in k-dramas!❤ If you're looking for an action-packed story with a grim dark setting, you've come to the right place. Squid Games is not for the feint of heart - it's gruesome, visceral, and haunting with lots of on-screen violence and gore.
❤ OMG, the characters were utterly unforgettable. Some will break your heart; some will betray you; and some will make you want to scream and laugh all at the same time. The characters are multi-faceted with understandable motives. It can be quite unnerving to understand why a character is acting a certain way even as their actions put others in dangerous or perilously situations.
❤ All of the actors gave powerhouse performances, but I have to give an extra amount of credit to Lee Jung Jae as Seong Gi Hoon. I disliked him so much during the first episode, but he somehow managed to turn me into his fan by the end of the series.
❤ The setting, music, and general vibe was atmospheric and haunting. No expense was spared on the production, and it showed. It had such a polished look and feel as to make everything feel very, very real.
❤ This has a lot of social commentary looking at the problems and challenges people face in a society that has pretty much ignored or cast them off. It certainly is thought provoking.
