The action scenes do not disappoint!

I really enjoyed the action parts I think this would have been a whole lot better as a show instead of just a movie so that it could have gotten more of a deeper story but overall I really enjoyed the action! I would have loved to see the origins and story behind the characters. But it was Just a bit rushed but I think that has to do with the fact they only had a movie time limit to work on instead of multiple episodes. Ikuta did a wonderful job with his character and I like that they didn't have the cheesy "you betrayed me but I'll trust you again" trope. The cast did a wonderful job portraying their characters and the camera team did a great job with the setting/vibes of the movie. I think it was a nice watch especially for someone like me who doesn't mind blood or violence and likes action! They did wonderful and would have loved it to be longer but overall a solid layout for me. (This is just my opinion and your might be different)

Should have ended with Season 2 (THIS IS JUST MY OPINION DONT ATTACK me)

Spoilers for anyone who hasn’t watched:


Arisu and Usagi return to the real world, Man in the Hat in the Borderlands claims that something massive is about to happen in the real world, which will eventually lead many souls to go to Borderlands ( for anyone who doesn’t know it’s the world between life and death ) .. But Arisu decides he wants to live instead of dying. Even if he suffers due to what the man in the hat said. Usagi also chooses to live after making peace with her father. It also seemed at first that Arisu and Usagi will live happily ever after especially with their kid on the way. But as we know the man in the hat said is true. Because later Multiple earthquakes hit Japan ad Arisu watched the news. Then the show takes us to California, hinting that the story ahead may have players from all over the world. The last moments the camera also zooms in on the name badge of a waitress at the diner, revealing her name to be "Alice." Since Arisu's was used as "Alice" from Alice in Wonderland in the show's first three seasons, the final scene hints that the next "Alice" will likely be an American woman. - this is were I have my issues. I understand the man in the hat said what would happen in the living world. But it honestly felt like the creators just wanted room to make a spin off ( I don’t know if I’m explaining this correctly) - for example in squid game (sorry spoilers if you didn’t watch that) it ends with hints of an American spin off. Alice in borderlands also does the same. But I feel like they are simply just trying to milk out as much money as possible since it’s so popular.. I personally feel like season 2 was the best ending we could get with such a show.
We also see him talk to many characters as he ask what is their meaning of life. (Showing us which characters choose to live from my understanding ). The last character he speaks to ask him “what is it that gives your life meaning” that person is Chishiya (he’s in the last episode just like a few other characters, characters that helped him and also characters like Niragi are shown as he ask them what is their meaning to life) - this is an issue I know some people had that they simply felt like the characters from season 1 and season 2 weren’t really shown or seen like Chishiya which makes sense some people watched for him and other characters but I personally didn’t mind if it didn’t feel a bit underwhelming with the characters we were shown (I guess we associated the story and plot so much with these characters and they all fulfilled their purpose in the story but I can also understand that this season without much of them could have felt different as well (just my idea) but - I just feel like maybe my expectations were to high or maybe I just felt like season 2 ending was enough for such an amazing show. The ending made me feel a bit disappointed (DONT GET ME WRONG) I loved that each character got somewhat of an ending but at the same time it felt underwhelming especially with the potential they had and the way they could have ended it with just season 2. Now we are hinted that the games aren’t over (just like squid game) and that different countries will also be effected - just seems like they wanna make a spin off. BUT ENOUGH OF MY OPINION. I loved the cast as always their acting did not disappoint and some of the moments were really epic and cool. But I just feel like it’s being dragged out when it could have been different (BUT IM NOT A PROFESSIONAL IM JUST A WATCHER) - Alice in borderland will always have a spot in my heart (since season 1) but i can say you can enjoy this season 3 (I did somewhat) but I just feel like we could have had more potential but overall I give it an 8 because the story wasn’t terrible and acting was amazing as always. It had it flaws like many shows but it’s not terrible! Would I rewatch? Sorry no 😅 I guess for me it ended in season 2..

Action-packed filled with emotions

I absolutely love the story The action was so amazing and it had a good mix of emotions and storyline. The cinematographer did an amazing job I absolutely love the scenes in the part and the color plays and just how every angle was filmed. The actors were so wonderful they really brought out their characters and even made me hate some characters but that just basically means they acted and wonderful job to the character they played. I would recommend this to somebody who likes action and story involving emotions. Though I will like to give a warning some scenes can be triggering for some people like it's expected especially because the setting is a prison but there are scenes of s*xual a**ault and blood but I'm able to handle it it's just a warning for those of you who are not. Where I give this an 8 it was a wonderful watch and absolutely loved it I would not rewatch it again but it was good

Old soap opera type drama

Going into this do not have on expectations I didn't and it was a pretty decent watch. Would I watch this again? No. I'm someone who watches old dramas and tend to rewatch them again but I do not see myself be watching this. I feel like it was wasted potential and I wasted storyline. I also felt like the romance was unnecessary but it's probably cuz I'm not really into romance. I think the actors did pretty good and this really felt like an old school soap opera especially those of you have watched Korean soap operas this really fits that. It has a terrible CGI the overdramatic expressions and comedic moments that sometimes feel out of place. I feel like the main character should should have been given a superpower but I guess not all main characters have powers in these types of things but sometimes it felt like could really use it. Like it was dragged on a little too long and some other parts felt iffy. But I'm not a strict critic I'm not even a critic okay I'm just a drama watcher and please do not get offended by my opinion this is simply what I think. You should watch it on your own and have your own thoughts on it this is simply just what I think and I'm saying this the kindest way I can.
