Was absolutely garbage. When a 150 Minute movie spends 100 minutes of it with long drawn out shots that tries too hard to be like Christopher Nolan without the great script and character development, you know you have a problem. This rendition of dune is just horrible. Dune is the original GoT. The politics, the characters, the spice are all things that make Dune special and all the things this movie lacks. Having Paul portrayed as a scared, emo, frail teen is pathetic and a far cry from the arrogant playboy prince who had to grow up. What is most criminal is how horribly utilized and enveloped Skarsgards baron was. This character had all but 10 lines. It’s pathetic. Key plots twists and dialogue from the book, that made the book special are non existent to say the least. Where is Irulan? Where is the Emperor Shadam? The spacing guild? All these things make Dune. The spice must flow was NEVER once mentioned. Spice is the key and it’s an afterthought here. If you think this movie is good, you should absolutely rethink your life. And yes, I will be toxic because this movie is just boring. If you want a decent video representation of dune, watch the old Sci Fi miniseries.
