This week on Episode 417 of the InSession Film Podcast, inspired by our review of Judas and the Black Messiah, we discussed our Top 3 undercover movies. For our poll this week, it was about undercover *cop* movies specifically, but for our Top 3 we went more broadly talking about all kinds of undercover scenarios in film. Beyond just police work, we’ve seen many other types of undercover work in film over the years that made this list all the more fun. There is surprisingly a good amount of variety here and we did our best to highlight that in the discussion. That said, here are our lists:
