    I’m joking lmao. But cant see why someone wouldn’t like it tbh.

    Seriously though? You really can’t see why? Cmon

    Everybody here just seemed bored

    This was such a disappointment

    Denis Villeneuve was not the right guy to direct this.

    Very grey, washed out and dreary. Boring characters with boring performances. I didn’t give a s*** about a single character in this film. also, barely anything really happens. It was honestly a challenge to push myself through this

    I will say there were some nice shots but that’s about it

    Lynch had the better dune film unfortunately. I really wanted to like this, especially after being impressed with BR 2049

    I hope part 2 redeems it

    This damn near my exact review.

    What did you like so much about it? I’m asking honestly

    I didn’t read the book btw. I’ve heard that people who read the book enjoyed this more, but a good adaption doesn’t require to read its source material

    (I know you didnt ask me but) this movie only covers the early parts of the book. It's kinda like an intro and I feel like It introduced the world in a really cool and concise way with great direction and ambience in every scene. I didn't dive into the book until after my watch but you can feel that its a lot of story left which makes sense cause it only ends halfway through the book

    Incredible worldbuilding and visuals. I loved how well paced it was. I found the characters to be quite gripping especially with Lady Jessica and Chalamets character. And I actually loved how plotless it was. So many times these sci fi stories have to follow a generic A to B plot and it always tanks everything else going on. Denis just allows this to be a slow paced mystifying work that at heart is about exploring a new world, the relations between the different factions, and the Altreides dynamic and Paul’s growth rather than turning into a generic story we’ve seen over and over again. In the theaters, it looks like a big immersive movie but at home it feels really artistic and I love that Denis was able to showcase spectacle in such a way unlike something like Gravity which is just unwatchable at home

    There’s just a lot of really stunning sequences throughout the film and Denis is amazing at really immersing you with very creative cinematography. I’ve never read the book either so I don’t get that comment

    After part 2 comes out, part 1 will be much more appreciated

    People complain that this film lacks action or resolution , but all of the world building and set up is necessary and will be appreciated once the whole story comes out

    yeah definitely it's a long very dense story

    still missing the climax so it feels a little hollow but yeah if they do as good of a job with the last half it's going to be an epic 5 hour telling of the story
