Lorena Excellent movie humankind, funny drama Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/22/21 Full Review Audience Member Creepy & voyeuristic views on the elderly in their declining years shame on these filmmakers for taking advantage of these frail, fragile people. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/14/24 Full Review isla s I liked the plot of this documentary film but at the end, I wasn't quite sure what conclusions had been reached. I thought it was nice to see how the titular mole had managed to befriend different people in the home, seeing how he got on with others and sometimes how staff behaved. It's an interesting idea and it made me think of Richard Osman's debut novel 'The Thursday Murder Club', which is about a group of care home residents that investigate crimes (this documentary doesn't focus on a murder though, it must be said). I suppose its true that society maybe hasn't made many films, or otherwise concentrated on, care home residents - what they experience and so on, in the past. Certainly not as much as the lives of younger people and so its nice to see something a bit different, I guess. I enjoyed watching this, I just wish that I felt it was more clear what had happened at the end (unless I just wasn't paying enough attention?). I would recommend this to others, yes. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Breached credibility by skeptical form under supposable "documentary" by its coherent narrative functioned by documenting tactics leaves a question mark on its identity of genre association and deliverance, but it doesn't hinder its humane subject matter of invisibly built impact unveiling the actually objective amidst the secret mission between friendship and reflected family through humor and captivating heart towards a solid conclusion polished in a timely matter. (B+) Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review greg m Absolutely loved it. Maybe a bit staged at times. But laughed hard at times, and felt challenged by the end of it. Great Documentary. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review johann m 🇨🇱 El documental chileno nominado a los Oscars de 2021 en el que un detective privado contrata a Don Sergio de 83 años para que viva tres meses como agente encubierto en un hogar para adultos mayores, debido a denuncias de maltrato. Ya infiltrado, le cuesta asumir su rol de topo y se transforma en uno más al interior de la casa de reposo. Un documental inusual pero enternecedor y compasivo que nos recuerda la terrible soledad que deben soportar los adultos mayores cuando sus familiares se olvidan de ellos tan pronto son internados. Llena de momentos divertidos y momentos algo tristes, se puede definir con una palabra: humana. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
