For anyone non familiar with the tale: A scammer gave the emperor new clothes that could only be seen by "special" people, so even tho the emperor was naked, everyone clapped in order to seem "special" until a kid yelled and laughed "the emperor is naked "
Dune is a mediocre film. The first two hours are great, the third hour is a shameless 45 minute commercial. Character Development? Who dat? The shot of the protagonist with his face superimposed in the most terrible attempt at VFX in recent film history, I cant believe they allowed that to be in the final cut. It ruins an otherwise technically flawless movie.
Without the second half of the story, Dune part 1 is white savior Incel propaganda, there is no way around it, there just isnt, and knowing they weren't sure there would be a second part where theyd tackle that... I believe it has a good rating simply becos most people who enjoy it are racists. Completely unable to have an an opinion of the film itself, but on how the whites are the privileged saviors who will lead the brown sand n... people... into victory. Without the second part "that is the story", that is the content of this film, no one cares if you read the books, we talk about this particular film. But it's biggest sin was simply not ending at the 2 hour mark, there was absurdly nothing relevant or entertaining after.
