Well-directed dialogue drama between two opposites within the world of the church. Hopkins is good and Pryce is fantastic. The film as a whole is very beautiful to watch.

Considering that this is really a 2-hour conversation, it is remarkably captivating. Hopkins, with a little help by the make-up department, is out of this world!

Enjoyable two-hander feels like a GRUMPY OLD MEN variation - while both Hopkins and Pryce are fantastic, and worthy of the time spent, they can't quite overcome the faltering slightness of the execution, with Meirelles using too much flash to overcome the lack of substance (the hand-held zooming becomes incredibly irritating). Deals with Francis' evolution in superficial (sometimes confusing) ways, with Hopkins reigning supreme simply by virtue of having a more modest character arc to invoke.

Exquisite performances from the two leads (Pryce is particularly superb), but - those aside - it didn't really hook me.

Pretty watchable -- Meirelles makes sure we get dizzy with so much fast cutting and shaky cam like he is directing a fucking Greengrass movie kkkkkkk -- and the comic parts seem less ridiculous than expected, but the flashbacks, Jesus Christ. Despite the engrossing historical and political background of Bergoglio's youth, this plays like a mere collection of "inspiring", beautiful speeches than an engrossing chronicle about the biggest change in Vatican in I don't know how many decades.

Far from great but I enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. I expected a phoned-in performance from Hopkins and was shocked by how much he moved me, especially playing a man I find so distasteful. Pryce is great, too — even when he’s the protagonist, his instinct to defer to his scene partner remains intact and that’s the perfect temperament for an actor playing Francis. The flashbacks are awful, but whenever the movie was just two old virgins yelling at each other I was totally rapt.

What a joy to see these two actors doing their thing. The film in itself is a bit "small" and - especially in the beginning - slow moving, with the last 20 minutes being the best.

Filmin papalara olan insani yaklaşımını beğendim.genelde hep ulaşılamaz ve oldukça resmi görünen bu din adamlarının aslında herkes gibi çalkantılı bir iç dünyalarının olduğunu gösteriyor film.anlatılanlar ne kadar gerçeklik barındırıyor orası ayrı bir tartışma konusu elbette.öte yandan meirelles’in aslında çok seyir zevki vaad etmeyen bu hikayeyi oldukça başarılı bir kurgu,yönetmenlik ve oyunculukla önümüze sunması da filmin en büyük artıları.

Did I just watch Pryce and Hopkins deliver the best performances of the year? Maybe, maybe not, but they did anchor the film perfectly. The settings are absolutely gorgeous and I thought the use of language was interesting. Overall its maybe a little long, as I did find my attention drifting occasionally in places. Though for the most part its very solid filmmaking bolstered by two of the years best performances.

Frequently very loud directing choices (dutch angles, usage of black and white, sound mixing choices, several strange edits) complicate what should be simple. The film also does the Catholic Church a service that it probably doesn't deserve. It is carried mostly by the great performances of the popes coming to some sort of common ground in faith, empathy is uplifted by the end somewhat (even if the film is wildly inaccurate).

The direction is often too decorative and persuasive, which is distracting for a film championing themes of charity and simplicity. But sweet Jesus the dialogos structure of two dissonant faiths achieving some kind of reconciliatory harmony by the end, backed by two commanding performances, was like bread and wine to this weary soul. Yet I can't help but think how much harder the material would hit if it played like My Dinner with Andre: Infallible Edition.

The scenes with Pryce and Hopkins are electric and near perfect. The rest is clumsily put together. Meirelles’ direction is too playful and distracts more than it contributes. So how do you rate the sum of one hour of powerhouse performances featuring two of the greatest actors, and one hour of average tv drama. I focus on the first.

Hopkins and Pryce are great, and their dialog scenes sparkle. Absolutely everything else is a complete bore. You could honestly cut half this film, if not more.

Just Hopkins and Pryce traipsing around palaces, cathedrals and gardens showing off their acting chops. That's pretty much it, but it still makes for a movie that's substantially better than the average flick out there.

Faith and politics aside, this is a heart warming conversation about humanity, friendship and our relationship with the sublime. Both performances were amazing. I am not sure how accurate the portrayal is but frankly I don't really care.
