When the pope puts his soul in Mary's hands and beseaches her to secure for him his salvation. That's blasphemy. It makes a point. This is not the type of thing that made it into Mel's movie. So I think it goes overboard to say it's "too catholic". I was actually bracing myself to see that sort of thing show up. I'm glad it did not or I'd have asked for my money back.

He asks her to pray for him, not to secure for him his salvation, that can only be done by God. We human beings ask other humans living or dead to help us try to come near achieving the perfection that is Christ
