    Absolute cinema!

    The last time I cried this much over a movie was «The Whale» with Brendan Fraser in 2023, and overall, it was my first time in a cinema.

    When I went in, I didn’t expect such a level of dedication and immersion in the story.

    Everything was incredible.

    I’ll be quick.

    The film is quite interesting, but that’s about it.
    They didn’t fully develop it - it started strong but fell flat.

    Everyone will take away something different, as with any film, but for many, this one might provoke offense, confusion, disgust, anger, and so on.

    Still, I found a few elements I genuinely liked - specifically the musical moments, Karla Sofia Gascon (and I’m talking about her performance, not her personality, which deserves to be canceled), and the wonderful Zoe Saldana.

    In the end, it just didn’t come together as a solid, well-rounded film where all the elements truly clicked.

    Amazing, spectacular, masterpiece! 🇻🇦
    Who would have thought that the idea of a Papal Conclave could be turned into a light detective story, touching on modern issues and even adding some good jokes and funny moments to ease the tension?

    Besides the rich chocolate, seemingly from those very Swiss factories, this candy also contains nuts - symbolizing the fantastic work on the soundtrack, cinematography and shot composition.

    My applause. Bravo! 👏🏻
    Give it all the Oscars!
