As a fan of the novels and the first movie version, I had reservations. They were unfounded! The complexity and nuance of this version need make no apologies, it delivers an excellent sci-fi movie that takes time for characters and plot to develop. Can’t wait for the second instalment.
The cinematography was excellent, the direction and adaption were superb. I couldn’t have asked for a better movie.
This version of dune is the best adaptation of the book to date. Enjoyable but sets could have been better lighted and detailed.
It's Spice World for a new generation. Lots of classic hits from Mel. B. and the Girls on the soundtrack, the best part of this movie.
Took time to tell a story and let actors act. They rarely make movies like this anymore.
Extremely slow-paced; lots of same-old "epic comic-book violence"; acting performances are dull and all the same; Chalamet unimpressive. Too much sand.
Original was better.
You'd think a movie with so much money behind it could have afforded to light the sets. Everything looks like it was shot through a bowl of pea soup, and the ineffectual performance by the picture's lead pretty much sinks it.
Beautiful, long, impressive, majestic and serious - very, very serious.
The visuals.
