    Finally saw part 2, and it was absolutely amazing. This the kind of film I go out of my way to see on the big big screen, and I’m so glad I did. The sound design makes it visceral, and the already intense action scenes have such impact you really feel it. It’s hard for me to get through some of these scenes and even comprehend how someone could label it boring. It is an epic like I’ve not seen before, and the build up for the next (final?) installment was hear pounding. Wow.

    • This was the vision this film deserves. It really brought to life one of the finest sci fi stories of all time and did it justice.monospaced
    • I can’t wait to see it.Ramanisky2
    • Not boring...just a piss poor script and story. I agree that the cinematography and sound design were both stunning. Some of the acting was also pretty lame.utopian
    • I was hoping they would get more into the sci-fi aspect of it. The effects of spice, their relationship with it, bending space/travel, spice guild. None of thattoemaas
    • But a nice film either waytoemaas

    • It’s hard for me to accept this opinion it’s a bad story when we’re talking about one of the best stories written.monospaced
    • Agree that the importance of spice relayed, but not explained well.monospaced
    • It reminds me of what an occasion going to the cinema really is. I have a decent set up at home with projector and whatnot, but you can't beat IMAXIanbolton
    • Denis Villeneuve really knows how to build a world to get lost in. Even some of the shitty dialogue didn't really bother meIanbolton
    • best part was Stilgar and he's unwavering believe. lolpango
