I watched all 2 hours and 46 minutes of this film in a state of rapture. Our theater was silent. No one moved, no one spoke. No one got up to use the restroom. It was as if we were all transported to Arrakis together, and we had no choice but to experience every moment of it.
And it was glorious. To say this film is magnificent is an understatement. To say it's phenomenal does not fully explain its effect.
Every shot is tuned precisely to what we need to see. Every sound and musical cue is perfectly matched with its visual component. The acting is flawless across the board. The cinematography is absolutely brilliant.
Almost three hours of movie, and I wanted more. We all wanted more.
In my opinion, there are only three genre-defining fantasy stories: Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings, and Dune. After seeing Dune: Part One and this magnificent sequel, if I had to pick just one universe, I would choose the universe of Arrakis, of Caladan, of Paul and Chani, of Feyd and Baron, of Princess Irulan, every time.
Long Live the Fighters.
