The Mole: Undercover in North Korea

I honestly can't get my head around anyone who thinks this is worthy of anything under 8. Folk saying about bad directorship or anything along those lines are thick as s##t! It's more an expose than a typical documentary but that's because it had so many hidden cameras. What were you expecting? Some beautiful cinematography?! This guy spent 10 years of his life on the line and people are giving it 1 star. Unbelievable. For anyone with half a brain I fully recommend this. Stunning.

I must say I enjoyed this documentary very much. Exciting to learn about North Korea and how it all works, going around the system and international laws. It's like "I can't believe" how easy that sounds. If I had some million Euro or Dollars, I could be part of a lot of shady stuff. It's just very interesting.

They got so much info, video and photos, I'm impressed. They really did a great job, all involved. I found the "Mr. James" guy especially exciting. He did the part like an award winning actor. He looked the part, had the right part and skillset. Impressive!

Also the retired chef, such a natural calm, kinda geeky and "boring" guy, living his life, just being undercover for so long. Doing all that. That dude is a lot tougher than he looks. Respect!

This is ABSOLUTELY worth a watch! Great from beginning to end 10/10

A inside look in Nort Korea's desperate attempts to make money on international drug and weapons deals. The lack of scrutiny on the part of the North Korean officials in verifying the identity of the mole and especially the actor makes it hard to believe this really happened. But it seem to be real events that we see unfolding judging on the endless amount of footage of the meetings and Brugger's history of documentary making. It's more thrumming than any Bond movie.

I'm not a critic. All I can say is, if you want to see an undercover spy operation with real footage, watch this!

The adrenalin you feel is real. Imagine the adrenalin and fear you'd have felt if you were the one doing it for 10 years straight.

Absolutely incredible bravery and commitment from Ulrich & Mr James - who is the most incredible person I've ever seen at work!

No spoilers - just watch it and you'll see for yourself. You couldn't make it up!

What an absolute amazing story! A must see. The documentary covers everything you already suspectet to be true. And now you Can see and hear it with your own eyes. You can't make this up...
