Ratings and reviews

I don't think that he's going to be as "well thought of" as you seem to think. Since when does a Pope say to stop procreation? There have been several .. bizarre instances.

This is a very good film. As I suspected, there will be detractors, those who are against this pope, or the Catholic church, or any mention of God. It's ok, nobody has to like it. But for Catholics, people of faith, or of good will, or anyone who wants to see a portrait of the man, you should watch this film. It has such a broad scope, very topical, touching on issues that affect the whole world. But it's all very relatable and personal, as it follows the travels and thoughts of one influential leader. For me, it was a moving experience. [This seems trivial, but I wish the English subtitles were easier to read!] Still, I'm glad to give it 5 stars!!

The only Pope in history to crack down on pedophelia in the church, and tries to bring the religion into the 21st century. Probably the only good to come out of the Catholic religion in a very long time, if ever
