Conclave

The film distorts reality from beginning to end, with a negative and sordid view of the Catholic Church institution; which has problems but has played a fantastic role for over 2000 years. Don't waste your time

A well thought out religious story. Since we don't know what the conclave looks like in real life, this movie gives up a visual understanding of how the Pope is chosen. Overall, 8.5/10. If there was a way, to use decimals in this website, I would.

Very interesting process and pretty similar to how the real conclave works. The problems add a nice twist to the story and how it affects the cardinals in the Sistine Chapel.

The characters are hard to follow especially since they are all in uniform. The plot really doesn't have that much going for it, unless you are a die-hard roman catholic, which I am not The big reveal at the end is far from shocking and while it is trying to poke a judgement stick at the standards of organized religion like the Catholic Church, it just doesn't do it for me.

Star studded and very well acted. Interesting historical content with a few surprise twists.

Conclave is a taut, elegantly crafted thriller that blends faith, politics, and suspense within the hallowed halls of the Vatican. Ralph Fiennes delivers a commanding performance in a film as thoughtful as it is gripping.

Loved every bit of it. Cinematography is breathetaking. Ralph Fiennes is a powerhouse of acting,Conclave is one of his best ever performance.

Enjoyed the general plot and the manoeuvring of different groups to be elected pope. However the twist at the end lost me as it introduced a separate plot which I believe if they wanted to bring in they should have explored more, especially the repercussions of it all. Not sure whether the book the film is based on does this better.

Slow start, but eventually holds your interest

Within 10 minutes I walked out. The way ring was forcefully taken out of Pope's hand, the way he was placed on the strecher with a forceful thud, the way people were shown smoking and all the forceful nonsense stuff shown. Okay there must have been bad pope too and a lot of politics in church too but in the movie you are showing how to treat a dead man with utmost rudeness. Is this called a movie? Just like Paris ceremony this movie in my eyes is a mockery. Nowadays everything is made a mockery. I thought it would be a nice movie of modern times but UTTER DISGRACE AGAIN. I am gonna go back to watching old movies now.
