Paul Atreides, a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. (Letterboxd)
The Messiah narrative thread with Paul and the Fremen is a bit white-saviour-y, but will hopefully be nipped in the bud in the sequel, and the plot is otherwise excellent: a twisting tapestry of planet-hopping politics, breathtaking sci-fi/action, moody mysticism, and compelling coming-of-age/family drama fare. Strongly acted (Paul and parents in particular), with incredible sound and visuals (lots of big, immersive movie moments–the nighttime assault on Arrakeen being one highlight).
8/10 (Great)

I really enjoyed Dune Part 1 and though it was a fantastic adaptation of the book. So glad that Part 2 has been confirmed and can’t wait to see this big budget version of the saga completed.

The book is really good, well worth checking out if you get time. Excited for Part 2 as well, especially seeing what an amazing job they did with Part 1 🙂
