Just took the family to see DUNE, having heard good reviews. Take my advice, fill a large bucket with sand then spend 2.5 hours with your head in it..far more fun. A more apt title would be DUNG. How on earth, (or other far less visually appealing planet) did all those top rate actors get duped into participating? Overall, the experience was akin to staring at a dirty pond. I wanted to turn up the brightness. The fight scenes were sub B movie. The score was interesting at first but totally overbearing within an hour. The plot is routine, the characters hackneyed and the dialogue utterly dull. Oh and how do worms grow so big from eating mostly sand and metal?? The whole thing was an abomination, not saved by massive hunking CGI spaceships that looked like something Isambard Kingdom Brunel might have built in 1917. Go see Free Guy, folks, and see how a movie can be fun, entertaining, novel and good value.
