This is film making at its absolute best.I found Conclave,thrilling, compelling,intriguing and a complete joy to watch. The performances by all the actors,is nothing short of superb. I could have watched another two hours of it.

I was so looking forward to this movie this afternoon,and desperately wanted to love it.. But sadly l came out feeling totally underwhelmed. Sure some of the effects were quite spectacular,and we know that they could flood,and have ship battles in the Coliseum,but sharks,😯come along now. And what were the vicious attack monkeys suppose to be exactly,dreadful scene,and should have been left on the cutting room floor. I also thought it was terribly miss casted,l felt Paul Mascal was so unconvincing in the roll he played. I did l enjoy parts of the original soundtrack from the first movie being played throughout it,and the odd glimpse of Russel.Just to remind us of how great the original film actually was.

Just got home from seeing it this afternoon.To be honest l didn’t quite know what to expect.l couldn’t have been more pleasantly surprised.l absolutely loved it.Brilliant performances,and very easy to follow. Good luck America in early November is all l can add really😯
