Why do many uncultured people think this movie is a remake? It's simply a fresh take on how to adapt the greatest sci fi best seller of all time. I say this because I've read the book 3 times and it's my favorite science fiction book.
Ands the people who only watch non stop action movies like fast and dumb or comic book movies with fast rhythm are not the right people to review this type of movies, like Dune , Blade Runner , Scorsese , Kubrick movies and other ´´´´Artistic ´´´´ movies and shows.
That said, this movie makes the '84 movie an unintentional comedy. Director Denis Villeneuve did what seemed to be impossible, adapting Frank Herbert's book which is considered one of the most difficult to adapt for other media.
And the actors and actresses are great, especially the supporting actors like Stellan Skarsgard as Baron Harkonnen and Jason Momoa as Duncan Idaho.
May the already announced part 2 be even more successful at the box office and be more recognized by the public and may the part 1 make more people read the book, because reading is what is missing in today's world on a large scale.
