Squid Games Final season It is here at last, revealing the fates of the show’s heroes and villains. That includes Gi-hun (Lee Jung-Jae), the shell of a man who returns to the deadly competition As a player 456, it intends to drop it from the inside.
When we first met Gi-hun back in the first season, he was a perpetual non-well, sponting his sick mother to provide his gambling habit and routinely disappointing his young daughter. While trying to win the 45.6 billion won, his mother died, and his daughter moved to America with Gi-Hun’s former wife and her new husband.
Season one ends with Gi-hun almost almost in a plane to reunite with his daughter, hoping to repair his fractured relationship but making a pivot instead, declaring his intention to avenge the people who put him through hell. This is what brings us to the re-entry of the second season into the world of pink guards, crawled twisted Kiddie games, and outrageous cruelty that carries right into the third season.
There is no time for Gi-hun to contact his long lost family in the third season (even if he wanted to) because he is in the game all the time. But he shares a nasty moment with player 222, a new mother Jun-hee (Jo Yu-ri), while she is guilty with guilt, blaming herself for the players who have died while protecting her and her baby.
Gi-hun reminds her that everyone made their own choices there and seriously tells her about their own daughter. He was a terrible dad, he admits, but seeing her grow gave him great joy. He understands that connection between parent and child, including how complicated the circumstances around it can be.
As Squid Game Denies its conclusion and 456 meets its terrible, self-sacrificial fate (the episode title, “People are …” Echoas their last words), is a Sidge of Redeemer in the “six months later” of the show, showing viewers as the surviving characters resulted after the games.
The last segment takes us to Los Angeles, where the former man (Lee Byung-hun) visits Gi-hun’s daughter. She is dismissed until the mysterious stranger at her door announces her that her father has passed away.
He gives her a box containing the squid of Gi-hun sweatshirt and a bank card allegedly loaded with the win of her father’s first season. That would be a great place to finish things, but instead we follow the former man while he is driven through the center of Los -English.
Stopped in traffic, he catches a woman’s sight in a suit playing rounds charge-The paper-knocking game that was used to pull out new players from the underground stations in Seoul-with a random guy, curling his face as he loses as well as the recruit of the squid.
The woman, by the way, is Cate Fucking Blanchett. She watches and exchanges a knowledgeable look with the former man. “Game on … Again“It’s the implicit message.
Is this Netflix’s heavy hand to remind fans that a US version of Squid Game Comes – something we already knew was in the works politely about David Fincher?
Does just a little blink confirm that the Calm game is actually a global phenomenon, setting up a shop wherever people are desperate enough to risk their life and moral dignity for cold hard money? America certainly suits the bill there.
Or … is it one last moment designed to leave the story open in case creator Hwang Dong-hyuk, who originally wanted Squid Game Being a one-and-made edition can be tempted to return again?
Whatever the intention, it is a strange entertainment of the intense emotional stairs that came before. Did we really need a big star to appear in the closing seconds of the finale, especially in a show that achieved such incredible success during the half -world away from Hollywood? The ongoing impression is “Omg Cate Blanchett?” Above everything else, and that just feels a little as it draws the carpet from the six hours of television, which came before.
