Kristy Puchko Mashable Conclave is a sophisticated and sharply enthralling thriller. Sep 19, 2024 Full Review Bilge Ebiri New York Magazine/Vulture Sinfully entertaining. Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Johnny Oleksinski New York Post A scandal-stuffed mystery that depicts Catholic cardinals as power-hungry politicos who put their self-interests ahead of their billion-strong flock. Rated: 3/4 Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Kyle Pinion Screen Rex The best ending I’ve seen in years. People were literally screaming. Sep 19, 2024 Full Review Sean Boelman FandomWire Writer Peter Straughan and director Edward Berger have taken a story that could have been incredibly dry and turned it into not just one of the most compelling thrillers of the year but also one of the year’s best pictures as a whole. Rated: 9/10 Sep 19, 2024 Full Review Jeffrey Zhang Strange Harbors An overwrought score, a goofily thin election year allegory, and an outrageous final twist are only a few moving parts of its manufactured gravitas — Conclave leaves just enough wiggle room to suggest it knows how silly it all is. Rated: C+ Sep 17, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
