Iosi, el espía arrepentido

A good story that isn't lost with switching time lines, it actually keeps coherency in the viewers mind with a very good makeup department on characters in latter year scenes. Depth of plot not obliterated with artistic license towards having too much gratuitous violence... seems like a " based on a true story", stayed true to actual events. Not for the subtitled challenged. It's also nice to see actors from different countries, and cultures.

Yosi is a sympathetic character despite being naive about the context of his world which is his undoing. The flashbacks and forward scenes around a pivotal event make it difficult to follow the storyline of a secret surveillance operation of the Jewish community in Buenos Aires in Argentina.

Well developed characters and suspense keep you involved despite the fractured timeline. Best to read about the historical facts before watching the film.

It's a good premise to start a series. Personally I thought it might be more of a historical reference but the series is more fictional than a docudrama.

The time jump edits are an interesting way to back up character plots but there are too many and the plots remain unanswered and confusing. Even for some (like myself) that follow middle eastern politics and Israel's history in the region.

Yosi is a likable character. The actors do a good job with acting. The issue is the script itself. Deeper political research and character analysis were needed to help viewer understand choices made.

I just watched season 1. Not planning on watching season 2.

I love spy thrillers and 'Yosi The Regretful Spy' is up there as a favourite! It's one of those annoying series that draw the viewer in and then keep them hooked with the 'cliff hanger' after an hour or less of each episode! Let's be clear, it's not '24' or 'Lost' but it is well acted, scripted and shot.

Yosi is the main protagonist who works undercover for the Argentine government. The main story centres around the 1992 bombing of the Israelis Embassy and how Yosi integrates himself deep into the Jewish Community. Series 2 develops what happens after the bombing and the serious consequences he faces from some of his choices.

I found it a bit difficult to keep up with the chopping of time lines but it's worth watching despite this. I highly recommend it.

It does jump through time back and forth but I believe it was all tied together and you know it will make sense as you get more involved. Great group of actors that appear to work well together. Most people have no idea this happened in history let alone the facts behind it. This series had the ability to draw you in and as it opens up, you realize you can't wait to see how it ends but not wanting it to end. I appreciate the historical value in a time and place I'm not familiar with. I was also fascinated with the character development (Yosi) into a jew and part of the community. This was an eye opener for me. Thank you & God Bless.
