This drama takes you on a journey back to wonderland and then crushes it all and fills it with, blood, gore and pretty much everything nasty... Ok not really however the english tittle Alice in Borderland is very much connected to Alice in wonderland, the adult version with lots and lots of gore, pain and playing with human lives and emotions to the max. Much like the original Alice who seems all fluffy and nice this drama has quite a bit of social criticism and seems to ask the viewers to either just enjoy the splatter and the gore or think past the surface as every single one of the games in this drama seam to have something to say. To be honest i am not sure I always get what they are trying to say but i am sue there is a lot more too it, which I hope to find out during the next season.

When it comes to twists and turns I will admit some of them where more predictable than others and while part one of a twist may have been very predictable, part two blew my mind more than once. and it is always nice to have your mind blown from the safe distance of ones couch.

I also liked the the way the characters are portrayed as complex humans, not always perfect, some times mysterious and with more or less interesting background stories that at least made me curious to find out more about them as every single one of the characters has more to them than meets the eye.

A lot of people have compared this drama with Squid Games and though i do see some similarities about human nature and the game theme, I do think these two are very different in the core, but sure it is some kind of mix of Alice in Wonderland goes Squid Game meets Lord of the flies type of deal with less colours and more unanswered questions.
