Wow, first, absolutely great cast that played their roles well. They were all brilliant, every single one of them.

The bad, the movie just bashed the Church endlessly and as per the Hollyweird norm, injected their "progressive" message about diversity being a strength and so on.

If you want to be lectured by people that think they know what is best for you and the world, watch this. Hard pass, would never watch this again. It's a deep insult the how the conclave is actually executed and makes men of faith look like monsters that will do anything to get power.

So bad, but I had to keep watching just so i could get my fix of amazing performances.

Is this what Damon has sunk to? Of course Damon plays this unsophisticated blue collar American that is kind of fumbling his way around this city in France.

Of course who is daughter was having sex with was sort of injected in a way that really didn't need to be. She was sleeping with a "light skinned Arab" woman and for some reason that is part of why she is being stonewalled?

Then one of the characters was alluding to how he is a bit slow to her friend and she asked him if he voted for Trump. Seriously? Like she wasn't going to help him if he said yes? When is this mental illness going to end??

Super slow burn that doesn't keep you interested. I never cared about what was going to happen next, nor did I get any sort of attachment to anybody, including Damon himself. He was this cliche uncultured American dullard and roughneck, because of course as we all know roughnecks are not smart people. /sarc

Next time you peek into your phone or as you are reading this, thank a roughneck for providing the power to allow you to do this.
