This movie really feels like it tries to remake Lynch's version of the Dune instead of going for purely fresh interpretation of the book. It is fantastic looking movie while still failing to deliver lots of the atmosphere it should be able to convey. For example, you really don't get the the desert feel of the Dune planet - maybe because every scene has extremely busy and bombastic music blasting behind it. Main fault of the movie is that it just cuts off. It doesn't deliver a full and proper story and it uses it's time for beautiful shots that are more of the shallow variety instead of deep pondering kind. It is still OK film but it is nothing special.
