I preferred Alice in Borderland more than squid game.

I know the sequel movie is disliked by many, but I actually like it. It isn't as good as the first one, but I still like it.

I think its due to ending on a cliffhanger. Originally meant to be a single season, the creator split it up. I'm still waffling, because IMO I want to know what happened, and given it was meant as one it should be.

But also, I can understand not having a load of condensing to fit the Netflix requested number of episodes.

I meant the Battle Royale movie, sorry I should have made that clear
