A must watch. The story revolves around newly elected Pope Benedict (Anthony Hopkins) who wants to move out and handover the role to the future Pope Francis (Jonathan Pryce). The film deals with their conflicting personalities and beliefs. It is a fantastic movie with great performances by both the lead stars. While the entire movie is conversational, you will hardly lose interest in the narrative. The dialogues are interesting and so are their characters. A rare film where someone has performed even better than Anthony Hopkins. Jonathan Pryce nails his role as Pope Francis.
