    Default is it just me but squid game over hyped?

    Just done with Squid game.... I dont understand the super hype around it.... Its been seen before and done better than squid game IMO.
    Its VERY predictible, *Spoiler alert* But the old man I already knew almost right away was... well the man. and the game keeper, was well the brother... I do admit there was a few episodes, that i really liked - But mostly mediocre charactre building, mediocre dialog and in general not that interessting.

    The acting was in a few of them really good, and some was at best B actors.

    But can someone enlighted me? I must admit I have been a movie critic for many years and maybe im just getting old... but something is lost in translation for me... cos I dont understand why so many find is so good...

    But I do like to hear why people like it so much...

    Kindest regards :-)

    No it wasn't overhyped. It's a cool show, but the buzz is about how immensely popular it was worldwide.

    It is overhyped and not really interested in watching the show.

    It's not a reality show.
