A remake of El agente topo (2020)
Narrative
Charles, a retired man, gets a new lease of life when he answers an ad for a private investigator and becomes a mole in an undercover investigation at a nursing home. “El Agente Topo” based on a Chilean documentary.
I really liked it!
What I expected was a comedy full of clichés about someone going undercover, his crazy antics and so on. Instead, we got a series about a man who not only helped others, but also helped himself heal from the loss of his wife.
worthy, because he wanted to see how it was done—Who stole, &c
This great series wasn’t full of cheeky laughs stubborn lines, in some parts I felt emotional because of the way the themes were handled – Like a resident with memory problems. While it wasn’t anything serious that made you feel overwhelmed or bored watching the episodes, it kept the series going.
The acting was great, the cinematography and cinematography; the locations are nicely done
I really hope they do another season & a great mix of laughs, emotion, script, location and cast, as they did in Charles’ next detective-style adventures, as they did in this one.
