Atom User Reviews
The Catholic Church may, or may not, be a lot of things. One thing it will never be is contrary to the design, and creation, of an Almighty God. SPOILER: The traditional conservative Cardinal is made out to be the villain, while the woke, trans or intersex person is presented as the future that we should enthusiastically applaud. This movie leads the viewer along, promising to inspire by overcoming the imperfections of men. But in the end delivers a message that will be offensive to Catholics and to all non-woke people of faith.
Last scene was disgraceful. Our country has turned away from God and this is horrible!!!
Metacritic
Conclave is a deliciously immersive experience, a narrative that commands our attention and expects our speculation even if it maintains a distance that allows it all to seem out-of-step, fusty and even darkly humorous at its most extreme.
Conclave is most effective when it’s as shamelessly entertaining as its ambitious characters.
Like any good page-turner, Conclave is full of twists. Some you’ll see coming, and others will genuinely shock you. But this is smart, fiery melodrama.
