Absolutely a visual spectacular that ought to be experienced on the big screen. I thought the first movie did not fit enough story in, this movie squeezes an overwhelming amount.
I would have given it 5 stars but there was a book change that I questioned. If you haven't read the book or seen the 1984 version, it won't bother you.
The acting, visuals and action are astounding. Do yourself a favour and experience the shaking of your theatre chair as the cast capture and ride worms through the desert dunes.
