Code Name Emperor

I found this film to be good, but a little boring getting near the middle. Luis tosar as juan did a great job and I enjoyed his acting and the two seperate lives he leads. I was also pleasantly surprised to see georgina amoros. I always enjoy things she is in and I feel she just brings a ray of sunshine to her roles. The plot could've been better, but there was enough of it to keep it interesting. Overall not bad. But could've been better Georgina amoros.

Netflix writes (on TV - not on computer, the texts differ) In this fast-paced spy thriller.... Hmm..., I could undo the seatbelt, however, because "fast-paced", now not so for me. Nevertheless, the cast does its job well, a very sympathetic Alexandra Masangkay, as a Filipino worker, Luis Tosar, I see since "The Minions of Midas" quite like and Arón Piper you know together with Georgina Amorós from "Élite".

The story is quite solid, quieter than expected but with several plot lines and leads the one or the other viewer sometimes on the slippery slope.

Basically, the agent Luis Tosar is in the foreground here with the moral question of how far he is willing to go. He manages to embody warm-heartedness and brutality in one person and until the end you don't know where the development with him is going.

Action should not be expected from this, but those who want to get involved in various machinations of the secret service and their consequences would have an alternative to the usual agent films with this film.

------------ Conclusion: Quite good - can be done.

This is a lot better than the small number of negative and low rated reviews. The central character ,played beautifully by Luis Tosar , is an agent for a shadowy spanish " government " agency running several investigations .Eventually he seems to become personally disillusioned at the toxicity of the tasks he is asked to do .I do hope this is fiction as if it has any basis as dramatised truth then Spain's Government is truly awful .The support actors/actresses are very good .The visual look is really attractive and it sucks you in to follow the outcomes . I encourage those who come across this film to watch .

Código Emperador succeeds in creating an interesting spy plot, but fails to generate tension, deviating a few times from the main story to deal with side missions that do not add to the plot.

Juan is an intelligence agent, a detective, as he puts it, but, at least to me, it is not clear if he is an official agent of Spanish Intelligence or if he is a private detective who ends up working for Intelligence. The fact is that Juan is an expert in espionage for a corrupt organization and ends up getting too involved in a case.

The premise is the classic story of the spy who lets his human side surface. His work begins to flog him morally, which leads him to accept risks he once avoided. And of course, this doesn't go unnoticed.

Some minor plots are only for character building. These are acceptable plots, but they deviate from the focus of the two main plots, stories A and B, that make up the film.

The outcome ends up disappointing for its brevity. Many holes remain open, instigating a possible sequel; but with the film's success, it looks like Code Emperador will be a one-time entry.

This is a really solid, well-made, intriguing and eminently watchable film. Unlike typical Hollywood 'action', with constant fight scenes, explosions and CGI to force the pace and to keep you "entertained", this movie brings you into a well-acted story plot and keeps you there. Highly recommended! Enjoy.
