Ce film épique suit le parcours de Karol Wojtyla depuis sa jeunesse en Pologne jusqu'à ses derniers jours en tant que Pape. Il explore sa vie dans les coulisses : comment il a touché des millions de personnes et a changé le visage de l'Eglise et du monde : comment il a défendu la dignité de l'homme face à tous les totalitarismes.

Despite all efforts and good intentions, films like this are about the most boring thing that can appear on a movie theater screen or television, outside of the circle of fans of the person. It is simply a biographical film, which is shot without proper distance with a certain amount of pathos and idealization of the character it focuses on. The person disappears and the institution of the papal throne is worshipped. Catholics will naturally be satisfied, but others have no reason to waste time with it. Karol Wojtyla was truly an exceptional person, and if the screenwriter and director could have humanized him, it could have been a truly interesting work. Overall impression: 40%.
