6.5/10
Here's why... (Mild Spoilers)
From a person who has never read the Dune books I was expecting a very good movie because of all the hype from the AMAZING trailer. I went to the theaters excited for Dune, I even watched a video explaining Dune beforehand. The first 10 minutes really did not hook me in, I almost fell asleep not going to lie. I know people might say well it's not supposed to be an action packed movie. I understand but the trailers made it seem like it was going to be an action packed movie with a bunch of fighting scenes. Oscar Isaac carried the movie, his character was one of the only reasons I stayed awake. When Oscar's character Leto dies, it did not seem very emotional to me. And his death was for nothing because the bad guy he tried to kill still ends up living after bathing in some black goo. Anyway, It's a movie I need to re watch, to fully know if I like it or not. But if you are like me, a person that likes action packed thrillers with great climaxes and have never read the Dune books, this may not be the movie for you.
