I couldn't relate well, maybe because I 'm not Catholic. Have a friend raised Catholic who's a novelist. He liked it. I defer to him.

I'm not a Catholic, but this really warmed my heart. All scenes with Hopkins & Pryce together were super enjoyable.

This film humanizes the figure of the pope while also giving some hints of Francis's own theology and messages about providence and grace.

Obviously well done. Watched about 45 minutes and despite the solid filmmaking, I did not care
