This is a simple and short review: 'Go see this movie, in the theatre if possible and on a very big screen. We both loved it.'
We spent the last week in Khao Lak (heaven), but the week before, we watched "Dune Part 1" and then saw "Part 2" in the theatre on the day it opened. It was grand and epic storytelling on a scale I've not seen in ages. Both "Dune" movies are transportive like "Titanic" in 1998 and the original "Avatar" in 2009 (which I saw four times, including once at the Chinese Theatre). I've not read any of the "Dune" books, but I was able to grok what was going on (mainly), and while I haven't always been a Timothée Chalamet fan, he was excellent here, as was Zendaya, Rebecca Ferguson, Javier Bardem, and many others. Everything about the movie is epic and it's well worth a cinema visit.
