Squid Game Season 3

It Was a Bumpy Road.

A shame, that’s what this season has all amounted to, but it was never doomed to fail, especially after the fantastic second season.

Season 3 had a strong start in my opinion, in fact, it wasn’t until mid-episode 5 that it started to dwindle a little, and I’m talking narrative.

The character development of the characters took some questionable turns, it was all over the place that it made my faith this this adaptation falter, but I was sure it will come around eventually. Unfortunately, it was too late by then.

I have no issues with how the show ended, but I do have several problems with what it took to get there.

All thoughts while watching this!

This show shows realism of capitalism that exists whether if we to want believe or not !

I think this shows that humanity exists that they arranged that fu*king game on an island and when they knew they r about to caught they flew like coward because they knew if this come in public they will get seriously punished or death honestly I say was watching for that to vip get caught seriously punished and this fu*king game ends .... That's they only thing I hating about this show so much !
Disclaimer:Spoiler ahead and don't read full because very long😅
I literally like that thonas scene it truly reflected of trying some unknown drugs for even 1 one time to get confidence to play or perform some task which leads to withdrawl symptoms that
I should know that I would feel or think which I don't wanna think
You know while watching siung fall for baby what I remember the real incident of a death baby side shore of sea I know many of remember that incident that why understand why director keep the baby to tell and awake the audience of whole world that WE ARE HUMAN..... Because everyone knows that war happening in any part of world is indirectly or directly related to these some absurd rich or powerful people whether they want to make more money by selling weapons to them which didn't even think twice before killing someone
Using democracy to kill a baby
Mother Nature
hodie mihi cras tibi
jinja !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i was nearly liking the but vips didnt get even caught or they didnt even get some sense they should stop having this game !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i literally watching this show because i wanted to get those shibal vips to get caught which r playing with using people feeling via using human survival tactics who are in problems for their fu*king entertaiment !!!!!!
This is the reason I like about kindustry they don't make their content for not only entertainment or money purposes but to convey some strong messages which needs guts and every industry in this world have that I know from my experience
Oh f*ck this is very negative side of squid game giving big roles to those people who are trash in real world it was literally not necessary I think kindustry is shows leniency to male actors who doesn't even not only have serious allegations but gone for probations we literally saw recent case Kim saeron how industry cancelled her from industry!
Yesterday I was writing appreciation post for squid game and wrote it as greatest show of all coming to end some people wrote it's not an goat after reading that I was also thinking that it might seems true I thinking I exgrateded my post but when I saw gihun falling for the baby message he conveyed to audience that we are humans not horses that's when I realised that I was correct that show as that guts to show world that brutal character of society on-screen.
We are human it's okay if we feel stress burnout anxious etc
We r the one also feels happy confident
Because we are human it absolutely fine
But it get very serious when u get extreme of that whether it is happiness or saddeness both will kill u remember!

Incredibly Frustrating

This isn't going to be a review in the normal sense but instead something for you to read as you watch or read after you've watched it. lol It's just notes i took while watching. Next time I'll have to timestamp or at least put what episode I'm on.

So I'm already confused. I didn't feel like watching the entirety of season 2 all over again and I figured the recap would be enough, but why is 456 SO mad at 388? It says online he failed to get him ammunition because he got too scared and had a panic attack. He's acting like this man betrayed him intentionally. Or has he just snapped?

And if 333 betrays her ISTG.

I'm so upset that 120 died. She went back to save them and that horrible little boy killed her!! I hope he dies. Him and his little psychopath friend.

I'm sorry but leaving the room and saying it's too dangerous to stay in the room with the baby when they've been in there for ages and there' s like two minutes left is the is the dumbest decision ever. I hope it doesn't backfire.

Omg the old lady's grown son has always been such a loser. The audacity. I wish he had died ages ago. She is too kind with him. Probably why he is the way he is. OMG she killed him bc he was gonna kill the one girl!?!? Wowwwww.

This is the problem with Netflix making Korean dramas. Not only do they make them super slutty, which is not what I watch kdramas for, the English actors are always horrendous. And I noticed the VIPs are all White men. Real shocker there. Surprised to see one Asian female as a part of the VIPs this time.

Btw... what is with this insane AI looking baby?? lol

NOOOOO NOT THE DOG!!!!

Why tf isn't 456 just showing that guy off the ledge? To stop him from pushing everyone else off?

Omg he's going to push him isn't he!? 456 should've shoved his a**.

I know she's going through a lot but it's selfish to kill yourself and leave the burden of your baby on someone else. Especially after MULTIPLE people died protecting you. Also, how's he going to feed YOUR baby!?

This is frustrating. He just wouldn't listen that captain was a bad guy.

No shot they're letting these two walk out. The boat is going to explode when she starts it or something right?'

Wow, baby daddy guy just gets worse and worse.

Didn't they announce that players couldn't harm each other anymore? So is this offer a trap? Also, I'm gonna be mad if 456 doesn't take it. All of those men were happy to kill a baby to win. Including the baby's father. They should die.

I can't believe he didn't do it. They were laughing and thrilled to take the baby out the next day.

I know I've said this so many times but "baby daddy" really is a horrendous POS. And how stupid are these six guys who have repeatedly backstabbed each other yet they're happy to trust one another.

I don't believe 333 at all. He says she didn't trust him and I don't either. OMG WHY DID HE DO THAT!? They already had people out! Why not save the old dirtbag for the last round!?!?!

Why would you offer to let 333 take you out and escape with the baby when he's shown nothing but a desire to kill that baby?

If 456 and the baby aren't the two who wind up leaving, and instead its this little p*ss ant "father" I'm going to lose it.

OMG! The button wasn't pressed!? GTFOH. He's going to kill himself and who's gonna take the baby!? WAIT - 011 maybe!?

Sorry but this is bogus. He's going to die to save her kid? He has his own kid out in the world. Sorry but she hooked up with a loser, then joined this game, multiple people died protecting her and the baby, then she kills herself and pawns her kid off on a stranger knowing damn well the only way for said stranger to "keep her baby alive" is to kill himself. Like wtf.

Also I know it's minor but put the f*cking baby away from the edge.

And you're trusting them to actually go get the baby and care for it!? Like it doesn't make any f*cking sense.

I love that she went back to see him thriving in his life but I hate the pretending you don't know him crap.

perdeu o impacto, sobrou o tédio

??????????????
finalizei achando a mesma coisa de quando renovaram para mais temporadas: desnecessário. nem tudo precisa de continuação!! pode ser difícil, mas às vezes, as pessoas precisam lidar com um final aberto e incerto. a primeira temporada é boa e deveria ter ficado por isso mesmo, mas a fama pediu mais.

as personagens femininas carregaram esta temporada nas costas, mas isso não cobre o restante: personagens desinteressantes, insuportáveis e esquecíveis, enredo cansativo, coisas sem sentido, vips superficiais — assim como outras coisas presentes no k-drama — e o protagonista mais tedioso do universo. destaco aqui principalmente o meu descontentamento com o final das personagens femininas. enfim, pelo menos acabou!

Squid Game S3 ou l’art de frustrer avec panache...

Bon… j’ai terminé cette fameuse saison 3… et j’en suis ressortie avec un sentiment ultra mitigé 😑. J’étais happée, puis frustrée, puis paumée. J’ai mis 6⭐️ parce qu’il y a des choses que j’ai vraiment apprécié, mais cette fin… je l’ai encore en travers de la gorge 😤

Faut pas mentir, y’a une montée en tension bien gérée 👌🏻👍🏻 L’univers est toujours aussi glauque et prenant, y’a du sang, du doute, des retournements comme je les aime. Les acteurs sont ultra solides, les visuels claquent, et on sent que la prod a mis les moyens. J’ai pas boudé mon plaisir devant certains épisodes 😶‍🌫️🔥

Mais plus on avance, plus je me suis sentie baladée… et pas dans le bon sens 🙃. J'ai l’impression qu’on te balance des twists juste pour te choquer, mais sans vraiment creuser derrière 🤷🏼‍♀️... Les motivations du joueur 001 ? Elles sont toujours floues. Son plan global ? Je pige pas vraiment... Sa vision ? Ben non plus... 😵‍💫

Et puis ce dernier épisode... je sais même pas quoi dire 😵. Gi-hun qui disparaît comme ça, pour sauver un bébé ?!? J’ai compris le symbole, hein. Le cycle, l’innocence, la rédemption… mais ça manque de liant, de cœur. Et le pire pour moi... C’est que j'ai se sentiment que rien n’est résolu. La série finit comme si elle ne devait rien à personne 😤

J’ai passé 3 saisons à attendre une vraie confrontation, un éclaircissement, une justice... J’espérais un truc intense, viscéral, qui me laisserai bouche bée. Au lieu de ça, j’ai juste cligné des yeux en mode “c’est fini ? genre vraiment ?” 😑

Et puis franchement… le cameo de Cate Blanchett ?!? J’aime bien Cate hein 😅 mais c’est quoi ce teaser chelou pour un spin-off américain... À la limite, fallait garder ça pour une scène post-générique, mais pas comme ultime note de fin d’un show qui méritait un feu d’artifice émotionnel 🔥 et pas un "hein quoi ?"...

Malgré tout ça… j’ai pas pu mettre moins que 6⭐️. Parce que la tension était quand même là, parce que les idées sont là aussi, et parce que j’ai quand même vibré à certains moments 👌🏻. Mais je peux pas dire que je suis satisfaite non plus... Et ça me rend encore plus dingue, parce que cette série avait tellement de potentiel pour conclure avec panache 🥲

Bref... 6⭐️ parce que j’ai pas pu décrocher… mais j’ai pas été satisfaite comme je l’espérais... 😩💥🫰🏻

um final triste e humano, que poderia ter sido mais bem executado

honestamente eu gostei dessa temporada. dentre todas as outras, essa foi mais sombria. os personagens possuem histórias bem mais interessantes que os da primeira temporada. os jogos foram legais de assistir, teve emoção no ponto certo e foi interessante assistir à diferença dos personagens que lutavam para não abandonar a sua humanidade e compaixão pelo próximo, mesmo sendo as minorias lá.

o que deixou a desejar não foi todos terem morrido ou terem se sacrificado por uma criança que não é deles, como algumas pessoas apontam. para mim, o grande problema é que tudo aconteceu rápido demais. sinto que poderíamos ter mais 2 episódios para concluir algumas partes da história que ficaram no escuro. ao mesmo tempo, tiveram coisas que demoraram muito para acontecer e, infelizmente, personagens que eram bons acabaram se tornando inúteis. um grande exemplo disso é o policial junho, que passou anos dedicando o tempo dele para ir atrás do irmão, para no final não conseguir falar com ele e sair de lá sem saber de muita coisa. os vips na primeira temporada foram interessantes, mas nessa terceira temporada era uma tortura assistir às cenas deles: diálogos péssimos e totalmente mal feitos.

o que eu passei de raiva com o gihun na segunda temporada graças a Deus foi perdoado nessa. o homem passou por boas merdas, mas tentou ao máximo cumprir todas as promessas que ele fez com os seus amigos.

por outro lado, as personagens femininas carregaram a história nas costas. eu ficava ansiosa para assistir às cenas da junhee, hyeonju, noeul e geumja. foram as únicas mortes que eu realmente fiquei triste. foi lindo como elas se ajudaram até o final e se sacrificaram por uma criança totalmente inocente e pura.

outro personagem que me surpreendeu foi o myunggi. ok, na segunda temporada vimos que ele não é flor que se cheire, mas dava para perceber que ele realmente queria tirar a junhee de lá, mas não queria abrir mão do dinheiro também. quando ela morreu, ele simplesmente se tornou uma das pessoas mais cruéis dessa temporada. ele ia matar a própria filha, recém-nascida, sem ao menos se importar que a mãe e outras pessoas se sacrificaram por ela.

queria terminar dando parabéns para esse elenco, pois as atuações são uma das únicas coisas que não podemos reclamar.

foi legal ter acompanhado round 6/squid game. apesar de muitas decepções, valeu a pena assistir.

Esperava mais

Até que enfim finalizou.

Acabou ficando até meio maçante, ao mesmo tempo que ficou mais violenta e mostrou como o ser humano poder ser podre cada vez mais, como podemos nos surpreender com nossa própria raça.

Não odiei nem amei, estou aí num meio termo, sentindo falta de algo, sensação de perguntas sem respostas. As minhas expectativas estavam altas.

Achei super que o jogo seria destruído pelo policial com toda sua investigação e o jogador 456 com sua ânsia por vingança (mas aí já foi expectativa minha né?) mas se era pra terminar com esse ar de vida real com o mal prevalecendo, que tivesse parado na primeira temporada mesmo.

Ainda de cena final temos o jogo virando pro lado americano? Agora vem aí uma continuação americana? Que cocô, é melhor parar.

Se não fosse pela qualidade da primeira temporada, acho que eu nem teria me dado ao trabalho de ver as duas últimas temporadas, se transformou em mais uma sequência vazia feita apenas por uma questão de lucro.
