It was fairly interesting. If anything, it was interesting to know how a pope is chosen, if that is factual. I tried not to fall asleep, but in my defense, I did have a good workout that day and it was a little late when we started watching it. But, I was not expecting the ending. One thing I keep thinking about is, is everyone lying? How many times do you hear that Cardinals say the Pope told them to do it?
This scores very high. Really good.
Everything was great and kept me interested in something very uninteresting but the ending was lazy and laughable.
Incredible cast. I didn’t think the premise of the movie sounded interesting, but I was wrong. The acting was incredible and I was spellbound. The conclusion of the movie was a complete surprise. I felt transformed and I may buy this movie in order to watch it again. There are so many subtle facial expressions. I was captivated.
Can't say enough good about this movie. It's excellent.
Terrible movie. They placed effort into the cast and scenery just to mock christianity. 20 years ago people would be walking out and demanding their money back. This was an insult.
Acting was great . Refreshing to see a suspenseful movie without guns and visible violence.
Comical ending.
Excellent movie for many reasons: it comes close to protraying how the Conclave actually works in real life; it presents the human side of the cardinals who are ,afterall ,only men imbued with human foibles and passions; and it presents situations that might lead some viewers to question what we would do faced with similar situations with regard to faith, and how that faith is influenced by our own ambitions. The acting, the pace of story telling and the drama are superb. No doubt this film will be among those nominated for an Academy Award.
I could not imagine how a Conclave could ever make a 2 hr. movie…I was wrong… 2 hrs was like 45 minutes. Riveting from the 1st minute to the last second. Amazing character development. Superb acting. One o the best movies I have seen in 10 + years
Not knowing what I was in for, I hoped to watch a movie about something really important, especially now, in the state of our current world. This movie is not it. It is trying to influence more poison...
Ralph Fiennes at his most promising

Thoroughly enjoyed this one… Glad that I went with a friend as it gave me someone to discuss it with. Really fine acting.
Excellent acting, awesome cinematography, beautiful sets, great script.
I wasn't bored at all.
You missed the whole message about God's love for all mankind not hate. Welcome to the real world!
Acting good story different very different. Found it to be interesting more than entertainment.
This movie kept my attention from start to finish. Storyline is interesting, and appealing. Loved the ending!
It was suspenseful. I had no idea what would happen. The biggest change happened to me at the end of the movie.
Acting and writing were excellent! Yes, it had some slower moving moments. It also held surprises, and it held many questions we’re faced with today no matter what we believe!
They sure ruined a potentially good movie with an ending that was so stupid that it turned a serious movie into a comedy.
The devil is in the details. Amazing!
Great actors dull script. If this wins any awards then Hollywood is corrupt because I thought this movie was a complete dud, too long and utterly contrived ending. They advertise this as a Thriller? I almost fell asleep multiple times!! Utter garbage…
Behind the scenes at the election of a new Pope. An acting showcase - really good performances. Twisty, suspenseful story. Nice directing. Very serious.
Avoid this one. It’s super boring.
I found it boring. The ending contrived and gratuitously woke. Don’t believe the good reviews, this is a boring story, zero suspense, I left feeling a sense of apathy, regret.
Excellent movie!
profound performances, great cinematography
This really happened! Go read about it!
Fictional but really happened. You will be surprised. Well done.
Very interesting. Go see it and decide for yourself.
Great cast, good acting. Ending is a bit surprising and Woke.
Not at all engaging. To much boring dialogue that lacked substance. The ending was a slap in the face to Catholics. And by extension Christians. Ever since the Olympics gone woke, this is no surprise for Hollywood … It’s all about feelings at the end, rather than anything morally correct, holy or righteous… Even if you consider yourself woke, you’d probably find this movie dull and boring. You might get a slight chuckle at the end though, if you despise people of faith…
Intelligent, thought-provoking, acting tour de force. Great movie-making all around. Keeps you watching regardless of religious persuasion.
No Catholic should support this trash, it's designed in every possible way to be as anti-Catholic as possible. Starve woke outfits, don't give them your money.
Great movie and captivating. Taught me a little about the process and the thought provoking end makes it worth it all.
I've seen some reviews by members of the Catholic Church that this movie is offensive. Of course each viewer will see it from a different perspective. For me , the message here is,that all people no matter what denomination should be respected and allowed to practice their faith without fear or intimidation. I am a Catholic and I believe the God I pray to everyday would want me to follow that rule. God created us all in his own likeness. NO ONE is excluded.
Ralph Fiennes at the top of his game. John Lithgow, Stanley Tucci and Isabella Rosellini all excellent. Contrast Ralph Fiennes in this masterpiece and his comedic role in "The Grand Budapest Hotel" and, of course "The English Patient" tells you all you need to know about the brilliance and range this man possesses. An Oscar is definitely warranted. I was afraid it would be another stodgy, dogmatic religious (Catholic) mind numbing POS. I was wrong. A tightly woven thriller about the behind the scenes wheeling and dealings of the Vatican trying to find a suitable replacement for the recently deceased pope. Excellent for anyone...not just the Catholics or religious followers..
At face value the plot is thin and uninteresting: the selection of a Pope. Don't let that deter you from seeing a brilliant film. The script, acting and soundtrack are superb. I expect Conclave will garner numerous Oscar nominations.
