PodBill Just what I expected

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

jc1999 'The Great Beauty' and 'Youth' already proof Sorrentino's potential and natural-born talent for directing, but, once again, he's surprised us with a wonderful series, following the story of such a complex character (Lenny Belardo) masterly portrayed by the wonderful Jude Law. I'd say this is his best work ever! Diane Keaton is also amazing, as always. The cinematography is delightful and the music suits perfectly this work of art. Each and every episode touches your soul. I can't believe 'The Young Pope' didn't get more Golden Globe and Emmy nominations. This is one of the best shows in history, by far. I can't wait for 'The New Pope'!

osirisnl Being raised Catholic, you are being told so many lies as a child this TV show on the other hand is a very accurate portrait of the multinational called Church.The internal conflicts taking places, the humongous egos within, the manipulation, lies and deceive compassing the Vatican society and the rest of the world.Simply put. It is a piece of art. Whimsical, corrosive, decadent, colorful yet funny and surrealistic.

joefatica The Hero leaves the comforts and certainties of home, takes chances, makes mistakes, trusts and doubts in his abilities and judgments, makes enemies and friends looses what he loves and gains love and respect in the end returning full circle to some realization. And the pain we carry with us where ever we go;let's not forget that? This show is beautiful. I love the characters. A great ensemble cast. If it doesn't show us exactly how things are it shows us how they should be and that's important. Great storytelling!

General Guttering I thoroughly enjoyed this series. If it were not for the nudity and sex scenes, (not vulgar but there), I would recommend my church to watch this. The story line is complex, but comes together at the end. The main focus I would say is to bring God to glory, and experience it with the Pope in his rise in faith and his love for God. He remains consistent in his faith, even if he does not realize or show it. A fallible human side is exposed. It is not a story about religion, or a religious story. Strong characters played by strong support actors, makes this story a must watch.
