This week, we're stepping into the shadowy corridors of power with Conclave! Directed by Edward Berger (All Quiet on the Western Front), this gripping political thriller takes us behind the locked doors of the Vatican as a secretive election unfolds. When the Pope dies unexpectedly, the world’s most powerful cardinals gather to select his successor—only to find themselves entangled in a web of ambition, secrecy, and hidden agendas.

Starring Ralph Fiennes as the conflicted Cardinal Lawrence, Stanley Tucci as the enigmatic Cardinal Bellini, John Lithgow as the shrewd Cardinal Tremblay, and Sergio Castellitto as the calculating Cardinal Tedesco—alongside Isabella Rossellini and Lucian Msamati—Conclave transforms the papal election into a high-stakes chess game where faith and politics collide.

But does Conclave deliver a suspenseful and thought-provoking drama, or does it crumble under the weight of its own intrigue? And as the smoke rises over the Vatican, we have just one question… But Is Conclave Good?

This week, we're back from a long hiatus and diving straight into the dark and chilling world of Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu! Starring Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp, and Willem Dafoe, this long-anticipated gothic horror reimagines the silent-era classic with Eggers’ signature atmospheric dread and meticulous period detail. The film follows the terrifying Count Orlok as he casts his ominous shadow over 19th-century Europe, bringing with him an ancient darkness that consumes all in its path. Eggers, known for his hauntingly immersive storytelling in films like The Witch and The Lighthouse, brings a fresh yet faithful take on this legendary vampire tale.

But amid the chilling cinematography and brooding performances, does Nosferatu succeed in sinking its fangs into audiences, or does it fade into the shadows of its predecessor? And more importantly... But Is Nosferatu Good?
