Squid Game

SEASON 2 REVIEW It would have been better if I used these 7 hours to watch Satantango or War and Peace (1965) This second season is not up to par with the first (although the first is not a masterpiece), but it is a good series, since once it starts it is impossible for it to bore you and lose your attention. Although I believed that this second season is unnecessary and that it would just be another attempt by Netflix to generate more money based on things that worked more than they had planned, this second season was justified and even added interesting things. One of the most interesting things was the parallelism with the matrix, having two options, whether to stay or leave. Staying is continuing to live a lie, not wanting to accept reality and believing that they will finally be able to get rid of their mistakes even though the results may be fatal. On the other hand, leaving is accepting the harsh reality and facing all the problems, even though they may be. If things don't go so well for them in life, they would rather live like this than die. One part where we can see this is when the person who invites them to the games buys lottery tickets and bread to go to people in need and present the two options. Many chose the tickets and none of them won, in the end they did want them but eventually he ends up destroying them in their eyes. I won't do a review for the first season since that means rewatching it and the truth is I'm not that eager, and I wouldn't like to do a review based on what I remember because I could be wrong. Thank you for reading and God bless you. 68/100
