Maybe the bubble never explodes and we faint as spectators before the avalanche of weekly novelties whose rhythm is impossible to follow.Netflix takes the palm when offering exorbitant amounts for the intake of large audiences.But we must not remove merits from the rise of the platforms.Bill apart, they have their advantages, such as the possibility of accessing unreal titles in 'streaming', from distant cinematographies to which the medium public barely took into account and did not pay attention.The globalization of consumption has allowed a South Korean series, 'The game of squid', becomes a worldwide phenomenon and is tasted by a lot of people, surprised at the originality of a bet with oriental seal that drinks from a lot of fountainsat the time of inspired.
The dubbing, not always care in this type of material, has helped the fever for 'the squid game' expand via Netflix, as reflected in its list of its main ten in the week of its launch.From the outset, the series plays with the advantage of hooking directly to popular survival stories such as' Hunger Games', or the mythical cult tape 'Battle Royale', inevitable reference when talking about the phenomenon 'Fornite'In the field of video games.
Human miseries flourish, as they did in the Oscar -winning 'parasites', pointing out the prevailing classism
Only one player can be left and in the last film cited, the great Takeshi Kitano, filmmaker and actor who also served as a presenter in a television contest that delighted a generation thanks to the voices that related, with a politically politically humorincorrect today, what happened: 'Yellow humor'.To these references we can add 'cube', 'saw', the Spanish 'intact' - to claim - and so many others, including the current fashion for the exhaust rooms.If we beat these suggestive mentions, and sleeves like 'Gantz', dressing the result with the passion for the game and bets that intoxicates Asian citizens, we serve the game of the squid 'in tray, whose first chapter goes directly to emotions, not hiding some effective truculence that contrasts with its colorist aesthetics.

In this series, a good number of practically evicted people, in bankrupt.600 million wones, around 330 million euros.There can only be a winner, the rest will lose his life in the attempt.The tests are simply traditional children.
Sympathize with the main characters of the choral cast is dangerous, nobody is safe from burning.The dramatic scenes, with the histrionic touch of Korean fiction, are not lacking in a series serialized in nine deliveries that find their best asset in the contrast between background and form, the child aesthetics of mortal activities against the sadism of the same.Violence is explicit, without contemplation, except in specific moments where the narrative demands another option.
Hwang Dong-Hyuk, responsible for the recommended 'The Fortress', writes and directs is dystopia with visos of becoming a reality, if he has not already done so, in a society that increasingly embraces gamification.Everything is a game, through the mobile or a computer, from renewing the driving license to link skillfully with the touch screen.
The rise of platforms allows you to access distant cinematographic titles to which the average public before ignoring
Social complaint
'The squid game' squeeze its references to create a new dish that, deep down, knows what we imagine, with some unexpected seasoning.It is the secret of the success of a drama with few scenes of action contained that gives a fly to the intrigue in its second chapter, taking a run for what comes after.
An emotional hell, where the human condition is dissected and puts our idea of survival against the ropes.What are we willing to do the skin or make ourselves rich?Human miseries flourish, as they did in 'parasites', pointing out the prevailing classism.Social cinema is present in an absorbent story that also cares about migration, giving prominence to a role of Pakistani origin, an unusual detail in that wave of productions.
Although predictable in some turns, and a certain naive tone that comes well with the theme, 'the squid game' navigates towards a devastating end, little grateful, but inevitable.Shame, redemption, the concept of success, emotional traumas, envy and desires are reflected with a well -developed approach whose first season closes perfectly, leaves no important front open, but leaves some fringes that can allow existenceof a possible continuation.Only in South Korea or in other countries on the planet?Let's throw the dice.
