  • A wonderful story told on a high quality media.

    This is an excellent movie. It is a story of faith, courage and the occasional weakness and vanity of human men. I saw this movie for the first time on the night before my wedding, 51 years ago when the movie was new. Sadly my wife is no longer here to enjoy it with me. She passed away last Labour Day weekend. Maybe that makes the movie and the story more meaningful. The Pope in this story is almost a prediction of Pope Francis. I am not Catholic, but the story introduces us to characters who are not members of the faith. Perhaps I have gone to far with my evaluation of this movie. From a material view, the artwork on the case is beautifully done, the disc is crystal clear. But the true value is in the story, the primary reason for purchasing it.

  • Best chance to walk with a Pope

    Watch this, gather the family & sit around the TV, & learn about the Pope of the Catholic Church, whether or not you are Catholic, this movie is beautifully & accurately filmed. The storyline is often strained & dated, the ending is almost silly, but the power of love & the love of God is there. Very very worth watching, & owning to watch again, because it is a human story. Most movies are easy to review but I have tried to find an approach to this review. I give up & just say, Watch Anthony Quinn as the Pope, David Jansen as the reporter, and the Vatican as the setting, then you try to write a review. Because with all its faults, this film is hard to put down.

  • The Shoes of the Fisherman

    This movie is one of the best of it's kind to hit the market in recent years. It is one that captures the imagination and is not only entertaining, but in many ways so realistic. I would recommend this one to everyone, regardless of their religion. The acting is super and the material matter keeps one on edge and involved with the story line.

  • Even more relevant now considering the Pope in this is from Ukraine.

    A very good movie that is even more relevant now considering the Pope in this is from Ukraine and the Russians are trying to manipulate him.

  • Russian Pope !!!!

    Little Dated Story of the Papacy...Done before the election of a Polish Pope...The story relates what might happen if a Russian priest who is in the Gulag is released by the Soviet Leader to inform the World of a Problem with Red China...He travels to Rome where he is elected Pope...Big Production Values ...likely appeals to a limited audience but it is Intriguing ....A product of the Cold war!!!
