To film fans - A very beautiful and well written film, unfortunately falls a little towards the end after a strong start, and robust progression.
However this is a 2 part film so proceed to the movie with that mindset, because there is going to be a lot more in the 2nd featurette.
Perfect casting, perfect performance. There was a difficulty in understanding the words from some of the characters.
Unsure if this was a creative decision or editing error, but the movie looked too dim at some parts and could use a bit more brightness I feel, to capture facial expressions and setting better, nevertheless the cinematography is one of the most beautiful I have seen, this truly is picturesque beautiful like the milky way at night.
To Dune fans - Frank Herbert would be so happy, the film captures the novel's spirit, and you will truly feel Paul's wit, anger, sadness and journey to Muad'Dib, thanks to Timothee Chalamet and the production.
Expect few minor changes; Sardaukars are more dangerous, Baron doesn't look as disgusting, Fremens are much accurate and cooler, memorable lines from the novel are not in the film, dialogues spoken from different characters than the original from the novel.
We all know how difficult it is to adapt Dune, if people though Lord of the Rings was hard, they clearly never read Dune. Do not expect perfection because the lore is so deep, it would require multiple prequels, or a prelude to Dune prologue explaining the vast universe of it. All and all, you are going to love it.
Looking forward to the 2nd part, and hopefully the rest of Frank Herbert's Dune in movies.
