The Night Agent - Movie Review

I have been seeing this series on Netflix for a long time now but I have been so skeptical about it. I guess I thought it wouldn't be as interesting as most of the series in the same genre that I have seen of recent. I wouldn't say this is my fault though because some series don't really have great plotlines and this makes it feel as if I wasted my time seeing them since I don't always enjoy them.

What I think gives the night agent edge over other series of its kind is its review of moral puzzle and the blurred lines between right and wrong. It xrayed the depths of human nature and this raised thought-provoking questions within me about loyalty, trust, and the consequences of one's actions.

I loved the fact that the night agent made me examine my beliefs and judgments. I loved the fact that it challenged me to empathize with people who are faced with impossible choices. Truth be told, I just don't decide to see movies for seeing sake, I see movies to learn and that's what the night agent helped me do. I learnt a lot from the movie and I challenged myself to better.

The Night Agent is no doubt an outstanding and interesting series that exemplifies the best qualities of the thriller genre. Do you know I was kept to the edge of my seat through out its entire run?
