After a new season of Netflix’s hit series Squid Games, Northwest CTA students have a lot to say.
Some students at Northwest Career Technical Academy have watched the popular continuation of Squid Games and have had mixed feelings about the season.
Positively speaking, some students agree that Squid Games Season 2 has better film quality as well as improvement on the games from the previous season.
“I think Season 2 has better cinematography and just better production in general,” Rhys Huddleston, Freshman said.
However, it is thought that the new season doesn’t have much to offer story-wise. In fact, many students found the plot underwhelming and didn’t see the need for a second season.
“They didn’t even need Season 2 in the first place.” Sophia Gabrielle, Freshman says. “It's so stupid, I don't even know what they [the producers] were thinking.”
Many students say second season characters have added very little to the story plot.
“I don't think they add anything, they're just duplicates of characters from the last season” Jaden Ominga, Freshman states sullenly.
Overall, Squid Games Season 2 - while being incredibly underwhelming to viewers - is still on its way to be highly acclaimed, especially in addition to its previous season. Although many found it unnecessary with lackluster plot points, many lines are still memorable to this day.
“I’ve played these games before!” sophomore, Sofia Terrazas exclaims. “I say it every day!”
