Conclave is a fine movie with excellent performances by all the actors involved. The ending of the film was telegraphed early on, so there was not so much of a surprise by the final selection of the next Pope. However, the final twist seemed unnecessary. There did not seem to be a sufficient build-up to it, that made it feel like a genuine twist, but was more of an add-on. Beyond that, the drama between all the main candidates was compelling, though I thought the conservative Italian was more of a caricature for them to use as a foil, rather than a standout on his own. There are some interesting visuals and uses of color that I did not expect. I'm sure this will be an Oscar contender, but I'm not sure it has the depth to actually win anything.
