Bhai, Suno Zara...
Netflix ka blockbuster Squid Game ka Season 2 aa gaya hai, aur hum sabko lag raha tha ki yeh wala season bhi hume utna hi chillayega jitna Season 1 ne kiya tha. Par bhai, thoda disappointment hua. Story fresh hai, new characters hai, games bhi naye hai… lekin jo Season 1 ka woh shock value, woh thrill, yeh season mein utna feel nahi hua. Chalo, details mein batata hoon.
Kya Hai Story?
Season 2 bhi usi deadly island pe set hai jahan participants ko khatarnaak games khelne padte hai, aur jeetne wale ko 45.6 billion won milte hai. Iss baar, Player 456 (Lee Jung-jae) wapas aata hai, lekin uska motive alag hai – woh games ko khatam karna chahta hai. Saath hi, Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) bhi contestant ban ke khelta hai (twist toh hai!).
New players mein ek budhi maa aur uska beta, ek pregnant aurat, transgender character, aur ek villainous "Thanos" jaisa aadmi hai. Inki backstories thodi emotional hai, par utni deep nahi lagin.
Plus Points: Kuch Achha Bhi Hai
- Lee Jung-jae ka acting 👌: Uske expressions aur emotional scenes ne ek baar phasaya.
- Front Man ka entry: Player ban ke aana, ek maze ka confusion create karta hai. "Yaar, yeh kyu khel raha hai?" wali feeling aati hai.
- New Games: Ek game toh bahut hi brutal tha – dimag ka dahi ban gaya! Red Light, Green Light wala game bhi wapas aaya, par usme bhi thoda twist tha.
- Voting System: Naya add kiya gaya. Har game ke baad players ko vote karna padta hai ki game ruke ya chale. Isme drama badh jata hai.
Minus Points: Yahan Dikkat Hui
- Games Kam Hai 😒: Season 1 mein 6 games the, iss baar sirf 3! Do naye hai, par ek ko chhod ke baaki mein woh thrill nahi tha.
- Slow Hai Bhai: Kuch episodes aise bhi hai jahan kuchh khaas nahi hota. Bore hone lagoge.
- Ending toh bilkul hi abrupt hai: Matlab, kuch pata nahi chalta, bas setup kiya gaya hai Season 3 ke liye. Frustration hua!
- Detective Subplot (Wi Ha-joon wala): Boring laga. Uska island dhoondne ka track timepass nahi tha.
- Voting Waala Scene har baar repeat hota hai: Pehle toh interesting laga, baad mein laga – "Arre, yeh phir se?!"
Technical Talk
Direction aur cinematography sahi hai, lekin Season 1 jaisi dark vibe nahi hai. Background music thik-thak hai, par khaas kuch yaad nahi raha. Editing mein dheel hai – last episode ko tight karna chahiye tha. Telugu dubbing decent hai, kuch scenes mein sync nahi laga, par overall chal jayega.
Verdict: Dekhna Chahiye Kya?
Agar aapko Season 1 pasand aaya tha, toh yeh bhi ek baar dekh sakte ho. Par expectations kam rakhna. Naye twists hai, acting achhi hai, lekin overall package thoda half-hearted lagta hai. Timepass ke liye chalega, par agar aap naye ho Squid Game mein, toh pehle Season 1 dekh lo.
Final Rating: 2.75/5 (Timepass hai, par repeat value zero!)
Aur Ha...
Agar aapko lagta hai ki "45.6 billion won jeetne ke liye itna risk lena sahi hai?" toh comment karke batana! 😉
