Dune: Part Two (2024)

Pretty much a waste - it's pop-garbage. Do yourself a favor and go watch the Dune mini series from 2000 and then the Children of dune mini series from 2003. More story, more substance. Unless you are concerned primarily with visuals of course, which is all this movie wins in. The two miniseries are a better depiction of the stories in the books, whereas this film is extremely empty and slow and boring.

As I said before, the first part was just a prologue to a big something in the making and here we go! This is a well-crafted movie. 👌 It goes without saying that the narrative is intersecting with a lot of islamic beliefs in a suspicious way; Lisan Al-Gaib, Muad’Dib, Mahdi, Fedaykin, the way of Sujud, women chadors and even the Atreides & Arrakis has something to do with the Maturidis & Iraq. If Edward Said still with us, he would have a lot to say! I found that very unpleasant and that's why the rating.

Wow. Just wow. Loved the sound design, the cinematography, the casting, the character development, loved everything about it. Docked a half star because I would loved to have seen it pick up faster than it did. But nonetheless, an incredible movie that I wanted 30 more minutes of. Also Austin Butler blew me away
