Be sure to watch this video next: /watch/UxRF2AP_gup_F Dune (2021) Movie Review: The Salty Nerds debate on whether the Denis Villeneuve Dune film is a masterpiece of cinema, or a total hot mess of an adaptation. We've already gotten a Dune movie from David Lynch, which was an obvious influence on Villeneuve's Dune, but not many people (except Kadish, apparently) care for the Lynch version. So is Dune 2021 better? Or just different? In this Dune 2021 breakdown, the Nerds attempt a Dune ending explained (spoiler, there is no actual ending) and a Dune recap of its best and worst moments. Overall, the Nerds agree the film looks beautiful, but the table is split on whether the movie is actually "good." What is your Dune 2021 movie review? Did you like it? Hate it? If so, why? Let us know in the comments!

Jude JuJu had the best taste and solid arguments defining this movie. Other guys were just projecting their expectations. 4
I'm with Kadish on this one. (And I also love the Lynch version, despite its flaws)
And I was pleasantly surprised with the visuals, the scale (it really showcases how big things are and how tiny humans are)
But I found it lacking - I mean....for a movie that takes twice as long to tell basically the same story as the Lynch' version, while giving the about the same information/worldbuilding, it struggles to justifify itr length, which can be mostly attributed to the long, extended, potentially pretentious slow motion shots that Villeneuve uses. And mind you, I don't mind slow movies.
So I walked out of the Cinema with mixed feelings. Yes. It's awesome, but it's also flawed.
And one gripe is the music. While I think the music good and adequate, I never found it to stand out -especially amongst other movie scores. It doesn't seem to have an identity. I does a few things right, it's weird, it "alien", but when I walked out the cinema, with mixed feelings, I wasn't humming the theme -something I did with for instance Jurassic Park. I don't remember any tune. ... 1
The movie actually did a better job at that than the first book did. ... 1
It is amazing to listen to all of these discussions about the story, the film and the saga, and not one peep about wokeness or intersectionality. ... 1
