This is the kind of cinema that we need. More such movies please.

1. Excellent review.
2. Agree with you 100%.
3. The more I think about this picture? The better I think it is.

Your commentary about the need for more films like this is spot-on.

I loved it, having gone wanting to see a bit of history! It didn't get anything from the stupid Oscars? Proof it was worthwhile!

I saw the movie and then read the book. Excellent. Both. See it, read it.

The twist at the end made sense to me - since the story favoured the need for a progressive Catholic Church. We're in an age where the role of women is being questioned and redefined. Your problem with the end of the movie should be aimed at the book's author, and not the filmmaker.

Slow Horses, the series is worth a watch.

This movie took itself too seriously but it was still good and I found it fun to watch. I liked the ending but I dont like how the dialogue was written because if you didnt read the book or dont know much about biology or gender identity, one might not understand exactly what the new pope is saying exactly. He was born intersex, he is NOT transgender. It seemed like a cosmic joke being played on the Cardinal, or thats how the audience is supposed to imagine he must be feeling after all the struggles he has had with his faith up until this point in the story. I dont think we are given enough to understand more about his journey though and it would have added more depth to his character and complexity to the story.

If I’m not mistaken this director is doing a new Bourne movie

Im a argue for Hollywood; theres many original movies today but audience is just not eating it up.

Some online gave the secret away. Why are people so rotten.
