Review – Conclave

Despite its immense importance, the process of selecting the next Pope isn’t inherently all that interesting. Novelist Robert Harris stirs in a range of intrigue to spice things up and make a political point or two, but it still doesn’t amount to enough for anyone to sacrifice two hours of their lives. However, the production values make this worth a look. The sets, costumes and other visual elements are way more fun than the characters and plot. Mildly amusing
