The Squid Game is not as good as they say. The idea is good, this series shows the elite as perverts in quite realistic way. The problem is the lazy writing. It looks like the author had the right idea, but was unable to elaborate it. Apart of the depiction of cruel games with human lives, this series goes nowhere. I think those who are praising it, are people unable of critical thinking, liking it only for the bold idea.

it is not a masterpiece, but it is good. compelling premise, well defined character motivations, realistic depictions of human reactions to stressful situations, no stunning and brave grrrrrl power, and much more.

i would have removed the whole eyes wide shut part entirely, or left it for another season. the implication was far more compelling than the revelation. but otherwise, it's a great show.

but you're probably right. I just enjoy it because I'm cartoonishly stupid.
