Based on the Chilean documentary “El Agente Topo”
Plot
Charles, a retiree, finds a new lease on life when he answers an ad for a private investigator and becomes a mole in an undercover investigation at a retirement home.
Remake of El agente topo (2020)
Loved it!
I was expecting a cliché comedy about someone going undercover, his crazy antics, etc
Instead, we get a series about a man who not only helped others, but also helped himself heal from the loss of his wife.
This great series wasn’t full of corny laughs and cheesy one-liners, I found myself really emotional during some parts because of the way the topics were handled, like the resident having memory problems
However, it wasn’t all that serious to the point of making you feel depressed or bored while going through the episodes, it made the series worth watching because you wanted to see how it unfolded – Who stole etc.
The casting for the acting was excellent, the cinematography and locations are well done
I really hope they make another season and bring a great mix of laughter, emotions, storyline, locations and casting like they did on Charles’ next detective adventures like they did on this one.
