With Sorrentino and his collaborators being so sure-footed on imagery and music, his shortcomings in story and atmosphere seem diminished, less noticeable.

The pizazz with which everything is presented, visually stimulating with a wry sense of humor working underneath, makes The New Pope a welcome, if not wholly necessary, continuation.

Sorrentino interrogates core aspects of the human condition - death, grief, loneliness, suffering, sex - through a lens of religiosity. It's excellent.

It's series like this that makes one realize the delineation between good guy and bad guy is often infinitely more complicated than we'd like to believe.

The greatest indulgence on TV today.

The New Pope isn't just about religion. It's about power, business and gangsters. It's the characters and their humanity, or lack thereof, that are most important.

The whole thing is so immaculate that it risks holding the viewer at arm's length. But then the director will gently lance us with a moment of emotional truth...

Various hours of Jude Law walking around in boxers is enough to adore false gods. [Full Review in Spanish]
January 07, 2020
It's a show with so much at its disposal and one that uses all that to do what it's done before, less well. It may have Law and Malkovich as an odd-couple sort of father and son. But this time around, it lacks spirit.

Despite the sordid, festering material that the series explores, what ultimately emerges is sheer beauty.

The New Pope would be much more enjoyable if it were streamlined into the five or six episodes necessary to effectively tell the story that needs to be told. Instead, we get nine, at least three of which just tread water.
