I wasn't expecting much from this, having read and watched a lot about North Korea. I expected it to be pretty much a fluff piece. However, I was very surprised. Michael was very polite, but also managed to get across how contrived and manipulated everything was. He did a masterful job, conveying a lot through what he didn't say. Through careful questioning and observations, it was up to the viewer to read between the lines, even though at other times he was less subtle. I'd love to know what the people would say to him if they knew they could have complete anonymity.
Definitely worth watching if you are fascinated with this country. Not entirely unique, but an entertaining perspective.
