This movie would be amazing, brilliant and even worth re-watching, if only it had a soul and a good actor to play the lead.
All the production values are great and theoretically it ticks all the boxes, but unfortunately for me, watching it was a waste of time. I wanted to love this movie as I love the book, but I ended up leaving cinema happy that "I can go now".
Just a personal opinion, I'm super happy for everyone who loved it, really.

- Is he a Trump supporter?CyBrainX
- He tried positioning himself as Canada's Trump in the Con leadership race a few years ago.i_monk
- Figures. He's so condescending. And needlessly too, Everyone else on that show is a breath of fresh air compared to him.CyBrainX

What a boring movie.
A boring version of Star Wars, but maybe Star Wars ripped it off?
No plot, no humor, rich pale people on a ship fighting poor dumb religious, dirty people for no spices?
No cool technology.
- the sand sex was pretty new for hollywood though.uan
- I don’t think you watched Dune 2.Morning_star
- You sound like a racist ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Hayoth
- Maybe that's your problem? Always surprises me that people are so comfortable being racist.Hayoth
- maybe watching that new Netflix show where people count their fingers and toes for 12 1-hour eps. is more your level?face_melter
- Omaha sometimes you have me convinced that you are the most ignorant person alive.monospaced
- Just because you couldn’t grasp the plot, and expected humor for some stupid fuck reason, doesn’t make this boring.monospaced
- Sounds like John Wick is more your speed. Just dumb action and humor.m for fucktard idiots who only care about that.monospaced
- NO OFFENSE.monospaced
- I'm not a fan of the pacing and plot and the 'love story' was so clunky and not there but its a solid 10 on production design.webazoot
- How does racism apply here? Maybe that was a joke. I haven't seen the second one yet.CyBrainX

- Hans Zimmer composes the most uninteresting music ever, he seems a boring person too, which somehow makes sense...rzu-rzu
- sorry if that sounds harsh, but it's just my opinion, duderzu-rzu
- On the flip side, he's potentially the greatest and most broadly influential musician of the modern era, but yeah, boring guy.DaveO

Watched Part 2 last night. Absolutely loved it...Especially the scenes on Giedi Prime being fillmed in IR.

All in all solid movie... Timothèe Chalamet was eye candy but I really wasn't really feeling his performance. Villenueve probably could have cut 5 or 6 of those Zendaya over the shoulder shots out. Javier Bardem's Stilgar was a standout performance much of the supporting cast's performances were very good.
- Villenueve's world building was more interesting than most of the performances in it. Any time Fremen related lore or action was occurring I was hooked.jonny_quest_lives

Was hoping Villeneuve had used some Jodorowsky influence as that shit was mental, but was still happy with the first instalment. Obviously it was as captivating as all his films, beautifully shot and i never felt bored or overwhelmed either. Better than any of the Lord of the Rings nonsense, but then those stories were not for me! 8.5/10

I still think the best Dune film was the 1984 version (yes, that everyone hates). When you are trying to image world 10,000 years from now it HAS to be weird and no other films made the world weird enough for me. This new Dune film seems to be made exactly for the year 2021 - it looks dated before even leaving the theaters.
- I like your thinking.
Really liked the new one, but some of the freakier elements from Lynch's movie have always stuck with me.PhanLo - God here we go again with this guy. 1984 was a disaster. It was not visionary, it was bad 50ies scifi.tank02
- Your world is already pretty weird thoughIanbolton
- I enjoyed both versions of the movie but I think I know what you mean.MondoMorphic
