Even the most exciting trips must necessarily reach the conclusion and, as we told you in our review of Squid Game 3, the ambitious television series created by Hwang Dong-Hyuk tried to Do varying narrative arches worthily close open during the three seasons that make up the show.
Put in order Squid Game seasons from the worst to the best It is certainly not a simple affar, given the complexity of each individual cycle of episodes: the writer has tried us, and in this article he offers you his personal and subjective ranking of the three seasons of Squid Game. And you, what do you think?
ATTENTION: We warn you that from this moment the spoilers will follow around all three seasons of Squid Game.
Squid Game 2
The expectations, very high after the first, shocking, season of Squid Game, were only partially satisfied. The second season resumes the thread where he had been interrupted, with the former competitor number 456 determined as never ever to end the perverse game at the orchestrated massacre Oh Il-Nam and carried out by a front man completely dropped in his role of perfidious supervisor of the games. The surprise effect vanished, the South-Corean series runs the risk of repeating itself (while inserting a compelling police sub-trama, which revolves around the character of Hwang Jun-Ho), proposing “compelling” but not as pregnant games such as those seen in the first cycle of episodes. At this stage we choose to open numerous narrative lines, presenting many (perhaps too many) new faces to the public; Interesting, yes, but certainly less memorable than the characters encountered in Squid Game 1. Squid Game 2 is basically configured, as a series of connection and its main function is to prepare the field for the definitive conclusion of the story.
Squid Game 3
The final season of the show is not exempt from defects, perhaps because too many were the elements to be managed: insert new games in the story, such as to keep the attention and curiosity of the public; manage the numerous narrative lines of the players; Make the investigative sub-trama functional, at the same time clarifying the role of the guard 011. Objectives not always centered, pains saying it, and mainly due to the tendency of the series to rapidly jump from one situation to another, avoiding to confer the right depth on the situations presented gradually. Although it is rather predictable in its developments (except for the closing scene of Squid Game 3, which no one expected), this third season, however, reaches its main objective: developing the character of Gi-Hun in a coherent way, making the final comparison with the front man memorable. The conclusion of the narrative arch of Gi-Hun was perhaps the only conceivable and leads us to try even more sympathy for a splendid and interpreted character and interpreted masterfully. Not only that: ultimately, the dynamics between competitors – some of whom are even willing to sacrifice an innocent child for mere economic profit – work and manage to carry out the bitter reflection on Korean society and on all humanity, attached from the first season of Squid Game.
Squid Game
Needless to deny it, the first season of Squid Game has been imposed – practically since its debut – as a real “case”, managing to catalyze the attention of the public all over the world through an idea as simple as it is effective. An intelligent and raw show, destined to remain imprinted for a long time in the history of television serial. The first season of the show has certainly enjoyed the surprise effect that distinguished her and fed on a left awareness by the public: “What will the next game be?”, We all asked ourselves, in the hope that the show would further raise the bar. Squid Game is a small jewel, both from a strictly technical point of view (direction, photography, acting of the cast) and from the exquisitely narrative one. A work that constantly questioned its audience, without limiting itself to entertaining it or “upset it”, giving it a gloomy and desolate snapshot of the company to which it refers.
