I am not a Catholic... I am not even a Christian. That said, I still found this film to be deeply offensive. Conclave goes out of its way to disrespect the beliefs and traditions almost 1.4 billion people, for no other reason than it is the current popular thing to do. The film (as well as the book, from what I can determine) approach Catholicism with a pompous, mean-spirited "its not MY beliefs, so f*ck 'em" attitude that I myself find disgusting. I am thankful that I had the foresight not lay down my hard earned money to watch this tripe in the theater.

Anyone who is rating this film a 3, let alone a 5 is lying to you, and is most likely a paid Sony stooge. This movie is horrendous. Awful. Terrible. The broken, meandering storyline is absolutely nonsensical. It's very poorly written, and the acting is even worse. A Morbius level waste of your time and money.

A slow, boring, dun colored abomination. Denis Villeneuve managed to completely butcher the story from the novels... The 80s version is superior by far. Shoot, the freaking SyFy channel actually managed to made a far superior film on 1/100 of the budget. Why this trash was nominated for 10 Oscars is beyond me.

Such an amazing film. Hollywood has forgotten how to make a GOOD movie... Someone should watch this one and take notes.

This film has it all... Nonsensical writing, plot holes, contradictory plot elements and a lame, boring story. What a complete waste of my limited time upon this earth.

Most definitely did NOT "live up to the hype". Aside from a few chuckles (that fell waaaay farther apart then they should have) this film was terribly unfunny. The story was meandering (almost like they were making it up as they went along), and it didn't have the same "feel" as the first two films. Worst of all it was BORING (my kid fell asleep, and I just sat through the last third wishing the damn thing would end already). I was really looking forward to this one... What a massive disappointment.

It was an alright movie, nothing spectacular. Worse than Fury Road, much worse than any of the three originals. The plotline could stand quite a bit of tightening and the ending felt rushed, like they were just trying to wrap it up as quickly as possible. I didn't particularly care for the chapter format either.

Cool premise, could have stood a little more development though.

The first three seasons were excellent, but the show really started to jump the shark in season four. Season five recycles a lot of plot points from the original film (a sure sign of writer fatigue). While we're on the subject of plot and writing in season 5, what wasn't stolen from a vastly superior production is so charged with current popular political hot takes that it's actually painful to watch.

The best show on TV, hands down. I like the cast, I love the writing... I also love that its harder sci fi than I have ever seen on TV... most of the technology that it shows (the advanced alien civilization stuff aside) is grounded in actual science, that helps believability/immersion a great deal. Highly, highly HIGHLY recommended.
