If the spice extends life, than this film shortens life. The visuals hold up mostly to today’s. The story is bizarre, slow, and hard to follow. If you skipped this one you wouldn’t be missing anything.

David lynch really copied Denis Villeneuve’s Dune. When they use the shields, they look like Roblox characters. So glad dogs still exist in the year 10,191.

well…the cgi was so bad I laughed all the time; the pacing was so fast I couldn’t create any kind of empathy with the characters and I believe if I didn’t watch Villenueve’s Dune (I & II) first I wouldn’t even understand what’s going on; you tried David, you tried.

love the book but omg this Is so unserious I can’t with the shields and asmr monologues. Everyone saying this is better than the Timothée chalamet one is blinded by nostalgia even the director has ptsd 😭

I’m extremely confused but that was awesome (special appreciation to Kyle Maclachlan’s hair and that sick ass guitar riff)

I only watched this because Toto does the soundtrack, they did great (because they are insanely talented), but this movie totally tanks.

I remember watching this movie with my dad growing up. I think it still holds up.

Having only seen the modern Dune movies before and never read the books I liked this a lot. Only real issue is speed running the second half of the story which to me was the more interesting part. Kyle MacLachlan is great. The Roblox shields gave me a giggle.

It’s a good watch. The flaws and the good stuff balance each other out.
You either love it or hate it.

This was probably amazing in the 80s, it doesn’t hold up well though

Saw it during its original theatre run. I remember i was handed a sheet of paper from the ticket person, displaying a list of words from the film with their definitions. lol. I wish i still had that paper. Fun film, about 60% accurate to the books.
