Rating: 9 out of 10, That rare example of a sequel being
better than the original (think Empire Strikes Back level). Dune is a really
dense story with so many concurrent themes and plots intertwined. After earlier
versions I thought it would be impossible to adequately translate this beloved
story to the screen. I was wrong. The director brings home the Atreides
comeback story with style, fantastic acting, and landmark cinematography.
Chalamet continues to impress as one of, if not the best, young actor around as
the central figure of Paul Muad ‘Dib. My favorite characters from the books
were the Fremen and they are finally portrayed with all their lethality. While
this sets up the inevitable third film , it could also serve as a fitting
conclusion. The best movie I’ve seen in a very long time.
MVP:
Chalamet, best Muad d’ib Ever
